Pretty much just that the big stump that used to be right in the way of the exit on the right-hand lines has been removed.
I did find Star Wars a lot easier this weekend than I have the previous few, I have to say, although I was riding a little more confidently than I have been (or so I would like to think - three good crashes (not all in SW) may say otherwise though!).
Ace day all round...

I wonder, is that tshirt I left at the waterfall thingy up the fireroad still there? It made a fine bike cleaning rag, and will be passed down the generations of riders to come Cheesy

the line onthe right in star wars looked a bit too motorway ish for my liking..the one through the middle over the 2 big roots was easy enough..maybe the right hand side will be taped off for racing? the drizzle was mis leading i thought it was going to be a nice relatively dry day until gtting tot he bottom of the first run, asolutely soaked! Brakes were messing around all day not a run without wearing a pad down...but still good fun  Grin I dind;t notice much hitting my pedals or BB on my ironhorse and that is pretty low, are turners lower?

Jason was talking at the end of Saturday about running another Rheola uplift on 22 March, but that was a "well I would like to" not a definite.

on the last run and my brake pads fell of the metal(again, dont buy imperial pads)

please don't blame the brand of pads its not that its due to the kind of dirt at Rheola it wears pads down in a few runs
