Just send you £15 by paypal, whatever you do don't drive to Clayton Vale, I suspect a fair few of us will be buying you drinks 😀

Probably a couple of others that'll jump in if there's space

As a possible MNPR attendee, nee lurker, this looks like to much of a risk to initiate a big introduction.
I had toyed with taking my kids to a taster session but I now think this could be a good night to take them along to spectate.
One word.... Carnage.

It's a good job my back is borked. If I had a go at that my back would be the least of my worries. Think I'll come and watch though.

Hey gaze, if there's any spaces left I'm definitely up for this. I'm already registered so you'd just need to give my name and address (I'm not very good, don't worry). Email me at mintimperial at gmail dot com and we can sort payment and details and whatnot. Cheers! 🙂

Binners, if it helps I'll pay for us both using the wonderful medium of the interwebs and we can straighten up another time rather than bringing hard earned pound notes to a mud fest..

Just thinking about this.... Are we not going to get struck down by the god of karma for not getting coated in shit on some desolate northern moorland, getting lost, 3 punctured and a smashed rear mech, having someone's lights die, and eventually staggering to the pub like a bunch of bewildered refugees?

It just doesn't seem right?

Has Beate been in touch yet?

I am not hardcore. I have attended Monday Night Pub Rides and mainly obeyed the rules. Apart from that time someone had to buy me a beer 😳

Gaz, the bloke from work has confirmed. I'll get £30 to you on Monday.

Cheers Daz, that's doable. Riding would be a push to get there by 8pm but the mighty Doblo can do it. We have passenger seats if you / anyone would like a lift from Tod.

Well I'll be in Manc anyway at work so I'll go straight from there, but a lift back would be good if there's space. It also means I won't have to worry about driving/riding home after I break something 🙂

Well, if it's any consolation to anyone who's fearful of dying - I'm going and the last time I rode a BMX was in 1988 (I was eight)

I did manage a ramp with 4 bricks 🙂

Yeah, I'm probably going to die aren't I?

Yeah, now this one is out too, for me!

I just fell a couple of meters onto my thumb, the palm muscle is buggered.

At least this one is free.

Just shown The Wife the video in the OP.

On reflection probably not the wisest of ideas.

Show her this. No jumping involved here and it looks a little more realistic for us lot.... (although still faster than we'll be doing it)

A lift from Tod might be good if that's ok Clover. I'm in Hebden.

It sounds like Rorschach might actually be competent at this kind of thing, which is just not on really.
