Riders:Amanda SeddonAndrew Collett Barry Baker Jan McCabe Jon Seddon Jonathan Powell Matthew Guy Mike ODonnell Nick Stokell Pete Warwick Robert Shaw Steve Swanton Tim Lomax Riders = 13 Report:In the morning one group of riders did the Penhydd Trail, whilst the rest of us had a go at White's Level. White's Level was a very hard climb and we looked forward to the descent with trepidation - it had Matthew's front teeth last time! Two minor casualties later we were heading back to the visitors centre for lunch and a chat with the other group. One casualty in the other group - Barry decided to have a lie down on a tricky descent.In the afternoon, we all headed out to the Wall splitting about half way up the climb into two groups. The first group sweltered to the top before flying back down in pursuit of a couple of guys on downhill bikes. Barry had an argument with a tree, with predictable consequences - no real harm done. At the end we all met up at the car park and smiles were all around. Mike said it was the best riding he'd ever done and I couldn't argue with that. | ||
