MBR visit's Ireland!

Mountain Bike Rider has an article on riding in Ireland in the January issue. They came over in October (I think?) and rode the three trail centres and Djouce, guided by Victor and Niall. Seemed to enjoy themselves but the tone of the article is a bit condescending - as you'd probably expect!
Some of the more interesting quotes;
".....mountain biking has never really taken off in Ireland, being the preserve of roadies looking for a change of scene and outdoorsmen looking for another way to test themselves." I wonder which of these catagories we all fit into?
"The Epic Blast ........It looked hilarious". "A surprising number of events take place in Ireland.."
is that MBR ..if thats the **** they come out with I'll be writing a Richie Byrne reply to it !
That's all very well, but did they test 20 different valve caps and which one was the winner?
yeah Rory O'Keeffe was saying at the weekend that he did a shoot in Bally-*****-ass for that so if he has anything to do with the writing it won't be so bad.
i'd say the Eenglish journo did all the writing and Rory and Niall did all the riding..
I can just imagine the drivel..I swear..this resting up one day a week is doing no good for my anger management..
and the "ignore " button has lost all therapeutic value.
will someone send richard L an orwell wheelers application form.i cant believe you admitted to reading that fcuking sh1t.in fairness now did you really expect them to say we had anything better than them
