No worries Hightower, see you there.

Anyone else riding a hardtail on the day or should I bring the full sus?

Full suss also!

While hardtail is poss (as any dirt jumper proves) unless you are already very good suggest full sus Tom - do a video search on UK Bike Skills, Herts Shore or Jedi and have a look at some of the stuff there.... The bike will help keep you out of trouble

Bringing my Spesh Demo and still expecting to get into trouble!

If you are bringing your hardtail it should be a jump able bike

this days coaching is not aimed at cross country riding

i'm bringing my demo as i want to go for the bigger stuff if its not icy

Was that "icy" or "dicey"?

Icy! dicey is standard

I'm on the hard tail, I intend to have a right laugh pushing it the only suspension you'll need is in your legs.

Sent using the force...

Was there yesterday and the trails were cleared of snow.

Bring plenty of clothes as it can be exposed in some sections, the carpark is right next to where you'll be coached so swapping bikes/helmets or extra layers is no problem.

Ill be there with the camera on wednesday, so see yall there :high5:

Cheers guys, think you've convinced me full sus is the way. Hardtail is jumpable and I'm fine on it over Danbury, but as you say I might be thankful for extra travel!

There is nothing too bumpy down there to worry about but if you have the travel why not use it?
