Right

Time to take it to the next level, last weekends airtime fest at Danbury has reminded me of a conversation with Joel during the Cwm Carmn trip about jump training.

Who fancies it? If I can get a group together my thoughts are to get Jedi involved or Tom Dowie who advertises at Chicksands.

I am talking getting the Evil hardtail busy on some proper dirt jumps :o , looking to progress to the big stuff at Woburn or Chicksands. Thats where my goals lie, i.e. trying to get confident on jumps big enough that you are in the air long enough to try something.

Any one else keen and I will look for a day in the week or weekend in the next 6 weeks or so.

Trax, I have seen monster dh bikes clear those jumps! I think I might take the dirtbag.

Ok, I'm a maybe then.

It's all in the mind, I'm not sure any amount of coaching would convince me to launch off those big ones! I presume at Chickie they coach on the tables first?

OK Chaps

Role call time. Tony I assume it would be for a 4-5 hour period rather than 9-5?

I could make that date - who else is in?

I'd be up for this, will only have a single speed 4x bike built up which will be fine.
