<br />
A really steep, loose, dust, and wild track, deffiantly appreciated by the riders.<br />
<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/tomgrundyphoto/4760018923/" title="0002 by Tom Grundy Photo, on Flickr"><img alt="0002" height="333" src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4074/4760018923_ec26a5d441.jpg" width="500" /></a><br />
<br />
<br />
Standing at the top gave an impressive view over the llangollen valley and into the town bellow. but also down to the pits and the finish, something you don't get much. You could hear the commentators all the way up the hill ( don't know if thats good or bad) and 90% of the track could be seen from the finish area!<br />
It felt like you could jump at the top, and you would make it into the finish line.<br />

<br />
The most technical section, with lots of gnarly line choices. and lots of crash's<br />

<br />
Pretty much the the whole track is very open, and surrounded by ferns!<br />

Bernard calls me up and tells me to get round his house, and to bring a spade.<br />
Its quite possible that bernard had killed one of his two brothers, and wanted help hinding the evidance.<br />
Lucky enough, it was just to build a pump track.<br />
<br />
<br />
Start with 15tonnes of earth spread it across your garden.<br />

<br />
Really fun weekend, lots of good friends, and lots of good riding. Best round yet!<br />
<br />
Me and Sam Boardman left the site at 7.30. I edited in the car as we went, and we got home at 12.15. I then finished off the editing, and exported (with the wrong aspect ratio) and uploaded.<br />
Whilst waited for it to upload at around 4.30, i fell asleep!<br />
<br />
Back up at 8.30, send out e-mails to all the people.<br />
now thats commitment!<br />

This is what a tyre looks like MID explosion. Ste hit the berm hard and rolled the tire of the Rim the inner tube exploded and was as loud as a gun shot.<br />
This is the inner tube mid-explosion thats not dust.. thats air coming out of the tyre. You can also see the rim bending if you look closly.<br />
