Off to decathlon to get some leggings and a brolly then.

If we have to re schedule I can pretty much do any day, although it starts to get a bit expensive (being self employed) taking days off. It'd be a shame to waste the day though, so I'm up for going somewhere else.

Its private land and not open to the public. Youll need to ask Tony / Jedi for more info/permission.

Had a brilliant day despite the pouring rain.
learned a lot about how i tackle things out on the trail and how to make myself faster and more stable.
i'd definitely recommend taking the time to go on one of tony's courses.
he is a very relaxed guy and this puts you at ease when you are trying things for the first time.
in the pictures i am in red.
i can barely walk this morning after my off at the end of the day, i should have quit while i was ahead!

Very glad you did sort it out for us jon.

Great day and really glad I made the effort. A telly relaxed group, and Tony explains the stuff you need to know in a really simple to understand way, and it's quite a revelation when you actually put it into practice. I reckon everyone could benefit from a day at uk bikeskills. Stuff I wouldn't go near before, ain't gonna trouble me(too much) now. I also discovered that (old) men CAN jump! Thanks Tony you're a star:-)
