Hi all, i recently came across you guys whilst searching for somewhere closer to home for riding. i got my first mtb when i was 16 years old, some 21 years ago now. please dont think that i am any good, i do it just for fun. after owning a fair few bikes i have just got meself a kona coilair. i have never ridden the sort of stuff you guys have built yourself down there but i am keen to give it a go. i live in goxhill and as you all will probably know finding somewhere decent to ride involves a lot of traveling. anyways, i am keen to come down there and have a look round with the intention of joining up. what days are best for me to do this?

cheers
Swatty

Hi there G Swatman, good to have another rider on board. Hopefully see you sometime up the hill.

Are you planning on coming to the next race? Scheduled for sometime in March I believe. £14 entry inc BBQ and raffle ticket. Great fun and good atmosphere if you want a go?

alright fella, a young 35 here, great bunch up at the hill, the races are a laugh and there's nothing too scary up there (maybe the green wallrides in winter??!!)
