I'll take the Superbud instead of The Beast !! I don't fancy crippling myself up that Fireroad on that mad thing !! Don;t worry Rich, the miners is going nowhere !!

I might make it, we'll see. If I do I'll be on the Slayer, it's just too much fun to give up even if that means suffering on the fire road.
well I'm going to join you for this one, missed a couple of other glendo spins recently and I have a rare window of opportunity this evening.. will be on the bigger bike though
Max your dead right..the big big bike is the only way to go !!

Classic spin..some funny ****.
First of all , it appears that one of the fastest riders in the Country is using Mavic 819 rims. the Godfather of Irish Mountainbiking is using them and two of the best riders ever to ride a bike are using them..
Me, Damo, Alfie, The Greg, Mick, Dave Shoulders, Action Jackson and The Red Max hit the miners..
Mick tried to ruin the spin early breaking his chain.Then off we went up the horrible fireroad and onto the first boardwalks !! Jeeebus, we were inside a cloud straight away..some feckin slimy wood I tell you.
Then up the hill to Lugduff and down the deadly rocky holey trail and Max gets a puncture !!
So off down the thousand yard boardwalk..
Jeesus talk about sketchy !!
and on to the rocky trail and almost straight away Alfie rips off his rear derailleur !!
just after what can only be described as the shiniest wooden boardwalk on the planet !!
Off down we went and me and Damo pushed pulled Alfie back to the cars ..
I tell you no fookin fancy rims with 4mm extra tyre exposed wouldn't have survived that lunacy !!
An absolutely deadly spin with a triumphant group of people !!!

yep broke the chain within about 1 min of leaving the carpark, if that wasn't a record then the time we took to fix it must have been (thanks alfie), but then I was playing catch up after that and I just couldn't stick the pace on the fire road but it was worth it in the end... fair play to Jackson on the HT, not easy on the boardwalks or the big rocks .. all in all a great spin, you just can't beat glendo . Thanks.
