Lol, I agree that there are very few occasions on which 10" of travel is ACTUALLY needed, but I'm not gonna say 'no' if it's free, right!? I've seen the pics of your Reign - very nice! I have the same issue with mine that I just can't get the seat down low enough for some things (I understand this sounds fairly lame) so if I ever race on it I use a super short seatpost, but I can't be arsed to lug that around just for the odd drop or super-steep bit. Ok I know where the jump is afterall - and just to clarify - I WAS clearing it thank-you very much (not to flat tho - I'd be impressed if you're getting that!). Hope the finger's well and good now - hardly sounds ideal when you can't use the front brake!

I thought drops were your thing... Bad experience sometime? Looks cool though, but then I do have a bit more suspension than you! Can't really say I know where the ski jump is, sorry. Only been up there once back in March/April. I take it you've ridden the tracks up on the Wrekin itself? Nice drop at the bottom there.

Talk me through where the landing is on this, Pete... Is it just one long downslope? (Excuse my ignorance - the tree branch is obscuring stuff!) Was thinking about hitting the Ercall again sometime soon - think you've just made the decision for me!

Ahh did you? Was it organised by a guy called Mike? Did you enjoy it? Quality place - was thinking of doing an uplift there next weekend. Keep to the mountains and off the roads!

I dunno - you leave school and straight away hurt yourself ON A ROAD!? Thought better of you, Toby! ;)

Ha ha! Real estate is a slang term used to describe the fresh grass often found to the sides of the more obvious 'sheep-line' of race track. More often than not providing a chance to steal some vital seconds during a race run. (I think it may have originally came from Rallying, but I may be mistaken on that one). Does that make sense..? Keep it pinned Emma! One more thing, just how do Muppets ride? Have you ever seen one? They might be really good..
