    When I first did it several weeks ago no one had been over it for ages but you could still see the paint marks on the trees and faint trail marks, this time someone had been out cleaning it up a bit and painting new arrows, it's a bit tight and twisty for my liking but it's good practice

    the other trails are much more well known and used
    We were on it about a month ago, with Linton no less! One of the guys I ride with has been redoing the arrows. It's a good change from the bike park. I notice no clips from you on the main climbs up the bank further upstream?

    I think GOPRO does not show just how tight and twisty that trail is in real life. Go fast and you will say hi to a tree real quick. Ask me how I know.....!

    Mainly because I fucked up the loading to youtube and I'd deleted it from the computer and camera before I realised how shit the quality was

    Good day out at Waikari school ride today, Riding the RMX did two laps following Pete on his IT200 and then one with Mike on his Beta, first one we cut out the hill by accident so we did it on the second lap, it was much easier last year going down it but didn't cause too many problems for us

    It was a good ride. Definitely easier going this way around. Bloody steep in places.

    Great day at the Craig Pickering ride today, did a couple of full laps, last way one trying way to hard to stay in front of Mike on the Beta, even tried a couple of the hill climbs

    It was a great ride. 2 laps and 2/3rds of one of the hill climbs for me!

    I managed the first one I tried but ran out of talent on that one, great circuit though, last time I did it on the Big Block DR143, this time we had another Chris with us who did the main loop on his TF125

    He was looking well fucked on the 2nd one and it didn't get better latter one

    Here a mish mash of the two laps from my POV

    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.
