fancy a new (push) bike

<< < (7/44) > >>

Also another previous bike

Spesh Hardrock Sport, again various upgrades mostly to LX and XT, also some Marzocchi Junior-T's and a Thudbuster for rear-end. Still got the thudbuster and all elastomers.  Doesn't seem any point sticking it on the Stumpy.  Baby-Bell on handlebar is Specialized Computer.

Mrs now has a Raleigh Max-Lite FS-1 from about 2001

--- Quote from: "kourgath" ---Cann Wood seems a decent place but I've only ridden the plym valley cycle track.  We're getting a new one up Tavistock Woodlands down to Morwellham Quay by next year.  Tavy woodlands has some pretty decent downhill runs by all accounts.

I've forgotten my Cornish geography due to (sadly) not visiting for a few years (ought to make a point of going back in 2008), but I've been to Margam Park (Plymouth??) a few years ago, if I remember correctly,for the English round of the Grundig.
It was the days of such riders as Tomac, Frischnect & Henrik Djernies both Ritchey), etc.....

Chipshop is a great spot for riding just t'other of Tavistock. run by Woodland Riders club, based at Dartmoor cycles in Tavi. Derek is the owner manager spot on bloke. I call him Uncle wainright, because you can't leave the shop without buying something. :lol:  :lol:

Bush Tucker Man:
Whilst the forthcoming (so called) 'festivities' are by no stretch of the imagination a favouite 'holiday' of mine, I found this 'seasonal' item most charming

Newnham Park, great place, amazing watching Tomac et. al. riding down pipeline. We (C&D LRC) use Newnham for RTV/CCV and the occaisonal Comp Safaris. Held 2001/2 National there, I was Section 1 Leader on RTV and "Time Lord" for the Comp. as I'd written the timing program 5 years before and we had a group of 6 people in the timing unit. I acted as bouncer on the door and resolved the two issues we had all day. I wouldn't let the Event organisers in the door to mess up the timing. Diana and Steve comentating were amazed when I came in just after the first lap and presented them with lap 1 times only 5 minutes after the lap had finished.
