    Fair play to the cameraman Louis! You made it seem smooth and effortless round there. Was it? :wink:

    No I found it very hard work so different to trail riding but great fun :thumb

    Hopefully we can do it again would be great to see you throw the 640 around there :clap

    Didn't think you'd be allowed to play?

    Cheers for the video footage Louis, would like to see you round the track on something smaller than a HP2... :thumb

    Any pics to post?

    Here are a couple of Ela's:

    Suprised there wasn't a newsflash - earth tremors felt in Southern England, epicentre traced to Ashdown. Siesmologists are investigating claims that the tremors were caused by large objects impacting the ground. :D

    I would have posted that Paul but didn't want everyone seeing how you'd been passed by a 5 year old on a pitbike. :D

    Thanks to a gentle nudge from Possu... here are some of the pics I and Louis' better half took:

    Here is the open part of the track, taken from where the jump shots were taken - quite big, and quite steep...

    [​IMG]

    This is me, coming up the main drag:

    [​IMG]

    At the top of the main drag, here is the ramp. This is Possu thinking... "I can jump way higher than that!"
