Hi there newbie..

[Jon.]

Please help us out, If you have just signed up, we'd appreciate if you just validate your "human-ness" by writing a few lines about yourself and your bike!

I.E

I'm Jon, I live in sunny ol' worcestershire, I ride a .243 sl and I love it!

Simple as that!

Now make yourself at home, Unless you ride a full bounce then you better grab ya coat!

[lew_bateman91]

grabbin my coat it is then haha

[Jon.]

yeah, and shut the door on your way out!! haha

[pete warren]

what about if you ride full sus and hardtails though?

[dirtydave]

Hehehe, its all good what ever bike you ride we love riding bikes "off road".

But this site is primarily about hardtails so thats what we feature, test, review, talk about. if you own a full bounce thats cool too its not something we descriminate against lol

If ya wanna talk about full bounce there are a million and one site/forums dedicated to them just not this one :)

Hope that clears that up.

Dave

[pete warren]

G' day, I'm Tim from Minehead, the gateway to the Exmoor National park. I work in the local bike shop, Pompy's cycles.
I ride a Dmr Sidekick 2 with some good kit if a bit dated kit. It's a little on the heavy side n a bit short too. But that said, I race dh, bomb about the local hills n woods, atempt to do the jumps at the local bmx track, commute to work and pretty much anything else to boot.
I ride under the Defective team name. Although now it's HTN/ the Defective.
