Great trails there ?

Looked like there was plenty off the one we ride so I'm guessing we barely skimmed the surface

How do you do that? Does it take Strava data?
I recon mine will take about three days in total. Missing bits may or may not have something to do with that...
Lol, don't forget, it shouldn't take more than 10 mins to completely clean your bike ?
And I thought I was bad taking my wheels off ? ??
Yes. Mines set that every time I upload a ride to Strava it send me a notification to ask if I want to process it. I think you get a few a month or something (or pay for unlimited). I’ve only used it a couple of times but it’s quite cool

Hey Benson, you are welcome. I wish I could have caught your acrobatics down the bank on camera!!
Great ride and meeting everyone. Also loved the look of some of the people we passed in a 30 EBike train.
Rob, I Look forward to the next one. Although hopefully not as muddy, it took me far longer than 15mins to clean my bike!
Out of interest, how many out of the 25-30 riders made the whole ride? I came unstuck, i.e. tumbled several times downhill, off Ey-Up T1, so headed back to Peaslake. Off piste? Piste off more like! Mind you, it was nice to meet the gang and bump into @JetSetDemo in the car park. Oh well, will up my game next time. Thanks to Rob and co for organising!

No way!! Sorry to hear this, didn't realise that you binned it.. Hope you didnt get hurt? And also, @JetSetDemo did you make a sneaky appearance?!
@akkypac are you confusing me with jet set? We had a catch up in the car park, didn't realise you hadn't made it through - after the first runs I started acting as a sweeper so to speak and going down last to check no one had got lost or come a cropper, which I think is probably a good idea for someone to do when we have a big group out.
Alas it was not me, I was busy with horrible DIY at home ?
You were missed though!

A random 2019 Levo
No confusion with you. Jet set was taking a separate ride later with other mates (as if!?) so it was just coincidence I saw him. It was my prob entirely that I got separated and think I ended up following an entirely different group! I think you need to hold up some special EMTB Forums umbrellas next time! (Another merch option, @Rob Hancill ??)
So who was the fella who lost his iPhone on the very first ride? Case of mistaken identity then. Sorry.
Apologies! Now I need to figure out who I was chatting to who I met on the very first ride. That's the problem with wearing full face helmets; everyone looks the same! ?
Apart from my ELEMNT holder shearing off, the only thing that hurt was my pride. Thankfully no-one was around to witness 3 dumb falls on the same hill! I'm going to nail that SOB when the trail dries. Looking forward to the next one...and figuring out the identity of the familiar first group rider! Do you know who I was referring to? Had a slight Brummie accent and full face helmet...
He's on the first group ride pic, second from the right (wearing FOX shirt)...
can you post a link to the picture?
Thanks - Which one is you?
Crazy to think that there was only 10 of us and 7 months later 30+ !
I'm third from left...the clean-looking, fresh-faced novice. Funny there weren't as many Levos then either!
