Let's offroad / mountain bike / mtb / ride dirt

I never realized 10 ft was a small drop off!

Haha! Anything over about a foot is big to me, but there's that massive drop that we looked at near the end of the last ride (called deliverance) so it's all relative!

HTFU Mr Brick.

deliverance isn't a drop-off it's just a steep roll (and a long one at that)
been a long time i have been down it though as having successfully negotiated it a dozen or so times i realised that somebody else always fell off so i figured i was due a fall too so didn't bother doing it again
i don't do jumps/drops any more as it usually results in time off the bike for such a short time in the 'air' :-) i did manage to do the log drop at chicksands on my ss hardtail though but the only reason for doing that was to prove a point to a friend wearing body armour/full face lid riding a 7inch travel DH bike that it wasn't difficult.

8:84?

With that sentiment hb. 8:84 = 9:24 even better.
But I can't get out of the house before 9 when I'm supposed to be at work by then.
Not that I think i'm even likely for this week.

If her indoors sticks to cycling to work this weekend, I might continue on after dropping her off, to try a few hours at epping.

+imMe you need to come and ride. No excuses, if you're not at the train station by the time I get there I'll refuse to talk to you ever again (Not that I've actually seen you in the last 9 months).

Glad that the missus is riding to work though, that kicks ass.

Fair point, I was just using it for to compare sizes. It'll be a while before I do it in any case as I have an aversion to pain.

Don't worry momentum, I'll take your share!

A pavement is a big drop for me, cos i'm only short.

Do you mean dropping off the kerb or just riding along a flat pavement?

Shorty.

MrSmith is that a photo of Bubba?

yes, object, kerb, you anal cunt.

no just some radom pic from flickr. you know bubba never managed the plop despite body armour and a 7inch travel norco.
i think the plop has been removed now.

You fucking know it.

Have we got an official plan yet?

Meet at station and get train to Dorking - Then someone has a map and some ideas for routes.

I think lets all just meet for the 8:54 train, otherwise we'll all get split up, and an extra 30 mins in bed is always good.

8:54 at waterloo right?
Coool.

Aye - think thats what someone put up a few pages back.

Well so far we are at a draw.

Unless someone else who is coming votes within the next few hours I call casting vote as I organised the election and that's how it works in TheBrick land. Corruption is rife.

We are only equal as I have cast 2 votes :)

I can pretend my endorsment of hillbilly's sentiment is a real vote even though I won't be there. Is that kind of corruption ok?

We are only equal as I have cast 2 votes :)

Correct! A Win!
