That is an excellent idea NIck

Good stuff. I watched alot Of youtube video just have to put more into practice.

Richard Kelly good he's on IMBIKEMAG youtube and website bike technique skills.

Above all videos nothing like someone showing were your going wrong.

Wonder if Nick or someone can show me how to bunny hop love to do that over branches dog walkers leave being.

Also how to Manual at some point.

Edit: stupid phone

^^^ when we were at UKBS tony said he'd rarely ever had to teach anyone to bunny hop as most people already know how but just dont realise it but i was sat there with a stunned look on my face as i used to bunny hop park benches as a kid (had a photo in BMX Action once for it LOL) but i cant bunny hop my mountain bike for shit !! even getting up kerbs seems like hard work ??

now you can manual you should have it down jon

Thats brilliant...give us a heads up .will be up for beginners ride..

I,d be up for it !

I'm also looking to get out more on the hardtail.

Firstly, the 20th isn't set in stone yet, I need people to throw me preferable dates, if they have them. Also, I can do Saturday's, but thought Sundays better as less people will be working.

Plus, to add a short note, if there are some people that want to learn more advanced stuff, and some tricks, etc, maybe we can get an evening thing going??? But, one thing at a time,

As for these beginner rides, I really want to get down to the basics of just riding, throw in a few trail skills, but really first of all, just get people enjoying a social, non pressurised ride. When everyone is a bit comfortable, we'll bring them onto the usual rides, but I want this to be that first step.

I would be well up for this rebuilding fitness and confidence

I'll help out if i can, maybe a bike set up and maintenance too?

Yeah defo up for this need to pick up some tips and work on fitness.

This sounds good as I posted yesterday, as a new member, that I would like to join in some rides, I think its a good way of getting new people like me out, as I have no idea how quick people go on these regular rides. I would be up for weekend ride soon. Can you post when the ride is on. Many thanks....

Weekends are generally good ( whatever fits with your schedule Nick)..preferably dry but hey what the heck bring it on

Sunday would be best but tuesday, wednesday and saturday is doable as long as i am back by half 2/3, i work in the evenings then

Diffinately interested, fitness/stamina is the main issue at the moment but deffinately want to develope more advanced skills. Not tobad on the maintenance side but disc brakes are fairly new to me and slightly problematic so problem solving/post ride maintenance would be good.
