Yeah, we spoke to him a few weeks back and he had just recovered e from a broken collar bone so reckon thats the same break.
its was on the second hump on 4x track, i think 3 collided but was just out of view to be too sure.

thats gonna be a once a month visit for me i reckon or at least every 6 weeks,

danbury next weekend?

Hi kev - good to meet you and your mates - sorry, didn't see you again before we left (just before 1pm).

That was the best near-miss I've ever seen on the drop, another nano-second and your mate would have been wiped out!

I'll be at Danbury next Sunday unless it's raining all week.

That was an example of what i dont want to do on any drop off, which is why ive not got the confidence to do it just yet, i dont think it looks too bad now so will get there soon enough.

pretty sure ill be at danbury on sunday so will catch up with u then,

Had to laugh when I got there and saw a gate and fence all the way round Chicksands. That's after telling you at Christmas that it's open forest and no way to close it! Show's how long it's been since I've been there, used to be able to stroll in from any direction. Pretty sure that low gate could be overcome by a determined rider ;

Pretty pleased with the ride today, didn't break anything, new cranks felt good and nothing fell off!

See you next Sunday.

I remember it being a tie and then you cutting me up several times on the final run. Plus I hit the brakes twice on that run, Brad is not someone you want to be next to in the air :lol:

Not any more Jon. It's a mud stealth colour, although most of that is now in my boot.
