Woburn jumps would be great. although I still want to ride that rollercoaster which must be great. Jedi gave me some directions but that didn't get me there yet

There are some really nice single tracks sections around the place , not to far from the play area. maybe we could check out depending on how we all feel !! But honestly dont mind staying in the play area as it will let me build my confidence up (although, thankfully, coming along nicely I must say after the few rides recently :D )

What a great day it turned out to be.

Rain when we arrived then pretty much sunshine thereafter with the odd cloud & ultra brief flash shower.

The place is just so good with numerous lines around the place. From my own perspective I was glad to get most of my confidence back by the end of the day. Few more sessions and I will be more happy.

Thanks to Joost (hope you are feeling better mate), Alex, Neil & Tyler (the flyer) for a great session.

I am going to be a frequent visitor to Woburn :D

Sounds like a good day, Woburn is great fun

Didn't think I would get a ride in this weekend as I haven't got any wheels at the mo, but managed to borrow a set off Tom and Beth and had a few hours over at Chicksands this afternoon with them.

Haven't been over there for a while, was running nice and fast, the rain showers damped it nicely so wasn't too dry/loose.

Awsome - what happened to Joost?

Went out for a spin with Tom round epping at the the nice early start time of 11. Had another massive stack in a drainage ditch - super slow and funny so no injuries apart from my balls being squashed ;)

Good times

Went to Danbury on Sunday morning, raining but not too wet there. The rain made no difference to the runs whatsoever, if anything they were faster and less sketchy. The only downer was my last minute decision to take the Enduro. Didn't have enough air in the shock and didn't have a shock pump so was blowing through the travel and had to stay off the jumps.

Hi Guys
Joost had a pretty bad fall on the hip jump at Woburn, caught himself in the stomach with his stem and i think the bike hit him on the way down the slope as well. He left a little while before us and he seemed ok, just a sore stomach. Apart from that we had a really good session and as Paul said the conditions were perfect. My son showed me up a bit on the jumps with the amount of height he was getting Hence the nickname "Tyler The Flyer".
Great site layout by the way, love the pics/videos section
