Thanks Bob

It feels like I've got three down there now let alone one spare

Thanks to Cabbage for bringing my bike through the stream again it cleaned the mud off !!

Glad to hear it's all mendable Paul. A big thanks to everyone else who nursed me through on my unintended slick rear tyre. Mind you, I said from months ago that I'd be on a Tranny and looking for some gentle laning: deep, Welsh bogs were never going to be a good idea!

Still, the bike didn't miss a beat, and beat some sports bikes through the twisties on the A44 on the way back. What a stunning all-rounder!

A great day! Thanks again,

Philip

Tell me young Terry (how are you by the way?), in the vid there are some small wet stones that alll the bikes are really having a problem getting any grip, front or rear, on until they drop into a puddle afterwards. About 3:00 minutes in and 3:26 especially. What the hell are they, it looks worse than ice?

Yen the only way to describe it was riding on marbles. It was bits of granate balls covered in moss with no adhesion in them at all. Even the XR's and Trickers were all over the place on them

I managed to find this, It didn't look even vaguely like a bog


Thanks to ALL who organised and attended, it was a cracking day out
Special thanks to Stanbloke for having the idea, J for leading and Cabbage for being tail end Charlie all day long

So say all of us!

How the Hell you didn't go head-first into that bog Terry, I shall never know. I was wet enough thanks, without falling over laughing!
