As usual not too much persuasion was needed and Dave, Si, Jason and Darren were waiting at my place when I returned from the school run. The plan was… Continue reading »]]> http://www.southdownshosting.co.uk/smtbsite/2011/05/sdw-mid-week-skive-ride/feed/ 0 http://www.southdownshosting.co.uk/smtbsite/2010/09/maxx-exposure-2010/ http://www.southdownshosting.co.uk/smtbsite/2010/09/maxx-exposure-2010/#comments Wed, 29 Sep 2010 21:52:45 +0000 Hummerlicious http://www.southdownshosting.co.uk/smtbsite/?p=988 #leftcontainerBox { float:left; position: fixed; top: 60%; left: 70px; } #leftcontainerBox .buttons { float:left; clear:both; margin:4px 4px 4px 4px; padding-bottom:2px; } #bottomcontainerBox { height: 30px; width:50%; padding-top:1px; } #bottomcontainerBox .buttons { float:left; height: 30px; margin:4px 4px 4px 4px; } Yet again the weather looked promising for the MaXx Exposure. They have been very lucky the last few years and despite the fact someone seemed to have flicked the ‘winter switch’ on the whole it was a nice evening and perfect for the race. We were manning a checkpoint again and as in previous years… Continue reading »]]> http://www.southdownshosting.co.uk/smtbsite/2010/09/maxx-exposure-2010/feed/ 0 http://www.southdownshosting.co.uk/smtbsite/2010/03/march-2010-quest-ride-report/ http://www.southdownshosting.co.uk/smtbsite/2010/03/march-2010-quest-ride-report/#comments Sun, 14 Mar 2010 15:54:23 +0000 Hummerlicious http://www.southdownshosting.co.uk/smtbsite/?p=753 #leftcontainerBox { float:left; position: fixed; top: 60%; left: 70px; } #leftcontainerBox .buttons { float:left; clear:both; margin:4px 4px 4px 4px; padding-bottom:2px; } #bottomcontainerBox { height: 30px; width:50%; padding-top:1px; } #bottomcontainerBox .buttons { float:left; height: 30px; margin:4px 4px 4px 4px; } After last month’s mega turnout I was quietly relieved to have ‘only’ 17 riders along this time. Like last time I had a route planned, but this time I was hoping the puncture fairy wouldn’t strike and we’d actually get a chance to complete the route. As ever I like to make it worthwhile and get people… Continue reading »]]> http://www.southdownshosting.co.uk/smtbsite/2010/03/march-2010-quest-ride-report/feed/ 3 http://www.southdownshosting.co.uk/smtbsite/2009/09/a-great-week/ http://www.southdownshosting.co.uk/smtbsite/2009/09/a-great-week/#comments Mon, 14 Sep 2009 19:01:54 +0000 Hummerlicious http://www.southdownshosting.co.uk/smtbsite/?p=535 #leftcontainerBox { float:left; position: fixed; top: 60%; left: 70px; } #leftcontainerBox .buttons { float:left; clear:both; margin:4px 4px 4px 4px; padding-bottom:2px; } #bottomcontainerBox { height: 30px; width:50%; padding-top:1px; } #bottomcontainerBox .buttons { float:left; height: 30px; margin:4px 4px 4px 4px; } This is a biggie, so apologies!……. The weather has been so good recently, for mountainbiking it really has been one of the best summers in many years. The trails have managed to remain dry and dusty, even after rain showers and I reckon they are pretty much perfect at the moment.
