You did well though, 10 laps is no easy feat on that course! Sorry Chris, I wasn’t paying much attention during the Twilight dash, so I pretty much missed it.

Sorry I didn't jump your "dodgy gap" in front of your tent. I just wasn't sure how solid it was, and running solo I REALLY didn't want to come off at any stage! I did attempt to get some decent air on the first few laps off the normal jump though! No mention of the Twilight Dash though? Congrats to Dave Mason for well and truly taking that out!

This means I am interested in your Brigante (is it still available for demo?) or possibly the double9 (that takes 120mm forks doesn't it?) . I ride in Bristol and am looking for a bike that is happy on the new build 'trail center' style trails and plummeting down Picnic Bench and bettering around the roughness in 50 Acre Wood. So, yes, do you have demo bikes available? If so, when and what do you need me to do? I'm a good photographer so I would be happy to do some pictures for the 'write up'. Cheers Neil Hello,

I'm in danger of being a stalker/fanboi. Good to 32 spokes and reliable Hope hubs paired with carbon rims. So many other available options have daft "special" hubs and/or reduced spoke counts... which require high spoke tension, which leads to failures as when a spoke breaks it overloads the others. Ping-ping-ping-clunk! What width are the rims and what's the suggested usage? I hope the rims are nice and wide like Stans to give big tyres. Nice… I’m in danger of being a stalker/fanboi.
