Good pics there GREENI
I alwys try not to brake...just cover them...braking means expending more energy to get back up to speed 
Did you win...the Karrimor endura? Best result I've had so far is top VET, and 7th overall. Next year I'll be SUPER VET, so hopefully more competitive (in my class) again Defender "Puma" 2.4 110 County Utility (possibly the last of the 2.4's)Last edited by MartinK on 13th Jun 2012 9:57am.

Nah, I wasn't that fit
Funny, looking at those pics above....the last pic I have a wrist support on....it's what years of riding rigid does to you 
Congrats on top vet  |

There was a guy on the race on a LAND ROVER mountain bike - didn;t look to be going too well (they don't look a particularly good xc bike...more recreational imho)

MMM yeah, they aren't the best
A regular enduro rider (6&24hr) used to race with guards and a pannier rack, he was always top ten  |

Been going for many years now but it still gets me excited every time! Used to always do a couple of weeks in Les Gets/Morzine, but then moved to doing roadtrips around various spots. This year's the shortest trip yet, just a week to hit up the Mega. I've gone all grown up this year and paid for a (crappy-looking) apartment instead of just dossing under the lift station. Old age....

I drove down to morzine,
amazing trails, destroyed Chatel,  myself on Champery WC track
went out on the for a mates birthday one evening , cue a broken foot and flew home after just 3 days haha
3 months later I'm still off work! recovering. Shame I've got to sell the TR250, no sense keeping it if I can't ride it for over a year! upshot of it all is I did buy a nice defender 90 winch challenge truck and a ifor williams trailer to transport it on to take part in events to replace the Downhill mtbing for now! who knows if ill get back to it? 2011 Santorini Black USW XS. 2015 Discovery 4.5 Black pack Firenze red XS |

there have been some seriously good pictures in this topic.
i ride an old school marin east peak over the downs these days but a couple of years ago i used to jump/trail ride. had a static (jump bike) and a 247. dug up one of the fields at home and had 2 articles in mbuk about them! used to have loads of pictures on trailaddict.co.uk but i have maintained it so most links dont work any more. one day i will get back into jumping.
