if youve read the other topic on this you'll realise i want to go Very HappyVery Happy

just been talking to chewy and jammy about it and theyre interested too.

so if anyone fancys a trip down sometime let me know and we'll sort something out Very Happy

if you dont know.... its a quarry near doncaster (about an hour and 1/2 max away) from what ive seen heard there are drops from 1ft to scarily big.... jumps big to small... and northshore if the woods

im guna have a search around for someone who knows the area well and who can show us some of the secret stuff (if there is any) and just to meet there and get shown the good stuff (and tell us what the weathers like before we set off!)

if you want to go put a reply saying you do and if you are able/willing to drive (just so we can sort out cars for the number of people etc)

so far:

me (i can drive)
jammy
chewy

thanks guys

Yeah, the shore is long gone Sad

To answer your questions from t'other thread matty (might as well keep it all in one): ground was fine, even with a fair bit of rain the night before. It's pretty well compacted, more rock than dirt for the most part. There were a few sludge pits but they're well away from anything you'd want to ride so no big deal. Probably best avoided if it's been tipping it down for weeks, but nothing to get worried about if there's been a shower the night before.

I live in Gateshead but I'm down in Doncaster at least one weekend a month at the mo. If you lot want to do a trip I can fit one extra in the car, or two if I ever get round to buying a rack for the motor Smile

The DH bit was fun for me but safe to say I'm nowhere near as experienced as you guys. Might be a bit tame for you, I dunno.
