Hey all,

new guy checkin in. started riding when i was 14, now 23. just getting back into it after a few years off.
been on 3 or 4 good rides and my bike is already in for repairs, blown rear shock, leaking forks and rough BB.
nehoo looking forward to meetin new folk and riding some new trails.
all the trails i used to ride were killed off. one of the reasons i aint been out on my bike much.
carlton bank used to be great despite the push up from the bottom. my last visit there it had been neglected and pretty much ruined and the wind was a bitch.
great ayton/captain cooks - nice course there destroyed..
hamsterly was starting to get built when i rode there a few years ago.
after a few years off i returned to find one hell of a place. a nice 4x a couple of new runs and the main course nicely finished.
no more wooden tabletop, lots more rocks and big jump at the end to. Smile

gonna browse the forum and see whats kickin. hopefully get my ass out to some new trails when i get my bike back. any info or pointers greatly appreciated. Smile

peace
Moggy

yeah, used to live in new marske, moved to redcar bout 4 or 5 years ago.
is that the Ash that i remember having an ol b17 for a while.
im back to wrecking something everytime i ride. ha. so many broken frames in the past.

i havnt had a proper look in new marske woods, but traka still beat up. good ol top jump still there tho. rode bronze age again a few weeks ago to, bits of it were missing tho.
there is a bit at the quarry lane end that has some good potential but loads of work required.
