    some great stuff here…loadsa great experience based ideas etc but whats great is without this place i think mog could have gone into that meeting without a plan and got tipped straight away…i cant believe how naive they were not to have anyone from hr theyre?

    maybe time to get in touch informally or otherwise with the old employer? my 2p worth…anyhow,well done and good luck!

    (this is loads more entertaining than some over engineered/pricey shed build) :lol:

    i use a xar and i love it,2 days into its new use had an otb moment which resulted in a non fatal dent in the top…still using it,saw the carbon exo skeleton in a shop once that theyve got which explains the lightness..very comfy and plenty vented for foreign sorjourns..

    try a poc on..i wanted to love it but it made my swede look enormous! so it went back on the shelf :roll:

    Just ride for fun…don’t make it too hard..if that means just having a short ride do it…it can take ages to get your fitness back.i rode a lot for most of last year and my fitness was really coming on,then I broke my ankle..getting back soon though..I find planning things helps

    i did ben vorlich this summer sanny….its was my first munro on a bike and very good…i reckon you could do it in about 4 hours…we parked up north of callendar so it was a big day for us,the actual munro was pretty straight forward,up and down following the tourist path..very steep for the last 200 meters but still doable coming down albeit slowly..we passed 2 nutters on cross bikes going up..wtf? its definitely all-mountain on the way down…great descent

    Take everything you would need for sitting on a hillside for about 12 hours….fold uppy seats are really good/drinks/grub etc…it’s the best wait for about 1/2 an hour of action I’ve ever done…walking or riding is the only way to get to a good spot…try and pick a place where you can see the riders coming from a distance(as they’re tramping on,even up a hill)

    I could only relate With the riders at the very back and they still looked relatively fresh….enjoy! :-)
