Chicksands is running fantastically well. The trails are a little bit tacky but completely firm. Everything is running like top conditions.

I drove home in the same kit i rode in ( not done that for a while). Here's a picture of the bike after my sesh as evidence to the lack of gloop.

Oh Jim you missed a goodun.

Made the mid double on the snake run, but bottled the big one you did. Getting my head around it - next time.

The bike is an evil faction, had it for sale for ages but it wasn't shifting so built it up again single speed and fell in love with it again today. It's funny how much faster you rail berms when you haven't got round to fitting a front brake yet.
