Yeah was good. Far too much pushing up the hills from the athletes though. Wimps.

Should say I don't think Cannock is as good as the ones I've been to round where I live though. The downhill on whinlatter is very good and yesterday at mabie forest was a lot better. Spoilt for choice up here with all the hills. Think I'm within 50 miles of 10 different trail centres.

I'd believe that, Cannock is great for a trail centre in the midlands, but doesn't really compare to up north or Wales where there are some proper hills

Who was pushing up hills? That is not acceptable.

cole, doug and kurt. although to be fair kurt hadnt done anything like it before. doug and cole were seasoned pro's i thought full of athletic ability. i had to wait after every hill pmsl.

Not every hill Barnes just the big ones lol and I was pushing in sympathy for kurt. Did like winding hi up saying guess what kurt there is another hill lol. Dougs angry mate did crack me up rage quitting after one lap of fotd and asking if we had any sense of self preservation when me and you were shooting off ahead on the descents etc
