Been damp up there all day but not really really wet, forecast looks ok so fingers crossed Ladders will be running. Just been putting the final bits in place on the Ally, it's looking so cool!! Got a Mini Monster Truck start ramp and a Hagglunds DJ booth on the track...........now we just need some sunshine and we'll have a full on 'JAM' going off!!!

While I'm here people some more points to remember for tommorow......

We have a temp push up route in place for the Ally up the field PLEASE USE IT, stay close to the fence line (Farmer wants to sell the grass) and don't walk up the uplift track!!

Just cos tomorrow is about Ladder Ally don't feel pressured to ride it if you've not done it before, it's an advanced trail!....instead why not grab a drink, enjoy the tunes, walk down and watch.....then go ride the rest of the park.. 

The park will be soooo busy, loads of riders, so give each other space, be nice, no attitude, we're known for having a chilled out scene, we want to keep it that way!  Grin

**PS as soon as you've signed in, you can ride! Uplift (too big rigs) runs from 10 til 4:30 No lunch break!!!  :'( **

Me and 3 mates travelled up for the second time to uk bike park today and we had great fun! The tracks were fairly greasy in the morning, but really dry and fast as the day progressed and the sun came out. nice music, food, good friendly atmosphere and a consistent uplift! well done guys it was a great day!!

Thanks to the organisers for this one! Me and a mate drove up from Cornwall to ride, having ridden at the park before. We were both mightily impressed with the trails and the efficiency of the uplift. Big Grin was the first trail we 'rode' in the morning, or rather slid down and it certainly lived up to the it's name. We had it nailed by the end of the day though!

So thanks again! And thanks for the free dakine stuff!
