Looks great man! I ride 2 wheels but would be good to hook up with people off the forum and see what's going on. My mate Paula from carlisle rides 4X, I'll give her a shout and see if she wants to come down on the 8th!
Is the track pictured above at whinlatter? Cheers J |

Hi Jamie
Yeh we know Paula cos she comes out riding with us sometimes... and it would be great if you both wanna come to the launch day. I was hoping Paula would bring her bike too, so people can see the machines and talk to some of the riderz!
As for the track, the main photo was taken at Ae Forest mate... and the 2 smaller photos are from Laggan Wolftrax. They are both great trails for experienced fourcross riders, but we wanted to have our party at the venue we are using for Taster Days so people can see whats involved. You never know... we might get more members signing up for a go on the day!
See you there?
Cheers, Phil

Ah nice one, I had a feeling you might know Paula! I'll be hooking up with her tomorrow so will see if she's up for coming down on the 8th wither her bike.
I've heard a lot about AE forest, it's well on my hit list! Seems like Laggan Wolftrax is pretty good too, my dad lives up near there in Newtonmore. Laggan was where I first started school at around 4 yrs old! I really need to get up that end of the UK more often, now I've got the hunger for riding again it's only a short matter of time. I'm sure Whinlatter will be good fun for the launch, have you had much interest in from people about having a blast on the fourcross steeds? Cool see ya there!

Hi Jamie!
Yeh it would be great if Paula can come with her rig too! I dunno if Dave can make it and I know quite a lot of people are coming along to see the bikes, and maybe have a test ride the club bike..?
We will have to hook up with you next time we all go up to Ae Forest too if you fancy it? Its my favourite DH venue and well worth a visit... as is Laggan mate, which is my 2nd best place to rip it up!!! Both places have fast trails, with loadsa berms and jumps, etc
 See you on the 8th of August! Dont forget to bring your own booze if you fancy a beer, cos we aint allowed to serve any alcohol with our bbq

Hi Phil,
Unfortunatley cant make it today, lost my car keys at kendal Calling festival last week! The car's still in a field in Lowther park, what a mad week I've had trying to sort it out, long story! Hope you guys have a good day in Whinlatter and I'll keep an eye out for any other things happening. Let me know next time you're off to AE and I'll come up and get introduced. Cheers J |

 Oh dear... I hope youve found your keys now mate! Well I hope the Festival was good aswell. Sounds like you must have got trashed if you lost your car keys? Im looking forward to hearing the whole story anyway! 
We had a good day at Whinlatter ta... lots of peeps turned up for it and lots of smiles when they had ridden the club bike!
So... it has now been decided that we (me and Dave) are going to Ae on Thursday (cos the weather doesnt look too bad) and Paula will ring you about it cos shes meeting us up there at the cafe at 10am ok? I hope youve got your car back now! If you can make it then we can all have a good day of DH-ing in bonny Scotland! So we'll see you soon eh..?
Lets get ready to rip down The Shredder!!! Edited by Downhill Phil - 10 Aug 2010 at 12:07 |

Ah dude don't think I'll get the car back until Friday! Next time if I'm not at work I'll be there to shred some ae dirt for sure, can't wait to check the place out.
Yeh I got myself in a fair old state at Kendal Calling, I'll tell you about it when we catch up!  I really won't be losing any more keys in future.. Have a blast on Thursday!! |

Nice one Phil, good to hear AE was fun!! Would you believe it still don't have the car, it now needs a new ecu. Hopfully I'll have it back for the next time you're up there!
I'm gettin the bike ready for it anyway, converted to single ring setup with e thirteen chain guide etc. I kept snapping my chain recently lol.. so decided that some modifications were needed! I've been checkin out youtube footage of AE, it looks pretty sick up there! I do motion graphics and film/editing for a living and would be keen to get some footage of us guys in ae and other locations. I mentioned it to Paula, we should talk about it when we finally get to meet up mate! She mentioned the MTV person who was interested in making a film about you guys,that sounds great, I wouldn't be making anything at that level as there's zero budget at the moment!
