wheee heee
it's on then.
Righto, i'll get the lads fired up for this
Ton, I expect you to turn up in all the 'stormtrooper DH gear ' and a 8" 45lbs bike. 😉
Am I right in thinking AE has another DH run now as well as the one with the big drop off?
perfect.............. 8)
Personally I'm hoping Ton turns up on his electric bike 😀
Ok, so now I'm back from Wookie hunting I can't wait to get stuck into another trip! Only got Tally's answerphone, so can't throw questions at him that way - have emailed him as follows:
Hi Tally,Looking forward loads to this... just a few queries.
Is pricing the same as Inners?
Are available seats the same as Inners? Think 16 seater will be on, but we may be a couple of bodies short.
Regarding payments; is it possible for us to pay through your website as if booking a normal weekend date or would I have to sort it out?
What time will it kick off?
If it pisses it down does it turn to goop?
Are electric bikes acceptable? [b]Did I really leave this in?!?[/b]*
Cheers,
Rob.
If anyone's got anything else to add, lets hear it.
Will email to dist list as previous - we need to confirm numbers.
Anyone else who wants to join the party, get in touch.
*Awaits shoeing from Ton 
Just put the e email around our lot this morning.
looks like about 8 ish at the moment.
Looking fwd to this, not been to Ae for a couple of years.
Heard back from Tally:
We normally just do the 8 seater for private days. It's £250 for the day and it's up to you to fill it!
I can look into a 16 seater and see if we could do that for you.
As for payment it's normally done by the person booking (ie £250 in one transaction) and can be done direct to us by bank transfer.
Going by what he told me previously the 16 seater would cost £512. At best we seem to have 13 (maybe 14) riders at the mo, which would make an individual cost somewhere between £36 & £40.
We may be able to pick up another couple of stragglers to bring the price down, but failing that we're either looking at £40 each or the 8 seater and some people missing out - which clearly we don't want as we all want to have some fun
So... [b]confirmation on definites needed ASAP please.[/b]
And then you also have to be prepared to pay for a part seat that might have no-one in it. Think of it as a timeshare??
Then we come to the issue of payments 😕
Well, I guess it won't hurt if we did 2 payments to Tally? I'm thinking one from Vortexracing's crew and then eveyone else through me?
Not ideal, but I'm not about to flee the country for a couple of hundred quid.
Don't know the time it'll start yet - did ask, but that's the one Q Tally didn't answer. I'd imagine 9:30 for 10:00 or there abouts, but he did tell me
It it rains at Inners it is ok, some tracks muddier than others but not slow gloop!!
which sounds promising for there being more than one track.
Why can't life be simple? 🙂
Emailed you earlier Rob Hilton - I'm in...
It it rains at Inners it is ok, some tracks muddier than others but not slow gloop!!
I thought it was at Ae now? Inners suits me better but ?
^ Balls, didn't spot that! Yep, it [b]IS[/b] Ae - Inners would have suited me best.
Tally got muddled up I guess. So still in the dark re: numbers of tracks.
@ton, you can self uplift at hamsterley as its a public road to the top...
^ Good to know.
According to the [url= http://descend-bikepark.co.uk/default.aspx ]local uplift service[/url] they only need a minimum of 4 riders for their private days - got to be a breeze to organise, that one!
seanodav........thanks for the heads up mate.
a good do it is..
We should have 12 definites and waiting for the word on 1 more; will re-advertise across forumns & FB to see if anyone else wants to come play.

Ton and Fragile, not two words I would have used in the same sentence 😀
Forecast looks fine. Not warm, but clear and dry. See you lads down there.
Don't forget the bog roll 😉
If I get the chance I will pop over and say hi 🙂

Dam, forgot what day of the week it is ❗
Was at hospital till 10pm last night, mum is a bit poorly. Car was in for service and hospital visiting took up rest of day.
Hope you enjoyed your day Ton and if you get up this way again give me a shout.
