Nick pointed me towards the site after today's rise so thought I'd join up.

Not had my bike long at all and today was the first time I've ever done that kind of riding. Although my fitness is dreadful a left me down, I really enjoyed it.

Here's a couple of photos of me, the bike and 1 from today.

Thanks to everyone for putting up with me on the ride as I know I was slowing you all down.

All clean again after today.

Hi Daz, on my first day on a bike and after 17miles at Epping forest the following week I was barely able to walk and breath. However fitness level improves very quickly in just few rides

Thanks everyone. Really appreciate the warm welcome on here and also the warm welcome today. This morning I was expecting some piss taking on my speed but it really lifted me when I got support on getting some bits right. Can't wait for the next outing already.

I'm also looking forward to seeing the video of me hitting a tree and stopping dead lol, I bet it looks lame lol.

It's not really Land Rover by name and by nature.................it's not made of rust lol.

I'm really looking forward to using it properly. I've been watching loads of the video's on the front page of the website and it looks so much fun, although some just look painful lol. Nick has told me I'll learn to fall off sooner rather than later so that will be fun too, lol.

My legs are a big knackered today though.

Nick will show you how to fall off, but normally at silly speeds and at a big height as well... We all learnt early on, to not follow him off into the jumps... He does work for the perfect place as well though hahahahahah
