It was ๐Ÿ™‚ Los retamares descent. Its a very sandy bit which you try follow to the left but the bike just keeps going straight and sinking!

Yeah we did that bit twice, watching darran surf down it and then trying to follow him was an experience in itself! Looking at your pics, I want to go back. Did you do Contador Beef? That's a monster ride.

Sorry RD, have your thread back!

Can I have two?

Chasms trail, Isle of Man and the last descent back in to Port Erin off the back of Mull Hill. Been riding these for 5 years and never seen them running so fast and dusty. Two wheel drifts and kicking up clouds of dust in our wake, mega little local loop ๐Ÿ˜€ Shame it's pissing down today ๐Ÿ™
