    yes a few of us from our group Aberdare MTB were kindly given some of these pads by Uberbike to try and we have been using them over Winter with no ill effects. They are sold as a race pad so maybe not designed to be as long lasting as their Sintered pads for example. Why not try some and see for yourself?

    no you will be fine to ride, diet is your friend, yes absolutely avoid fatty foods as much as possible as this triggers the pain.

    Trust me I know how painful it is, keep on hassling your GP everytime you have a pain attack and you’ll get surgery quicker. The issue is once you have it removed you may well suffer eating fatty food and you’ll ge to know public toilets and their whereabouts very well

    Yes I’ve tried them and have survived many runs at BikePark Wales, if they are good enough for the Steve Peat Syndicate they are good enough for me surely

    Capacity was always going to be an issue as you can imagine and by not over using the trails with unlimited numbers would cause the trails to degrade a lot faster and not allow Billy and the trail maintenance crew keep up with their work. As a local it is frustrating that we can’t use the uplift as often as we’d like but I guess it’s easier for us to chance grabbing the odd uplift when we can.

    If you ask the park ranger nicely he may lock the bike away in one of their security sheds :wink:

    nice site, showers and electrical hooks up near tent pitches too

    Cheers Yunki for the advise yes we have a contact who is out there constructing houses and we will send him the money directly, he is a known entity from the Padyak guys so we know he’s genuine.

    This is going to be repeated bigger and better in the New Year to raise more funds hopefully

    yep split pin for me the Formula bolts are made of cheese fact and are crazy priced.

    I’ve had a spilt pin in the back brake on my Zesty for past 6 months with no trouble and makes changing pads a doddle

    Sure there is some slippy slidy on some of the reds as they are more like natural trails but that’s part of the fun, I don’t know the policy on closing the trails but we laid down so much gravel on some trails they’ll never move.

    I doubt they’ll shut any trails as you’d be just help make them more technical which is what people want – right??

    don’t bother going I’ll have your uplift passes :wink:

    C’mon where ever you go this weekend is going to be messy. Surely the best place to be is on the uplift at a bikepark?? It’s great fun there loads of combinations to do, even the blues and reds which are gravel based are holding their own and awesome at speed.

    Look forward to it, get wet and mucky and enjoy a cuppa and a warm by the fire in the cafe.

    Enjoy your weekend and if you do decide not to go email me and I know plenty of locals who’ll have your passes
