Old blokes who should know better.....

Blimey Dobs you were flying there in a few places, add in some impressive lateral moves and fearless water skiing which would suggest you're possibly a direct descendant of Jesus. Not sure I'd have kept that pace going over some of that terrain with enough water up my arse to make a jelly fish feel uncomfortable.

? ? it was a little damp there eh !
that was great but I think that ultimately I would have lost if everyone was going hard out.
would be fair to say that I was much much faster going downhill but was much slower uphill.
strata florida will be a whole different game.
had a good time

Hit bike park Wales today with Sam, managed 4 runs before the battery and me were both rinsed.

 

[dobbyhasfriends]

genuinely amazed at how quickly kids learn, not even 10 rides under his belt with minimal riding before he had this bike, Sam is already quite quick.. although most of that will be in part 2.
as ive said many times before, im a bike park wales local but have never visited. in fact, when I bought my first Levo, because I was between sizes the guy in the shop asked if I would be doing bike parks "NO" I said... well, i was wrong, the lure of the parks got me and its bitten Sam even harder since we went to Cwm Rhaeadr, all he wants to do is send and jump..
so, here is father and son, bike park wales virgins having a go.

The boy is a natural ! Does he know how lucky he is to have inherited his mothers genes ?

 

[apac]

shame Poppy Ping was closed. It has quite a big jump at the end of it, Biker beware!
Four hikes to the top is all I managed with a full fat levo. Was knackered by then. I need to get there soon with the SL. I don't wanna pay for the uplift, but I just might. ?

Wicked footage. Nice one. ?

We stayed at Merthyr Vale the other week and was taken to some trails up the lane opposite the Topgear garage , if you like proper steep techy DH runs you’ll love them ! A mate owns a b&b below them and is gearing up for mtbers ?

Thanks mate??. Thankfully my beautiful looks were preserved as the soil where I face planted was soft. Smashed glasses, one lense popped out. I was blindly doing my Scooby Doo Velma impression trying to find it.

At least it's not your drinking hand, so you can stay "beer fit" whilst recovering.

The Black run 'Y Mynydd' at CwmCarn in South Wales. I've never ventured onto it before. Now I can see I had good reason? It's a 2km downhill course used for time trials.

yeah, that's about all I can envisage at the moment. No swimming either... It going to kill me.

 

[Zimmerframe]

No swimming either

Can't you bag it ? Or get Dobby to give you a bucket of stuff from blocked drains to smear on your arm, it's impossible for water to penetrate that. ?

Oooo. I don't think I've ridden that yet.

there are new casts around now that are like a web and are waterproof but our NHS doesn't seem to be using them yet. so you'll go through the cheesy and scratchy misery before the removal where you'll have skin like a baby and everything will hurt

I doubt the local leisure centre will want contents of a fat burger floating in the deep end.

I get another more permanent cast in few days, with the NHS luxury of being able to pick a colour! Wooo!

I asked about the possibility of getting a waterproof cast,, I was nearly laughed out of the room.?

Maybe you could fit your visits in with training days - I'm sure they've had worse ?

with the NHS luxury of being able to pick a colour!

Can you match it to the bike ? that would be cool, if not, request something "hypercolour" which changes with temperature.

One of @Gary's unused condoms (he doesn't use them anyway and if he did I'm sure 5 litres of man milk would be of no use to you).

Thats not making me feel any better?

can you imagine... Specialized plaster casts, premium buy, but could be pretty cool.

OK .. how about this then ..

Not a condom

Search bloccs if that doesn't work.

 

[apac]

Good call. I spent 4 hours in A&E today and quickly rediscovered my Apple Music subscription. Clarksons Farm, and Fargo season 3 on the go at present.

 

[Zimmerframe]

Though personally, I think you should play safe and go for one of these .. if only for Pic of the Day.

Im gonna look like that by time the plaster is off.

Bollox to that .. Think of the time you can dedicate to leg exercises. Plus the fitness increase being chased by the Mrs when she discovers you've used the curtains to wipe your arse as you couldn't do it properly with your disabilities.

Whilst mastering one handed bike curls (lucky you have an SL). One handed track stands. (she'll be even more pissed when she finds all the sofa cushions and mattresses outside in the garden). One handed Manuals in the one handed manual machine you made on handed. I'm sure a 1000000 other things .. You can have your own one handed thread instead of hijacking Mr Geriatrics
