Hello Alex, good to see your able to type after all the morphine and gas coz yesterday you couldnt remember your phone number lol glad your feeling better mate and hope to catch up with you some time. theres always rides on here all over the place especially XC if you do any of that plus always people willing to help out with stuff..

when i got home with your bike im sure my Mrs thought i bought it on the sly and was making up a story about how i came to have it, however she was a bit miffed as to why i had one shoe tied to the bars lol

cheers
Harry

Welsome + heal up fast buddy. Where abouts @ Danbury did you do it. That place has the most breaks and big stacks out of all the local venues for some reason.

I would not trust your bike with Festa. He'll be taking pictures of it leaning against trees, ;-)

Jocking aside, heal up soon fella all will be ok.... All mtb'ers unite when a fellow rider goes down... Best keep the air ambulance on speed dial now
