fatdoc · April 20, 2011, 10:35:03 pm

ignore the wind noise..

and perhaps speeded up a bit at the start.. and it's not the midlands track of old...

nevertheless

recent footage

So, anyone up for a spot of Wharncliffe next weekend? sat/sun/mon good for me.

Bubba · April 26, 2011, 05:40:28 pm

I might be up for pr0ncliffe later on Sunday, not the usual Fatdoc starts as my shifts are particularly gnarly this week.

Bubba · April 26, 2011, 06:23:56 pm

New DH tracks a comin' - shame they're so far away but will be good to combine with Cwmdown : http://www.bikebiz.com/news/read/new-mtb-centre-for-wales

Let me know if you are up for it. I would go down am and meet up when you arrive.

Wharncliffe was A++ today. Hardly anyone there, bone dry and dusty.

Started to learn "Truffle Shuffle" and loving it - can't ride it fast yet but I'm really psyched to get it dialled:

no, no fucking no. broken collar bone so no molfre for me (next sunday). cwm carn (8 june) now only a maybe depending on the healing power of stella artois. anyone interested in the uplift spaces?.

operation tomorrow. bummer, bummer, bummer!

Bubba · May 03, 2011, 04:19:09 am

Hope the op goes well Ian...

fatboySlimfast · May 03, 2011, 11:50:12 am

might be interested in the cwmcarn space for myself and I can get you a possible filler for the moelfre space

ianv · May 03, 2011, 12:53:41 pm

have asked about a refund will see what they say. if thats a no no it will be up for grabs. reckon cwmcarn is deffo off for me so again will try to get a refund, if i cant its yours.

edit cant cancel molfre so if you have someone let me know so i can pass the name on.

fatboySlimfast · May 03, 2011, 01:10:38 pm

fatdoc · May 04, 2011, 07:53:04 pm

fatdoc · May 04, 2011, 10:08:47 pm

best film since the tipping point I reckon.... ( which is a wkd season long look at the times and tribulations of Sam Hill post first worlds win 4 years ago)

Clay Porter is ace.... I dont even like most Dh MTB racing films...

fatdoc · May 04, 2011, 10:18:24 pm
