So Mr Weatherman says the weather is going to improve as the week goes on.... all being well and he is correct, anyone fancy a Thursday evening blast around epping?
I live like 5 mins off J26 so head up into the woods there. Ideally looking for one of you lot that knows the place abit better than me, only ever found some decent singletrack a few times and that was definatley luck not judgement....

Any takers let me know....

Cheers

Nice - I think Rich_Supreme has one of those - fairly rapid AM rig by all accounts

Yup I have an 09 Meta 55 uk...awesome trail bike. Great in the single track, plenty of travel and is great over Epping. Also taken it to Chicksands, Afan and even the DH runs at CwmCarn...which wasa bit intense (hence the Supreme Min DH) but it held out ok.

Yeah, my mate sold his prophet frame to buy a meta so it was on his recommendation really....
How do you find it climbs mate?
Not too much of an issue in places like Epping but places like the new Monkey trail at Cannock have some serious switchback climbs.
