Should we be prepared for Arthur's Army to be leaving every available log, branch and twig in the way? Good news though.

firstly well done dcl and co for a hard fought and tiring campaign!!!

@ sponging machine, rich if you look at their fb page they aren't too happy, "fighting on" & "they've not won yet" etc etc 2we will observe their every step along the process to make sure they don't deviate" etc etc

logs on the track aside (of which I'm sure will happen) I'm awaiting a flurry of fake collisions and near misses by wreckless and dangerous mtb'ers in order to get it closed.

I quote from their page, "when the 1st biker dies from impaling themselves on a tree or drowning in the river, then they will close it"

FFS thats what they truely believe!!!

but again well done every one, and jules/millie your kids must've been happy to be in the rag!!

Carl, our kids were well chuffed to be in the paper. Toze's kids were cute reprazenterzz too, but got all shy when the cameraman started moving people around. Millie and I are also somewhere at the back. Probably just as well in my case!

Well done Dave/dcl too, you've put a lot of time and angst into all this, especially considering you have no vested/work/business interest in it other than getting your own kids and other peoples' out on their bikes!
