Thanks Phil and CG for a great day! Lovely to meet everyone and look forward to the next group ride!

Another "Thank You" to Phil for organising and Jason for leading. Great days riding, and sorry about the puncture break near the end...
Boris
Can only echo comments above - big thanks to Phil & CG for organising & leading us round. Lovely stuff - sorry couldn't hang around for the pub afterwards. 'til next time - have a good one.
Thanks to Phil for organising, PaulD for leading and the rest of the "fast" group. Really enjoyed it, especially as our little group fancied/expected a poodle in the medium group after a 15 mile ride that we began at 8am followed by a full english breakfast! The trails were running great too and nice to ride some new bits too. Thanks everyone!
Good to meet everyone! Ian ( tall bloke, black rockhopper!)
another one who didn't make it here... bit of a late night left me needing extra sleep this morning. I did however get out for a glorious 30mile ride in the sunshine this afternoon 🙂
Kev
Excellent ride today Paul. A bit like a Gorrick race. Was proud to be chosen as a sweeper.
Phil are you available for bar mitzvahs?
Paul - thanks again for leading a great ride today!
A big thank you to phil for organising and also to the many riders who turned up. 8)
Trails were running well and there was even some sunshine!
For those in the Slow group, that was just a small selection of trails that Swinley has to offer.
thisisnotaspoon - do hope you're not suffering too much, definitely worth getting the injury checked out.
Thanks to Phil and all involved. Had a great time and hope to do it again. First time riding The Labrynth and Babymaker(?) - top fun! Chris (rigid 29 singlespeed)
Yeah, top days playing in the woods, thanks to phil for being prepared to shout loud enough to bring order to chaos, thisisnotaspoon for shouting encouragement like 'come on, you are holding up a one armed singlespeeder' 😀 Seriously though, get someone to have a look at your arm and excellent effort for making it to the end.
Everyone else for a cracking day. Good work medium group 2!
Yes, just wanted to say thanks on behalf myself and my two non-forum dwelling cohorts to everyone that made today's ride awesome, particularly Phil for organising and the single-speed wielding, wrist injuring Leader of Medium Group 2(?!). Sorry, bad with names but very grateful! Looking forward to the next one.
Had a great spin today in Swinley! Thanks a million to Jason, who lead a great cycle through the forest. Really enjoyed it.
Cheer for today Phil really enjoyed it, I've email you my clips for your blockbuster movie.. 8)
Big thanks to Phil, CG & aleigh for sorting it for the slow group. Had great fun today, appreciate you showing us around some of your rather plush backyard 🙂
Great ride Phil, thanks for organising, also a big thanks to PaulD for leading.... my god the guy can shift!! looking forward to the next ride
Ben - black Yeti
glad everyone had fun, any photos?
Cheers Phil, Elaine, and any/every one else for making it a fun ride and doing the organising.
And apologies to mattstreet for scaring the crap out of him as I very nearly smashed myself to bits at speed, crashing into a tree, about 4 feet in front of him... Brown trouser moment I can tell you!
Phil, if you and your posse wanna come over my way any time, let me know, I'll organise a route round some quality trails!
😀 Well held mboy!
Thanks Phil and PaulD for "trying to stay at the front" and killing everyone. Much fun.

Cheer for today Phil really enjoyed it, I've email you my clips for your blockbuster movie..
i've not received anything in my inbox... what site did you upload the footage to? 🙂
thanks for the comments everyone, we'll do another one as summer cools down and the trails are still dry 😈
Thanks! Had a great time and good to meet a few stw-ers in the flesh (me=tall bloke wearing a gold helmet). The lack of sexy time was a disappointment though (or was that the bit I missed?)
😉
if you were dragged into the undergrowth by yeti then i'm afraid you weren't selected for sexy time 😆
CG - we must do that route again! some stuff i hadnt done before and everyone was buzzing about the last bit you did after the seagull!
Loved the ride thanks to all, kev, (vc10 top in slow group)
Thanks Phil and CG, very enjoyable slow group ride
Peter (Cotic Soul frame no.5)
Thanks Phil and the others for organising a superb day, and big thanks to lungman too for leading us around so professionally. Apologies to the others in my group if I got in the way a bit!
Dickyboy (if I've remembered that right) - let me know if ever you're up for a Chilterns ride.
Phil - looked at my video footage last night - sorry it's crap. Batteries died just before the good bits and in any case I had it pointed at the ground! Fail!
Lack of photos = very disappointing. Everyone obviously hated it and had a rubbish time.
we've all been sent warnings by the mods not to post photos that will incite a sexual response dez 😉
Thanks Phil, had an awesome day. Hope some of the footage will be of use.
Dan (White Rockhopper, Red Bars)
So you're saying my photos from last time weren't sexy? You bitch!
😯
😥
if you're going to hit me... can we agree some american style rules.... not the face, not my beautiful face 😆
As if I would strike a man of your stature. 🙂
Just get some photos up, so I can be jealous.
The man from A&E, he say NO
🙁
Nothing broken, just sprained so in a brace for a few days untill the pain subsides, appologies to everyone in the medium group who were expecting a quicker pace, although by the sounds of it you weren't and were secretly pleased with my reduced rad-ness through the fast bits :-p
Spooooooony, i'd look at it as good news its not broken 😀
not sure if there were many taking photos to be honest dez... it was mainly helmet cams, seeing as i want to spend a little bit of time working on the main swinley video... i might throw together a 30-40second teaser over the next couple of days 🙂
ohh, and blown up forks are terminaly FUBAR, they feel fine if a little soft in the car park test, but as soon as the hit a bump they absorb it like a pogo stick wth no damping and make an ominously loud clunk noise.
Missus say's I'm alrerady unbearable after not driving the car or riding the bikes, it's only been 12 hours!
ohh forgot to write, can the kindly fellows who contributed to the collection of videos from yesterday email me their real name so i can credit you at the end of the video 8)
I want pictures dammit!
So how many turned up on the day? Glad I didn't come - went out on first two rides post broken ankle at the weekend and I am sooooo slow (and have to dismount for any obstacles over the 8" mark)...
MrSpoon - what a relief for you that it isn't broken but make sure you do as the Doc told you. Heal soon. 🙂
phil - happy to show you the final bit of fun descent, give me a shout when you want to hook up!
65-70 in total i'd guess at its busiest point, few people had to duck out at various points due to time constraints and lack of sexual stamina in others 😈

You must have some good security on your g-mail account! Have you turned all the parental settings to OFF?
thisisnotaspoon - The medium group pace was perfect 🙂 Hope the wrist and forks mend soon. I've got some footage of you laying on the floor in agony somewhere. I'll try and get it uploaded soon...
