I think I am gravity assisted but it's all the wrong way - down. Gravity challenged more like.

Old age and expanding waistline means my jeans will never be baggy again so I won't be able to ride that track - what a shame! ;-)

It really looks like the British take MTB serious - I love that.  Once I get over there we'll all have to ride together...how's Scotland like?   ;D
