 Post subject: Finally escaped London, time to dust off the old bikes!

Well i say escaped I've moved to Thornton Heath!

Anyway about 4 years ago prior to the move to London i was out riding all the time, mostly freeriding with a bit of road riding thrown in.

I've had tones of bikes most of which end up getting getting broken! the rest i was forced to sell upon moving. I did however manage to save my Giant Faith from the selling spree! Once in London brought a Giant Defi as the faith was totally usable for anything other than going down hills plus if anyone knew i had it, it would have probably got nicked. turns out there also great for collecting dust!.

Since moving to T.H. I've added a new addition to my Giant family the Giant Talon, which is quite a good bike other than the braking, but it is basically brand new so might just be a bedding problem.

I really want to get back into singletrack + freeriding on a more regular basis, the riding in my area is that bad but it is very limited.

I did recently venture to Cwmcarn downhill track + Afan forest in wales which was great, so if there are any trips being organised to go i would love to tag along! Really want to check out Coed-y-Brenin too!

I've read a few posts on here and most of the advice has been to check the "ride calendar" so ill keep an eye on that, but I thought ill just give you guys a heads up that you have a new member.

I'm 30,drive + cycle most weekends! [ sounds like a dating add ]

Anyway my names Chay.

Thanks.
