Dominic - cool - I used to go there all the time but in the days before MTBs - remember people flying model aeroplanes up there and the marines training. Also Haldon Hills. West Hill very nice part of the world!! Anyway, enough as this is becoming very off-topic!!

where can I find the details of this event?

sounds cool, unfortunately my 856 is in bits in the workshop after being painted black ready to become a singlespeed (again) ready for next years SSWC to be hosted in Scotland.

I have still got my old proflex franken-beast that I use for testing - could ride that!  and I am sure I have a BMW-Proflex race jersey somewhere.

Every site out there is watched by programs that are run from say google or Yahoo, for companies that use the information people post for market research.
These programs are called spiders.
So be carefull on forums how much personal information one hands out about yourself, because this info can be used by a company.
Your site Kiwi will have spiders watching it.
Would you like me to tell you how you can find their webbs ?
You would be amazed just what sort of people are using these spiders.

Sorry Kiwi and there I was thinking you owned the site.
I thought you were so clever to have a world wide site.
Hey ho

yeah - never put your email address on a website.  We get about 400 spams a day for some of the old Rapid Descent sales account emails that we used to use back in the 1990's.  We now have spam filtering but it's still quite a job to get through the emails.

So whats the plan then guys.
When is this meet??
It would need to be say a sat or sun because some have a long way to travel.

What about Cannock chase ?
thats about central

i think it should be in the spring or at least after the clocks go forward, that way the ride can go on for a bit longer and the people that have furthest to travel dont end up doing both ways in the dark. unless of course we make a weekend out of it??
an oz is for life , not just for xmas!
