With the weather so good, and having a new Levo which I'm loving, I'm thinking about a short trip over to BPW on Wednesday, arriving early afternoon to ride and then stopping overnight in a nearby hotel, with a full day of riding on Thursday to follow before heading home. Not been there before, only Afan, Cwm Carn and Brechfa and most of the Scotland 7Stanes trails plus Morzine in French Alps, so an experienced rider, although red trails are about my limit, not really a "jumper"!

Still got to run it by the other half, but anyone else fancy joining me ?!

There's nothing like giving a bit of notice, and that's nothing like it! :p

I'd love to, but there's no way I'd get the time off at this short notice. :cry:

Ha ha, yes I hear you! More than a little spontaneous, was planning on a couple more local rides this week whilst I am off but then I thought, "hey, why not give BPW a go ?!". Been trying to get there for a couple of years but organising a trip with local mates and trying to get dates everyone can make has been a nightmare, so it never happens. If I end up going by myself, that's fine, just thought I'd put it out there if anyone can make it, be nice to have some like-minded company. :cool:

Was there last week. Running really well, just a bit sketchy in the dust. Are you riding up to the top? I did and recon you should get 6 runs in fairly easily if you do not go mad on trail or boost.

Yep, that's my experience riding out everywhere at the moment, almost too dry! Planning to ride up yes, not booking uplift. I believe they have the means to charge your battery up too, presumably in the on-site shop for a fee, could be handy. Got to approach the wife this evening and see if I can get the required pass :eek:

Yes they do. £5 to charge, seem to be happy for you to leave it on charge as long as you like.

Thwarted :cry: at least for Wednesday anyway, might make a day trip of it Thursday if I can be bothered to drive there and back in a day.

Ah, never mind, not going to go now, managed to persuade my son to go for a ride with me in the morning and then going to hit Swinley for a big workout on Friday to end my time off, BPW will have to wait for another time sadly! Probably better to ride with others anyway, more of a social day out.

I'm sure there'll be a forum ride out there sooner or later.
