Just to let you know guys and gals that we are all-systems go for the 28th Dec for a road trip to Trail X, Ben and maybe Rich has kindly given up their free time to babysit us.
If you are interested speak to me on race day and I will let Ben/Rich know
Myself and Fragy are going and I think Fish is going too so we have 3 vans for bike transport and maybe 3 cars for passengers so we can all share the fuel cost
Who's Interested?
ME. Bagsy NOT in the back of Fishs van :p ;)

Think my dad is in for it now too so that is one space freed up in van/car for someone else if needed!
Hey guys.
I've got the all clear from the missus for the 28th.

No problem at all Kenny Im glad your ankle is up for it :D
To be honest, it's probably not yet, but I'm coming anyway. I'd have raced on Sunday if it wasn't for the fact that I was on "certificated" sick. You never know where the spies are!!!!!!
I will pm my number over now Rick ;)
I can't remember what was there when you visited last time, but I'm sure we have added plenty more to keep you busy!
And the ankle should be fine at X Kenny, we have some super buff lines there that i dare say could be ridden on a bmx without too much rattle :)
Rich
Looking forward to this do! Great trails there and very much enjoyed the knackered and lack of time we had there last time! So im sure it will be extra good this time!
please can i come aswell? could i grab a lift with whoever is taking my brother?
sorry about the lateness!
hope i can go;)
cheers
We will take Rob and James from Gainsborough so long as their bikes could have a wee space in one of the vans please?
MY DAD ALSO ISN'T GOING MILES TO PICK PEOPLE UP, MUST BE IN GAINSBOROUGH OR BE ABLE TO GET TO GAINSBOROUGH
Ah yer, what time are we meeting, at your place aye Rick?
Rick Brown
19-12-07, 18:57
I dont think we will meet at my place theres to many of us I think it would be better to meet at Trentport because we all have to cross over Trent bridge to get there
I reckon 08:00 at Trentport so we can meet Ben/Rich at 09:15 to 09:30 but I still need to speak to Ben about where to meet him, but I will let you all know.
But all you guys need to get your transport sorted, I hav'nt got room for passengers in my van but I have room for bikes And dont forget that Fish and Fragy have vans for bike but you will still need transport
Rick Brown
19-12-07, 19:05
Basically all you guys that live out of Gainsborough have to get your bikes in Fragy or Fish's van then arrange a lift with Kenny B / Fragy / Fish / Jamie / Craig / and anybody else who has a car who is coming with us :)
Good Luck 1st come 1st served
Could Rob and James please reserve a place each for bikes in a van, they are coming with us as i said but the bikes can't fit in the back/on the back of our car, our bikes are ok on the rack however it only just manages 2 DH rigs!

For those of you who maybe running late on the 28th I have arranged to meet Ben on the M1 North Junction 35A on the A629. Travel along it to the 2nd roundabout to Mcdonalds and we're meeting in the car park with some lads from Disfunktional at 09:30. So we need to leave Gainsborough no later than 08:30.
Still meeting in Trent Port car park ( just over the Trent Bridge) at 8:00 to 8:15.
Any problems ring me on 07947902426 :)
Good work on the whole arrangements view of things for this rick! Turning into the likes of Fish and Mean Bean for their weekends away ;)

Cheers Baker :)
Creep Baker!
Well you must help people with such unfortunate situations as rick and make them feel speTHial! :rolleyes:

25-12-07, 16:47
anybody know how much money we are gonna need i have £25 just thinking if thats enough to cover it if not i can get more cheers ;)
It's free to ride but it all depends on how much each person is wanting for the lift and i'd say take food as the person giving the lift probably wont be wanting to stop for any on the way there or back etc ;)
Hey guys.
The weather forecast is looking poor for tomorrow, but you can never trust the weather man!
I'm giving a heads up as trail x is pretty unrideable in the wet due to the type of ground it is dug on, and although we do have a part of the trail that is made of magical soil(never gets wet!!) there is not enough on that part of the hillside to keep people occupied for a full day.
You guys will still be making a worthwhile trip, just pack some spare clothes and maybe mud tires ;)
Rich
Just to note that it does take an extreme amount of rain to really wash X out, I think Rich was just pointing out that it can be a bit slippy in there in the rain and see-ing as the trails are tight on through trees then expect some fun.
Plus he's a drama queen who stress's out really easy.......calm down mate :)
Yes i really should stop stressing :)
The tracks will be fine, and theres nothing wrong with a bit of sideways action in the wet :p
See you all in the morning!
Rich

weathers set to be overcast any way not rain acording to bbc so should be fine
Looking forward to it.
Trail X will be the birthing ground for my nice new electric polka dot goggles and steve peat D2 :D
See y'all at the trent port tomorrow then :D
got me snorkle, :yeah: more mud, more fun ;)
Ok then fragy ;) Where you off swimming?
waiting for the kind lads from disfunk to show me the way
fair enough! See you all in the morning so long as I can get up!!!! Not at all good at mornings!
nice trails guys, had fun

Rick Brown
29-12-07, 14:44
I'd just like to thank Ben and Rich for yesterday I think everyone enjoyed it,the weather held off ok which made it even better and I would also like to thank all the guys from your end that came to make it an all round fantastic day what more could you want,good trails,good weather, and most of all good friends
Cheers Guys all the best for the new year :D ;)
PS
Rich I cant seem to put a post on your web site ?
it certainly was a proper good day out :D totally buff trails :D and perfect hosts and cheers Rick for sorting everyone out ;)
Glad you all enjoyed it, hope to see you all back soon sometime.....there'll be more built by that time :)
It was an awesome day, and I'm glad you all enjoyed what we had to offer.
As Ben said it will be good to see you all over there again and there will be plenty more new features and lines to play on ;)
Rich
I've just uploaded a very, very short vid from yesterday, i was too busy enjoying riding to get much footage :)
http://www.disfunktional-dirt.org.uk/v4/?p=198
Rich
Good vid rich, thanks again
Mint vids looks like an awsome trial!
Some of your guys came over again today, i think one of them was fragy?
They got a bit of a shock with the extreme track conditions since Friday as it was very very wet and sloppy today!
If any of you do plan on coming over, drop either myself or Ben a message and we can let you know the weather conditions.
It's a long way to travel for the tracks to be un-rideable, although the other side of the hill was still dusty :D
Rich
Rick Brown
30-12-07, 20:14
I dont know who it was Rich but fragy was at the Hill with us today are you sure they was from here, watch out they could be impostors Infact all the car drivers where with us today
Sorry dude i'm terrible at remembering people by their forum names!
It was the guy on the karpiel, Daz is it?
The other 2 were there on Friday as well but this time they were on hardtails?
They came in a white escort van and another car.
Rich
Aye the guy on the karpiel will have been Daz
