There was no team orders for the day 'it was every man for
himself'. The two new boys to mountain bike endures were
'Rammstein & Treehugger' they were very keen to 'have-a-go' at
an Enduro event. Anyway as it worked out the pair off them did
bloody well, Kidder & Chiefy were in a laid back mood for this
weekends event ...
They didn't what to show up the new boys. <> believe that and you'll believe anything..! <> Exciting Course Don't believe
what other riders say about Thetford Forest not been challenging
enough, it's was a brilliant course, O.K. so their are no long
hard climbs but the fast twisty single-tracks make up for that.
If your not flicking form left to right your going up and down
on mini moguls, and there is no time to sit back due to the
speed you are going at. Start Somewhere Thetford Forest
is an ideal place to start off your first mountain bike event,
if it wasn't for the new riders coming into the sport it would
of died a death some time ago. The two new boys to the game
enjoyed the challenge and are now hooked on more events. All the
trailfinders had a slight 'miss-hap' in one form or another.
'That's mountain biking'
