Sounds eventful. Well done for getting a few friends together and actually going out in it. Imagine concentration levels are at an all time high trying to not die at every turn. Great picture though!

Thanks yea.
The guy in my photo has his birthday on Monday, this was his ‘birthday ride’ that he’d organised. He’s a very very capable enduro rider - ex-motocrosser and fast road rider. He was happy as anything that we went out, as all the others in Swindon cried off.
The four others were part of the group I met with at ABR and Sweet Lamb; they were over to do a rally event thing so yesterday was a play day before they try to follow the roadbook today.
You’re right that concentration levels are high. I was totally pooped by the time I got home, and this morning muscles ache that haven’t ached all year!

I was flagging after a few hours so the last hour home was mega slow.
The other guys had a few falls. We met with 4 other guys I know and they had varying degrees of success on SPTA. One had a front wheel disappear through the ice, both KTM’s lost the end of the rear brake levers, and I think a few more exciting things happened too.
I had my usual constant near-falling (aka normal riding). The trials bike has really helped staying stood up when a bike goes sketchy.
