Hey All,

Me and Benji are heading down to Chicky on Sunday with a couple of other guys to have play about on the 4x and dual slalom tracks.

Anyone else going to be down there or want to join in the fun!?

Was a mental day!

Started off with a bit of a session on the 4x track before railing the berms on the dual and sending some DH!

Had a right laugh and had a 10man train hitting the 29ft triple on the 4x track!!

After having a argument with Ben who said we were hitting nearly 30mph I decided to hook up my Cateye Velo+ Wireless to see what speeds we could hit and only managed 29.3mph on the dual and 28.8 on the 4x. Due to braking ruts and really dust berms it wasn't that easy to hit big speeds. Still think there is at least 33mph to be had down those track!

Here are a few pics from the day thanks to Pushing the Boundaries Photography for the snaps! http://www.facebook.com/pages/Pushing-the-boundaries-photography/166289890138871

Benji railing the berm and was on fire all day!!!!!!

Awesome Pics dude, hopefully catch you there next time.

I found the berms on the 4x really sketchy.

Steve, the berms were a bit dusty but weren't too bad! The Dual Slalom berms were worse because of all the braking bumps...i mean seriously who brakes on that dual track?

The dual could definitely do with some work, to many dh rigs hucking down it.
