    New Playground

    I listened to DaveS and am trying to get practice in rough sand ready for the western beach race (one lapper) so i have booked this area to practice on as its sandy and rough but it does have some great trails in the woods.
    If i can get in with the big boys ill'e try and have a bike day on it as its a cool area without any complaining neighbers.
    Irode about 3 hours on the sand with lots of side runs into the woods and am completely knackered


    SO some photos

    the general area




    scenic view



    veiw yhrough the woods with pond at bottom



    out of the woods



    am getting to old for this (as you well know) and a sneaky smoke break




    Well thats my run out for this week i may go back on wednesday if i dont ache too much. MUDWIZ are you looking? cheers mel

    I expect it's somewhere where you are just as likely to get run over by a tank as much as the local wildlife
