Theres a Santa Cruz demo day coming up on the 3rd of June at rotherfield trails, don't know too much details about it heard about it from Will at wildside. Should get to test some bikes properly unlike at bedgebury.

Yeah interesting choice of location. Wasn't sure how low key this was meant to be. Aparently they've got some 'demo' tracks sorted or something. Should be good.
Did you go to the Bedgebury demo day then? _________________

Yes would like to go to this. I wouldn't go shouting about it though cos i think it was meant to be fairly 'secret' (for want of a better word) _________________

I wouldn't call it secret... they've been advertising it in magazines and on their site...
Wouldn't mind trying out a few of the santa cruz's (superlight yes please) but don't know if i can be bothered with booking them out etc...
(Heffs, you me and Jim should make a trip of it blatently)
I went to the bedgebury demo day... thaught it was alright (as long as you were after the XC bikes) but having just 30min test-rides was kinda pointless as you can only ride up the road in 30mins at bedge... _________________ A.BRUCE PHOTOGRAPHY |

Yeah not sure which models are available for testing there. It just seemed a little funny as Hornhurst has kept a low profile for so long and now have blown the cover.
I guess it's good if they're looking to get more members etc.
Yeah as for Bedgers, there wasn't an ideal set-up with the time slots... _________________

| I heard the club wants more members ( just joined myself ) so that they can expand their area more as they currently have to pay to rent out the existing spot |

well i had a work with Will and you have to call up wildside to book out a bike, so its all working through reservations. i belive he said you can e-mail too but phoning would be better recomended.
there were a few nice bikes at the Besdgebury demo...but true there wasn't enough time, and the only bike i really wanted to ride was just for display  _________________ |

Still thinking about joining (said I would often enough) but it would be more to support the cause than anything else cos I hardly ride there. Want to more this year though as the stuff's great fun.
Would be cool to see more stuff developing down that way. _________________
