    Japanese whiskeys are pretty good for starters but myself I love Lagavulen but that is not good for a starter.

    There was a new five at the Macavalance with a snapped swing arm this year, never seen that before.

    Maybe he wants men in Lycra to fall off so he can jump out from behind a tree and administer first aid with his healing stick?

    Isn’t that what he did in Clapham Common?

    He stated he was removing obstructions from the footpath but at the end of the day we shouldn’t be building illegal trails in woods, this has been discussed numerous times and it isn’t right. Now if we were riding footpaths then that’s fair game as I think we should be allowed too but digging in woods that we have no permission is shite.

    The interview was shit as well.

    Me and a few others built stage 2 to be really fast. The lower section after the wall was the most difficult as it was loose as chuff. Crashed loads when building it, should be greatful it was dry 🙂

    Did you all enjoy stage 2?

    It was far from a downhill event. Somebody the stages had tricky sections but nothing that would be DH, in my opinion.

    I helped build stage 2 and it rocks, rode it loads and its fast and furious. will ride super fast in the dry.

    You don’t have to go via Darwen though? Can you not just go San Marino, Turton, Entwistle, up to tower via firing ranges, buckden woods, Irwell vale, coal road and then your at Cragg?

    i believe Dunc provided the info that led to the arrests. he found his commuter bike on gumtree and the bloke had left a GPS tag on a pic, found his address and passed it on.

    Great event, Injured my self in practice so only managed stage 1 today and had to retire. Thought the courses were good and the end of stage 4 was mental.

    If you have insurance and you have an accident you are more likely to claim from your own insurance and not the organisers, this makes Steve Parrs insurance cheaper.

    My cousin sent me a message last night.

    I remember riding with Neil and he was so fast, he was getting ready to have a go at the tour divide, then he had a brain tumour.

    RIP Neil.

    Why do we need insurance? Last year I raced and even though enduro was covered by BC i never thought I had PI cover just because I entered and I wouldn’t even have thought of it.

    Why do we need PI insurance now?

    I’ve just changed my tyres for winter and you really need at least 2x30ml of stans for initial sealing. It should really take anymore than 20 minutes a tyre.

    Mine arrived today and it’s pretty good, no way on this earth is it 3800 lumins but for £15 it’s a bargain.

    I have a pretty good charger I use for all my battery packs so for £15 it’s a steal,just put the battery in an inner tube to keep it waterproof.

    My rune is great, pedals fantastic and doesn’t feel like the big bike it is. It’s pretty bombproof as well, as I found out at PMBA enduro 🙂

    I own a rune but there are kind of difficult to compare. Capra is carbon Rune is alloy.
