    Dale - been there a few times. You would be walking a lot on a full single ring DH rig. I've ridden it on a Bullit with Boxxers but I had a double chainring up front. (It was hard work). The track's very flowy but you need to be able to pedal to keep your speed up on it. I think they hire bikes there??? If you were gonna hire I reckon you'd have to book in advance because the place is rammed at weekends. (DH riders there usually just push/ride to black jump section not do whole ride)

    I can indeed, Dale. It seems that my mates have all found something else to do that day. Wimps! I'll send you my mobile number in an email shortly. Cheers again!
