tip. dont camp near big groups that are pitched in a circle ( noisy buggers ussually)

camping is mostly quiet but you get the odd ones who don’t know how to be quiet when they get back from the pub

dogs chew to ease anxiety and to relax, so make sure there are plenty of toys for your dog to chew. you need to teach the dog “off” and reward it with treats for not chewing you . if the dog bites you , you should tell it off but never hit it. if it keeps biting you should nip the dog with your hand to simulate a bite to let it know who is boss.

we recently took on a 6 month old rescue dog that is very nervy and tried to bite and chew whenever it was anxious, but with a few one on one obedience classes with a local dog trainer he has improved amazingly.money well spent

ssssssssshhhhhhhhhhhh you’ll scare them away

hope whoever was involved is ok.

didnt think anyone rode in the old quarry anymore since it was designated a nature reserve. i sometimes ride on the bridleways round there and some of the other tracks

“Nice part of the world! “

as long as you dont mind not having any really nice trails to ride on your door step :-(

where do you hail from Jamie ?

why was the air ambulance there ?

sounds good to me

my war wound doesnt permit running and cycling on the same day, so i will do the run and 1st lap if i can hang around the pits for the rest of the day :-)

the answer, that supported ac dc might be worth a listen

no longer with me but i’m trying to keep the graffiti theme going

still with me but not ridden much at the mo

campsite/ sports field is family friendly but bring some ear plugs incase you pitch up next to some of those that arent there for an early night :-)

lidl have some in at the moment, dont know much about them , but i bet they’re cheap

thanks folks.

anyone know of any good deals about with lenses etc ?

not me i have an old war wound that prevents me from doing the run, unless you want me to just do the run then doss around the camp all day

maxx d

don’t know but its more than enough for trail riding, did the builth night enduro the week on medium as i wasnt too sure it would last on max.
and it was great.
great customer service too

i’ve had an ml8 since they 1st came out and you will not find a bike(suspension or not) that climbs as well as it.
its not bad on the downs either.

Another vote for maverick here, had an ml8 since they 1st came out and it handles everything.
it really does climb amazingly and its not too bad going down either

seen them twice before

going on thursday ,cant wait

enjoyed the night ride loads, pushed a bit too hard at times even though i knew i was riding next morning

did the 50 on the sunday as he legs were tired from enjoying the trails too much the night before

top weather too

salsaboy ?

didnt he used to ride bikes ??

:)

Tony. i think it was originally going to be a one off , but seeing as they have done two , they maybe doing more i suppose.
worth checking out the 1st one if you can get hold of it

dont know if you class it as a tractor but i liked it

“you do the math” really gets my goat

“really gets my goat” wtf does that mean

man the f up

i could go on.
but i have some tidying up in the garden to do

a big thanks to all those involved in organising a great day in the saddle.

i spotted some people cheating and taking short cuts off road which was not in the spirit of the event and wish i had got there numbers so i could report them to the marshalls.

they must have gained no end of places the cheating scum bags

:-)

linnhe loch side is about 4 miles from fort bill centre, very picturesque but if your in a tent and the midges are out be prepared. glen nevis is big, closer to town with good facilities, dont know about the other one

if you class sleeping in a van as camping , then we are there for fri to sunday night

yep doing the night thing and a route of undecided length on the sunday.
will be on a phil wood ss or a geared indy fab depending how brave i feel

say hi if i pass you, i wont have time for autographs though

just landed here too along with dirtrag from the states.
just as well as i have a **** head cold, the suns out and i’m well pissed off.

not many then ?

so doing it on a singlespeed monstercross isnt a good idea then ?

ac dc powerage or janes addiction nothing shocking

is it true you get a better picture on your normal sky channels when using a hd box ?

igm
no you should get a top 4 finish i reckon

Frank for short
