I’ve been off Booze caffeine and junk food for just over a week now as I was feeling rundown. The first three four day where hell but today I feel like I could take on the world!
Action Hero!

****, that isnt down to the cheek bone is it?!!!!!
****, that isnt down to the cheek bone is it?!!!!!
there was shit loads of blood everywhere, i can tell you that!
It's quite off putting riding a nadgery section thats already covered in blood 🙂
Hope your fit for Gisburn on Weds Junkyard
the blood was simply to show you the wrong line and enable you get over it smoothly hope it helped
Shoulder worse in terms of bike riding the cheek is a flesh wound and yes cut to the bone and bled till it was stitched
Will the Shoulder be ok for Wednesday mate ?
highly unlikely but I will decide on the day
I amy be able to mice around everything ...so should still be faster than you 😉
Will load up GPS and lend it someone for the route if I am not going
OK mate... hope your well enough.
i am ok will have a scar but considering did OK out o fit
Looked at my helmet today and it is cave din on the side that hit the ground thank God I was wearing that or I would have been out cold minimum and air lifted /black bagged out of there.
Nice route BTW give me a shout when you are doing another. ME, Toss....mmmmmm might give weds miss if your are going 😆
If your shoulders stiff I'd give it a few more days- matey had an innocous fall and ended up aggrevating bruised ligiments in his shoulder leading to surgery 😯
Bloody hell lads where did you take him.
You know he is only just getting into riding away from Rivvy 🙂
Hope you heal quickly Johnnie
are you giving Lowey the cakes for Wednesday?
You really didn't expect any sympathy from here did you?
I'd also get a new blade for that razer
Never mind the cake, I was thinking about the GPS!
ME, Toss....mmmmmm might give weds miss if your are going
I'm not that much of a Jonah!! Remember mate, nearly all of us fell off at one point or another on Sunday, even Donk!! you were just unlucky.
(of course Deejay didnt. Probably the smoothest rider I have ever seen!)
I've got a copy.
You'll do for me mate.
Vortex... I'll email you my mobile to make it easier to meet up.
Just out of interest what does hora do for a job that is so stressful?
no probs.
Stone... IIRC employment agency, Mark, correct me if I;m wrong.
i feel so unloved 😥
suspect I will be at home though without some miracoulous recovery.
Dont know what hurts more my injury or missing DONKS crash ...he would have been so far in front I would not have seen him anyway.
We had a comedy moment getting his bike off the car as we both went to lift it and realised we could not as we only had one arm each!
I know nothing about hora but this thread, in places, sounds like school boy bullying. Seems he's still improving his riding and won't be winning the megavalanche soon, but has he actually done anything to harm anyone??

i assure you mate, on my part this is nothing but good old fashioned piss taking.
which when you look and ride like me is a very regular occurance.... 8)
Hora bashing is [u]the[/u] STW sport, you would of thought he would of changed his name by now {like that would work sealion} but the guy just likes to be known, I bet he's tossing off to the STW video thread as we [s]speak[/s] type 😉
Its the internet. Same as down the pub. Its not meant to be serious. If someone comes onto a forum and expects it to be the realworld then they spend too much time online than with people (all IMO).
What STW video thread? Anyhow, how come you lot get to ride with two lovely lasses and all I get normally are sweaty and sweary-p*sstaking blokes?! 😕 8)
Here are the rest of the photo's from a fab day out.

Hora before he took the 'short' cut - click the pic for more

It's all light hearted banter, I like Hora, but he's been "riding" for several years now. I know we're all constantly improving, but come on.....
Great pics as ever Dave!
nbt Ive been riding since the early 90's, broke my elbow in 94- came back in 2000 after concentrating on a hobby of beer and girls for 6yrs, broke my arm/shoulder/ribs in 2003, cracked the same arm in 2007. Everytime I seem to be getting fit I go and overdo it ffs.
Gary - Indeed, a Leopard does not eh?

talk about a giant amongst men. 😯
Cracking pictures Dave
Very jealous, those pics look great, what was your route? Did you start in Longsdale, go up Gatesgarth, Nanbield then drop into Kentmere?
hora - come out with us again on [url= http://www.singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/stw-north-york-moors-ride-2nd-august-2009-interested ]THIS[/url] ride in August - it has a lot less climbing. By the time the climbs do come round its too far out to bail!
Deejay what are those tyres you were recommending?
wors, jeesus. Thats the first thing I said to him when he came over to my car. Well the sun was blotted out and as I looked up I gulped and said '****ing ell your a big lad arent you'!!! 😀
Is there a picture of that big fella next to the word 'Clydesdale' in the dictionary?
Deejay what are those tyres you were recommending?
Maxxis ADvantage 2.1 - Graham likes them too 🙂
Haddock,
Parked Stavely (wheelbase), Green Quarter Fell, Skeggles Water, Sadgill, Gatescarth, Hawsewater, Nan Bield, Kentmere, Kentmere Hall, Whiteside End, ending on the descent to Ullthwaite Bridge.
Iowey - Thankyou, I'll have a right old obsess of the map later! 😉
I think that is the first time I have seen a picture of Ton alongside normal humans for scale. I am starting to understand why he has so much difficulty getting a bike that doesn't flex. 🙂
i have a gps file of the route if required though i missed the last bit after kentmere.
Aye. It looks like ton could snap the handlebars like a twigglet 🙂
[i]Woooaa woooa wooooaa camouflage. things are never quite the way they seem[/i]
Ton, were you always tall at school? I remember picking a fight with a kid who was a 14yr old in a 6ft2 bricklayers body (developed well early)- he chucked me over his shoulder and I broke my wrist!
