Vanished again... Still not dead. I hear there's a rideout happening in a few weeks, looks like it might not be too bad, might have to come along :-k

Ah, that's not a new development, I mainly just use my phone as a really bulky portable clock, sorry if I missed a call!

KG, that sounds about right, I was down there about 3-4 weeks ago and, er, broke a rib while trying to vanish into some trees :smt092 Well played I thought.

Huh was there bank holiday monday- nearly had a heart attack after cycling to the top of the red route, chasing my ultra fit mates. Hit a heart rate of around 200bpm and had to have a wee sit down ;)

When were you there Northy? If I had known you did this cycling-amongst-trees thing I woulda called...

Hah, mega lurker central now. Who's next?

I'm there quite a lot... I do the trailbuilding there so just about every second saturday we're down for a bit of digging and a wee gentle ride afterwards. Funny, the day you left Edinburgh was the day I picked up a new mountain bike and got back into this.

I have rebuilt one of these.

Does the job if a bit heavy... Am thinking of replacing it with one of these
when my new job kicks up some cash.
