Really fun section. Would be disrespectful to film that obviously. If you want to see that sort of thing, Indianna Jones shows it better than we could.. Title: Re: The New Pleney/Egyptian track...

Rich rich are you able to fly out next week somtime? is you bike ready? Title: Re: The New Pleney/Egyptian track... Post by: Rich-ard on June 01, 2008, 16:15:26 PM Erm possibly. My frame should arrive here on Wednesday, and depending how fast cycle scene build my wheel i should have a bike by the end of the week, which, in my opinion, is a little too optimistic.
Then i have to factor in my physics exams! If i have a bike ready i'll be catching the next plane to egypt on Saturday, and hopefully my new passport arrives tomorrow :) Rich Title: Re: The New Pleney/Egyptian track...
