We had the usual bike chat about where to ride in the area and what sort of bike etc, his new On-One 456 Ti was very nice, lightweight and really comfy during the short spin I had on it. The finish was eye catching a dull metal with flame graphics sort stenciled and polished, lovely.

Hopefully see you soon, for a longer ride without the pressures of dashing off for pre-arranged meets.

Ben & Bryn at Leith Hill

We meet Ben & Bryn on the Leith Hill at  the bottom of the trail that many years ago used to be known as ‘Mother-in-law’, they were enjoying the blast down while we were gathering our resources for the climb up. A brief chat and it emerged they were from Brighton and were exploring the area – hopefully we didn’t confuse you too much!

Be good to meet up and exchange trail knowledge.

Tony & Rosanna

We met Tony & Rosanna by the trig point at the top of Holmbury Hill on 2nd August. They live in Holmbury with the North Downs playground right on their doorstep, happy bikers or what?  They helped us out with directions to a trail that was lost in the mists of our memories.

We had a great day guys and hope you did.

The guys were on their annual expedition from Worthing to Eastbourne along the South Downs Way. They were planning on an overnight stay just outside of Alfriston so that they could spend the evening eating and drinking in the ‘Sussex Ox’ pub – a good choice!

This is what mountain bike riding is all about, getting out and a good time bunch of mates. It doesn’t matter what sort of riding you prefer it all fits into the category of having fun in the fresh air.

Good to meet you and hope you made it safely.

Hope you had a good ride and maybe see you again.
