Anyone up for that Moelfre uplift?

Track looks quality:

fatboySlimfast · April 19, 2011, 09:00:16 am

would be more up for Moelfre than cwmcarn, its closer as well!

stom · April 19, 2011, 07:28:23 pm

Looks like a good fast fun track! I'd be up for an uplift day there if one being organised?

Ill be up fro both TBH

fatdoc · April 19, 2011, 08:26:35 pm

in times gone by it was rarely uplifted apart from race meets.

it's the athertons local track iirc..

where the booking site?

You guys definitely going to book? If so then I will - it'll have to be the Sunday (8th) for me, Sat is not good due to work.

Check your email re that local stuff to us. Don't want to post it on here.

We should go to Caersws again too - awesome hill. I think both Caersws and Meolfre will run uplifts if you get X (20?) people to sign up.

Would be good to get a Sheffield based group together for a private uplift day! I know quite a few people would be interested if one could be organised?

Bubba · April 19, 2011, 08:55:33 pm

Definitely an idea

ianv · April 19, 2011, 09:25:06 pm

Up for both (in fact up for anything between now and July), just give the word

Any of the sheff local stuff as well so keep me in the loop.

stom · April 19, 2011, 09:29:14 pm

Does anyone have any suggestions for good tracks that take private uplift bookings and contact details for them? I'd be up for trying to organise a day if we can find a decent venue and date that suits....

Bubba · April 19, 2011, 09:53:44 pm

Well as above, Caersws is a brilliant hill - very steep with several decent tracks up to national race standard.

I think you can do the same at Bringewood (nr Ludlow) which is another fun venue.

Not sure about contact details I'm afraid.

fatdoc · April 20, 2011, 08:17:20 am

hit the SDH forums for more info I reckon...

not the first week of july please...

caersews gets my vote, just been felled, re built tops, variety of tracks... very hard some of them... fastest uplift ever.

fatboySlimfast · April 20, 2011, 01:36:28 pm

Right, ive got ian the farmers number at cearsws to organise an uplift....all those that are in holler.....

doing your own personal uplift is ace, no bullshit and very mellow and the uplift there is excellent and fast

fatdoc · April 20, 2011, 02:52:47 pm

Im in...

this is an ace hill,

Yossarian · April 20, 2011, 03:17:26 pm

depending on date, i am quite keen!

ianv · April 20, 2011, 03:24:44 pm

Deffo

stom · April 20, 2011, 04:51:43 pm

Depending on the date both me and the missus would be up for it! Let me know if you need more bods to make the numbers up? I know a few people that could be interested!

Bubba · April 20, 2011, 04:58:30 pm

Yep. Count me in for some Welsh steepness.

fatkid2000 · April 20, 2011, 07:46:17 pm

Any idea of a date for the above trip? If I'm free I'd be up for going.

fatdoc · April 20, 2011, 08:53:15 pm

moelfre may 6th can not do....

bubba is keen,

to all considering cearsews.... as a mates uplift, it IS the best in the UK.

best day uplift in my life in the UK was a mates day there, the variety of tracks is simply brilliant...
