Hi everyone

Just got me self a mountain bike too get fit I've started going over danbury. I live in Chelmsford. I ride dirt bikes and thought there's no better way too keep fit for that than doing a bit of dh. I'm riding a carrar banshee not too sure how good this bike is for dh and few trail rides?

Welcome along, there's quiet a few guys that live chelmsford way. The carrar is not a bad starter bike at all (know they got a few awards for it), more xc/trail than dh though

Hiya.

I'm in Chelmsford too and head over to Danbury whenever I can, usually in the late afternoon most Thursdays.

I'm on a white Cannondale Trigger 29 if you see me over there - say hello :)

What's weird about hanging about in the woods saying hi to people you've never met before? I do it all the time - :lol:
