Thanks Wreford, thats a big compliment coming from someone as experience as yourself! Much appreciated!
I have a few road trips to do, then the TCK's are on! looking forward to getting a bit more grip and being able to push a bit on a bit more. I think my MTB experience holds me in good stead.
I really would like to get out with you and the other guys some more in the future. I really had a great time.
I'd like to get along to the Hog Roast. And do some of the off road there. Next problem is my lack of camping equipment and camping experience! I dont even know how to put up a tent!!!

Maybe just a tarp and sleeping bag will do if the weather is good. Or maybe someone will be kind enough to show me how to put one up. Might get a cheap one that I can just leave behind. Camping is not my style.
Many thanks guys
