Puddletown, But only just, monkeys climbing on your car's sunroof and showing you their arse is excellent entertainment for the kids...

Thanks Eddiebaby that was most enlightening.

Anyone else (that evidently hasn't been at the Christmas Sherry already)?

Cookea - I was thinking about the trails in the surrounding forest, rather than having the rubber stripped off my car.

Sorry Andy. I really shouldn't post after consuming alcohol.

Puddletown for me - mainly 'cos I live in Weymouth whenever I can get down there.

No hangover. I'm obviously still not done enough. I'm about to get off a train in Reading and go shopping. That should sober me up...

Puddletown is riding well and is fine in all weather if you stick to the top half.
I'm there next Friday 9.00-11.00 and will be doing a few days between Xmas and New Year.

Couple of years old but 3rd run in this video is now all open hillside after the logging but is still there and running nice the rest are all still there along with plenty of others.

Great video, nice riding! Earlier this year I popped the drop transition at 5"17s but lost the front landing on a diagonal root hidden under a muddy puddle - crossed the fire road in a tumbling blur of grazes, with the bike passing by overhead. Pushed back up and rode it properly. A few years back I'd have dismounted and scrambled down or hit the ground like a sack of potatoes and really hurt myself - so that's definitely progress!
