7th August 2005 Richard, Rob and Neil - Banstead Downs

A weekend at the in-law's meant I only had a chance for a quick spin round the local trails on a warm sunday evening.

Still, Neil made a re-appearance after breaking a number of ribs last time he rode with us back at the start of May and Rob turned up to see what the trails were like. Well, they were hard-packed and fast.

7th August 2005 Richard, and Rob - The Big 8

A Saturday afternoon jaunt round the Big 8 turned first into a desperate race to stay up with Rob and then a soggy finish as the heavens opened.

It was still a good ride though and it's always nice to get 25 miles under your belt.

I also finally received the Alps pictures from Elliot (we've only been back a month!) but they were worth waiting for. Even though Elliot is another chronic sufferer of "turnaspensivecamra onitsidis" there are some good ones of yours truly that I was pleased with plus a great one of Mike on one of the of the steep North Shore roll-in's somewhere in Switzerland.

Here's a photo just taken at 8-30pm on Monday evening of my eldest son, Sam, getting some decent air in Nonsuch Park. Quite an improvement from his first tentative steps taken at Swinley Forest back in February.
