Arrived at 9:45. Fella was sat in the front of the PAB 4x4 (his Cube HT was slung in the back) on Oxygen with a very sore looking shoulder. Possibly dislocated. Apparently lost it over one of the jumps/rollers on the Blue trail (near the start not on the last descent). Not been riding long apparently.

Anyway hope he's okay. Two ambulances turned up so reckon he was about to be carted off to Gloucester. Poor so and so.

Downhill runs were good still very fast.Very muddy in places where the Enduro course ran.How long have they been using 2 uplifts on a weekend just wondered?
Nice half eaten sheep along the track towards the downhill crossings very "Lord Of The Flies" ๐Ÿ˜†
