I’ve been on here about 6 years and have often seen ” woods behind nationwide ” which I’m guessing is a long standing joke like Joe Cocker and Louise.

Can anyone tell me what the woods behind nationwide was all about ?

Thanks

That’s where all the frame stickers are kept.

Joe cocker and louise are only whippersnappers.

I went there once to find out. It was reasonably good but not worth a specific trip.

I wasn’t on the original thread but from what I can tell some neophyte came on raving about how awesome and rad it was, when in fact it’s a pretty tiny local park with a very short but decent trail in it….?

I heard the blue is better than the red…

There is a bit of northshore.

Which thread did Louise come from?

Hmm, the nationwide trail is bigger than I thought it’d be. I’m not making a trip from Leeds though…

Running joke, perhaps not specific to STW, seems to be rad gnar pictures from any trail down south may be tagged as Swindon.

I’ve been here on and off since 2003 and I don’t know what it means.

I still miss “Conti Vert Pro”.

I’ve only been here since 2009 so all I know is bombers and baby robin’s.

If I remember rightly, wasn’t there a picture of Robbie Williams in the tabloids riding a mountain bike on the trails in questions.

And so a STW meme was born…

Off to do some research.

There’s trails in them there woods… 🙂

I’ve not been paying attention to the in jokes, been too upset about my Mint Sauce keyring.

Will all these memes still exist after Xmas when we’re on the new forum software?

Just realised I’ve been on here over 15 years 😕

That’s the issue trying to come up with new jokes and memes is holding everything back.

There’s some video footage of Brendog riding the trail before it was destroyed. I’m sorry if you never got to ride it 🙁

There’s a sick edit out there somewhere of Brendog riding the woods behind the Nationwide in Swindon. Looks pretty good, definitely worth a visit.

I have some ideas. I’ll bring them up at the next Mods get-together at the Specialized HQ.

Fantastic it’s great that Specialzed how these free events and all they want in return is a 10 out of 10 review on their products.

I thought Trek/Fox were hosting the next one?

The new forum/hat eating thing was 10 years ago, wow time flies when you’re having fun!

That’s what we tell everyone so people don’t get suspicious.

Sorry, would have posted earlier, but I’ve been on holiday.

Oh, and I had some IT problems, too.

It was’nt a spoon….apparently.
