The MTB thread

I carry most tools and a pump and know DMC does too.
Don't worry if you haven't got all the tools yet, I'm sure we can bail you out between those of us going.
There's a cafe there too so don't load yourself up with too much food, just munchies etc for on the way round.
Probably worth sticking a waterproof top in your kit though.
I'll be parked up somewhere in the first car park with the minging mondeo and the blinging cannondale that I've posted pics of on here.

Thanks, I'll PM a few people my mobile number so you've got it. I'll be in a black Passat aka The Hearse and try to get there a bit earlier

Rob......by first car park, you mean at the main visitor centre? Just to make sure as there are two visitor centres.

Woop.....looking forward to it now.

Drew, I'll be at the main visitor centre reserving tea and cakes...

I'm back in brum at the weekend but I've got to bring a car full of stuff back with me so if I can fit the bike in I might see you all saturday morning, I'll also work on the grumpy one unless he is actual busy or just jibbing out

looking forward to this guys is there anywhere to warm up properly before heading off up the trails? I usually spend the first 10-15 minutes thinking "fack me I can't do this" but then once I'm fully warmed up I can go for hours. After mastiles lane I decided I'm gonna do a 10-15 minute blast before the trails just to get all fired up

Paul, just the man...

Don't suppose you have any carbon fibre effect vinyl kicking about do you...?

[Paul the 6th]

ooooshh.. I think I *might* have a tiny bit in the garage - how much do you need?

The stuff I bought in before was ridiculous like £39/metre (on rolls which were 1570mm wide) but more suppliers and brands of CF vinyl have popped up so might be able to find some a wee bit cheaper.
