Funny you should mention that Tina mi darlin', cos I is organising a Dirty Girls Quarry Weekend on 28th Feb & 1st March.:thumb2:JB

Im probably going to post it on the Pink Way Round, as its another Dirty Girls event.

So any budding orf roadin' lassies out there that want to learn how to in a nice quite and controlled environment, chuck me a PM.

But dont forget numbers are limited.:rob
 
Arse - that was me, I hate sharing a computer, you'd think we'd get it right by now or at least use one of the other two laptops around here!
 
Where did I stop?

Yep, just below Foel Frech at 429 metres above sea level... :D

The next trail was 'Crushed Lamb', if I remember correctly.

Lovely little lane...
457821643_FQdVy-L.jpg


... with lots of countryside around
457822924_Bis3Y-L.jpg


Wet, muddy, slippery...
457818668_UGrr7-L.jpg


... with some tricky rocksteps along the way...
457818184_zXYvv-L.jpg


What more can you possibly ask for? :D

We then stopped for a well deserved lunch break at the Café... :fnikefork
457819060_AVycX-L.jpg


... in Pentrefoelas - nice food, friendly service, reasonable prices - highly recommendable! :thumb2

Practice makes perfect - so Tina showed us a few more of these deep muddy ruts... :augie

Rob looks a bit knackered...
457879558_fjhcw-L.jpg


What have you done to him? You didn't tell him to bring his SE while everybody else turned up on pogos, didn't you? :nono
457872674_chDgx-XL.jpg


With the weather closing in and darkness falling, we decided to ride home quickly and get into the hot bath before the boys... :D

Looks like everybody was well pleased with the day's achievements :)
