I did that CTC competition on here a few weeks back – and they emailed today to say I’ve won a on-on-one skills course at Firecrest MTB, to be taken at Aston Hill.

Can’t wait! Now what to choose – jumps and drops? Downhill racing? Enduro?

sounds good Tim, enjoy 🙂

Well done mate.
If it was me I’d spend the whole day learning to jump.
Looks great when done properly, but I’m totally rubbish.

Yeah – I’ve done some jumping with Jedi, but this is at Aston Hill, with the 4x track – be nice to work on stringing a few together at pace.

have you been to AH recently?

new pump track?
Surface 2 Air?

think they are working on another, or revamping DH3, saw something on FB.

will be fantastic, heard good things about Firecrest Trg.

Did a course b there years ago with Ian Warby ? Was very good the trails there are sweet S2A is brilliant and the work done there recently has really improved it

Dito! 😀
Although I’ve only won the runner up prize of a group session I’m proper chuffed!

Looking forward to learning with my empty cup!

Bugger…that means i didnt win then.

Well done OP.

I’m on the runner-up course too, see you there taco!

I’m on the runner-up course too, see you there taco!

See you there!

Im also on the runner up day – see you all there!

Probably will go in the morning and do some riding around before it starts if anyone wants to meet up?
Going to get there for 10am

What time’s it all going on? I tried to ring Ian but I haven’t got through yet, haven’t heard anything since the initial “you won!” email. But yeah, if it’s in the afternoon I’ll definitely be there a bit earlier for a bit of riding first. Probably break myself in the first ten minutes and have to stop for the day.

1:30-4:30 according to the email I got today.

My email Is in profile if you want to meet up – not ridden at Aston before so would be good to get an idea before the afternoons riding.

Ah, I’ve not received one yet but my email does seem very tardy generally for receiving messages. I’ll drop you a line, I’ve not been there before either, it’s been on my hitlist for ages and circumstances never quite aligned.

1.30-4.30,
Would love to do a lap before hand but I’m driving down from Nottingham and I’m short for time already.

What sort of level are we all at?
