apparently it's polite to wear a pair of dirt jump tyres as our regular ones cut the track up. So if you are definitely interested I'll order a pair, any particular weekend to aim for?

Or worn XC tyres are supposed to be fine too.

hmm, I have 2.5 high rollers :-/ I think my old xc stuff is in the bin, must have a rummage. Let me know if you're heading over there.

Sounds like a fitting way to send off my plastic bike to be re recycled into bottles. Will try to make it.

Tom

If you can tailwhip by the end of the day I'll give you two sherbit dips and a packet of cola bottles

Just don't wear the skinnies for the love of god man no
TomH

Bring it on DJ,...If I can actually get the entire bike to leave the ground in unison with me it will be a modern day miracle...No skinnies? Really?...I think skinnies would suit my svelte frame...

Myself and Dr.Rob were out there today, it's pretty cool...we spent the most of our day on the pump track...between getting used to my BMX, flats and pumping the first hour was tough going, but by the final runs we were doing ok...Rob was getting some nice air on the easier jumps, and I was getting a few photons between my wheels and the dirt...

A few offs, nothing too bad...it's great craic, serious hard work, and leaves you wrecked, atlhough we were there for 5 hours....

Had great craic at St. Anne's today, sure someone was laughing at me riding with spds, but fuck it! No tailwhips for Tom but there were a few very handy fellas floating above our heads.

Don't ask me why youtube looks so shit, Tom is in between the blotches of colour somewhere.
