Sunday Spin from Djouce at 10.00 22nd February

Do not be lazy, if you are a handy rider , turn up, its going to be deadly, savage but deadly
Richie
right that was a savage deadly spin, some people were slaughtered, but its early season still, and I know you will get better. We lost Eoghan straight away, unfortunate but thats the hard part of learning your ability.
the trails are in great shape, I hope they stay that way. I had some great moments on the bike today, meself ,Alfie and Luke had a great sprint down one of the trails..so fast , so much fun !! well done guys.
There were more than one red head of death out there today.
cracking spin cant believe how dry the trails are great craic and a great bunch of lads and the weather almost reminded me of summer...i love mountainbiking
Thanks for a brilliant spin; it was long and the pace was savage but I enjoyed it so much.

If it wasn’t for all the punctures I don’t think I would have been able to keep up.
I overshot the first switchback on benchcut, let everyone pass and kinda knew thats the last I'd be seeing of you guys.
Myself and gerry gave up trying to catch up at the waterfall so did our own spin, got split up and bumped into each other again.
Upside is noone else seen me pulling a wheelie, then landing flat on me back,shoes still stuck to spd's.
Still had a blast, trails are amazing there.
Cheers

That must have affected your manly hood!
Cracking spin, yet again. So many funny moments, Luke started it going over the bars on the savage climb. The descent north of Maulin was class again and as usual produced punctures, as well as a nasty looking bit of damage to Skippy's arm. I should thank Luke at this point for helping out with the blowing when my pump was not up to the job. Killian then broke a mech hanger (thought those Santy Cruise ones were meant to be indestructible?). The Best Descent in the World really lived up to its name, some near ones at the rock/cliff crossing, the schlompy bit wasn't too bad, then the bottom section was as good as I've ever seen it. Well done Oz for clearing this - now come out mtbing again for feck's sake, willya? Benchcut was also in fine shape. I will leave it to witnesses (if there were any) to explain how I managed to get in front of Al S - I'm still not entirely sure how it happened, all I know is I ended up ahead of him, prompting him to use the words "Ya little bollix", which I thought was rather rich, considering.

Thanks everyone for the craic.

Oh, and it seems Robin was out for a run, which he described as being harder than mountainbiking. Sort of makes a hillrunner feel vindicated.
yeah I was a witness..I heard it all..I looked over my shoulder and saw you , and I was thinking where did you come from !!
a deadly spin and long over due with all the weather we have had lately. the switch backs decent at the middle of the spin was great.

nice one lads
