anyone else going today? i'll be in church rd cp at 10-30 for a chilled pootle
Damn The day I decide to love up the missus you want a ride.
Though if I don't hang about I'll get out.
not today mate... Ps, I dont know if you have ridden it, but where we went through the gate last time right at the dstart, if you go through the one on your right instead. Then look out for some ( i think the 1st bit) singletrack on the right hand side.
It's good fun.
I'll be out with my daughter starting from the Sandy Lane car park although closer to 11 as she ain't up yet (Yoof of today blah blah blah 🙄 )
HI ken, did you used to live in Hemel? I think i may know you...
Nice one.
Good to ride with some new faces.
Shame some of the riders out today couldn't leave their egos at home. Still I'm gonna keep smiling 😀
was fun today. why are so many mtber's so miserable? if you cant smile during your own leasure time find something you enjoy 🙂 🙂
The level of ignorance and misery on the trails is hilarious. I once said hello to each and every rider as they passed in large group but none of them saw fit to utter any sort of response to my greeting. Nowadays if meself and the folk I ride with encounter the sad faced, we just up the volume and cheerily shout hello in unison whilst beaming in exagerrated fashion from ear to ear. Smile plus acknowledgement costs nowt.
exactly, civility costs **** all.
my bmx mate said are all mtbers so miserable? dont they like it?
Mtnbikers in the south east tend to wear miserable faces. Maybe that's more to do with the south east than mountain biking.
i dunno. i'm always smiling as we have water from taps and electricity.
wierd
you should come to malvern, I always get smiles and hellos, even off walkers !
i will deffo come to the malverns!
for a pootle ??? I dont do whippet 🙂
i do chilled/upchill and pootle!
Ha, roadies are the worse though... I think I'm either smiling, chatting, or frowning with concentration when i'm riding. Oh, that or grimacing from the pain of riding up hill...
Enjoyed today.
TBH I was s***ing myself prior to joining you as I was expecting to be jumping off ten story buildings, but it was bob on and just what I needed.
Lyons....never lived in Hemel. Used to live in Bedford and now live in Milton Keynes.
I've had a few jobs so maybe worked together?
oldgit missed you today. I bimbled round with my daughter and I think got muddier in the Sandy Lane car park than riding round the woods
I thought I saw you a few times, were you on the Turner?Mind you I could probably see you about ten miles away on that 😉
Aye....was out on the Turner which is now covered in a layer of Woburn mud so not quite so green at the mo

LOL. Roadies that have got fed up with being knocked off their bikes by cars ain't it 🙄

As long as you don't go on a Sunday when you can't move for walkers, I always get a bit of chat or banter off walkers up there when I go. You always get the odd one that looks at you as if you're an alien, but mostly they appreciate that you're out having fun, getting exercise too. If you're coming mate, don't forget to gimme a shout... I'm only about 10 miles away...
i dunno. i'm always smiling as we have water from taps and electricity.
electricity from taps?? i'm impressed 😉
oh and did i mention the ability to dry our clothes outside using THE SUN?
the big yellow disc in the sky
Still get 'hellos' on Sundays aswell 🙂
(but it does get busy so not normally up there Sundays )
