Whilst out walking i came across a thingy from a pair of forks, i know exactly what it is, but so i don't send it off to just anyone, i'd like you all to check your forks for anything missing............ and than you have to tell me where you fettled or what trails you did.....

The Tox are getting nice and green in the wooded areas, all the wortlebeery plants are coming on, sheep seem to be dying all over the damn place and

i've found a nice new trail to play on when i'm able.

Some idol scrotes camped i holford combe and couldn't be arsed to carry there bagged up rubbish back with them, at least i had one good arm..check out the ivy strapping!

And i just twisted out my first 'TICK' so it begins!

Enjoy yer riding you 'stids.

ahhh this is entrapment I reckon, your trying to flush ppl who are riding there illegally during the "sharki's broke" ban

😛

Where's the second piccy taken Sharki? Don't recognise it. Looks almost man-made the way it cuts across the slope.

The ban isn't easy to police it's true, but this item may have been lost before the ban went in, so coming forward to claim it will not mean you'll be liable to punishment.

Nick.the second in this thread???? in bincombe, it's part of 'the coledridge way'

... Nope. Not mine. Everythings there present and correct.

Your trail is drying out nicely by the way 😆

Now I just feel silly.

Just got back from a ride on the Q's, the trails are just about perfect and there was hardly anyone up there. I didn't lose any fork parts or find any Voodoo badges, but I probably wouldn't have noticed then anyway as I was having too much fun 😀

My trail???? i co built it with others my claim is only about 60%.

It's meant to be called 'return of the stump' 😉

It's been fine all winter, and the roots just make it more fun.

It always seems to be referred to as 'Sharki's trail' Apologies to your co-builders!

I really wouldn't worry too much about the Quantocks tick's I've been walking and riding up there several times a week for the past 25 years and only been bitten once :-).

Surely the only thing that you could lose off a fork and not notice would be a Rock Shox rebound adjuster?
