Suspensions and air travel

Hi guys,

I am off to Spain in a few weeks and wondered if anyone has any experience as to whether it is necessary to let out air of suspension and shocks?

I am getting the impression that it isnt really but some people do to be on the safe side...?

Anyone with any knowledge greatly appreciated

Thorndon Saturday 26th 10.30

Hello - me and Nutsy are going to brave Thorndon mud fest tomorrow at 10.30 at the go karts.

I realise this is late in the day so if you're coming I'll check the forum again tomorrow when I arrive, in case anyone plans to turn up.

Will be a moderate pace, about 15 miles in 2.5 hours ish with potentially shambolic navigation (if I'm leading, which I hope I'm not).....


And another one
