Giddy rob - it allows me and my missus to ride without getting wound up - me with her for being too slow and her with me for always being ahead.
Its also a huge hoot to ride.
heard they are best way to get a divorce 😉
I just leave my wife behind 🙂 I'm like a dog. I run away then come back then run away then come back.
U must have a fab turning circle!

Giddy rob - not really the place to debate this - but some couples get on with riding them and some don't. As for turning circle we can get round virtually everything at glentrees we have tried - sometimes with interesting lines right enough. Must try the pie run on it

Forgot I had this one...did he survive?

Jesus Danny, you may as well have just jumped off the roof and landed on your chest.....
How long did it take you to recover ?
Picking myself up after failing to make a tight turn at the bottom of a descent - fortunately also failed to hit the posts.

Broken collarbone here after hitting a stump and flying through the air - stump is between the trees behind and that's where I landed.

Yeah, it wasn't my best! I'd been hammering everything out there and confidence was through the roof - I didn't even look at it properly just went for it..........lesson learnt!
That was on day 3 of an 8 day trip, spent the rest of my time there drinking and snmoking all day long in the chalet watching wimbledon:(
It was about 6 weeks for bones to heal, but drive an automatic and got one of those little ball things like truck drivers have on the steering wheel so thatr I could get back to work - not really convinced it was very legal!
Heading back there beginning of June :))))
Pook - you were in Deeside a couple of weeks ago...ya jammy.....
Great thread. I suggest the keen cameramen/women among you carry [url= http://www.uncrate.com/men/gear/misc-gadgets/fail-stickers/ ]these items[/url] on rides in future to avoid time-consuming photoshop work later.
