Ely, England
on day three i was out with the crew and we rode across rock faces, into gullys and generally did some bolder hopping.
we came across a drop into one such gulley and i pulled back on the bars and gave it some wellie (gas) and out i popped and found that i hadn't followed the blue painted 'blobs' that are down to guide you.
what the hell i thought! there's a KTM ahead, a 2-smoke. it must be leader of the pack mr velosapiens!
so i pulled back on the bars and aimed the bike hard and fast between the rider and machine who were stood seperately, missing them both just - that is: just enough to frit them up!
as i pulled over for a little R & R with the boys i noticed this was infact a stranger in our midst! ok, no problem i thought :wink:
:roll: :roll: :roll:
it was the land and enviroment officer going around pleading with us all to "stay on the track, follow the blue lines, don't disturb the earth" etc, etc
apparently he'd got the undivided attention of velo and one or two more when whaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh brum , brum whaaaaaah through the middle came this bloke playing 'spot the idiot' AND WINNING :lol: :lol: :lol:
"now that's just what i'm on about" says our green peace lover!
"oh him!" comes the reply "he's from england!"
