April 9, 200719 yr Author Big thanks to Dave today for bringing up his digger and dumper and creating some great new sections at the dishes probably moved 140 odd tonnes of rock into position and made a little surrender section and a mega multi step section to name a couple. Cant wait to have a go at it all later this week, almost like Yorkshire in Oxford now New sections?
April 9, 200719 yr yeah big thanks to dave top job...really hot work moving that stone,,some of the new sections a bit full on.. lucky you could only see the sweat in my pants???
April 12, 200719 yr Author First time out on the new Dishes sections today for me and Dad not as bad as they looked but still well hard and tricky to get a good clean. Dan Clarke (Legend on here) turned out on the Skoda for a play, not been riding much these days but made me and Dad look stupid from the off even though we took him to a couple of our mega tight favourites on the Banks Ben and Sam were out again on the bikes and liked the new sections, Joe tried to pull a sicky so he could come out but with no luck. Few pics of Ben and Sam on the link below along with Dan and Dad and a couple of high up shots of some of the new stuff to ride. Ralph was a no show again? you missed a good day again mate Caber arrived later and was splatting a pretty big boulder against one of the walls, actually got up it in the end without the kicker, **** knows how nice one mate. Hopefully get some video of Sam,Ben,Nick and Joe up there soon once I ve worked out how to edit the stuff and post it New Sections

April 14, 200719 yr Author Barry be well worth watching Dan and Joe riding, hope you can stay to watch Tom, he is the B*****ks shame he doesnt ride any more, got my video camera on charge as well hopefully Ralph can do some back wheel hops and famous Y fronts around the dishes ride
April 15, 200719 yr Author No show from cycle boys Joe and Sam today think they were bumming or something, great again although well hot in the bowl. Dad likes his 4rt now after riding Gerty in the morning but will get a few bits to make it more how he likes it. Barry had a good day and stayed till nearly six - 9 hours of it Nice one!!!!!! Dan was well on form again and did a great hop backwards down a steep hill for about 20 feet after his first attempt at a step did nt come off, hopped back down clean and went straight up the step again. Old type of riding these days but great to watch. About 40 or so pics of today below, not many of Barry as he was taking pics pretty much at the same time as me. http://s150.photobucket.com/albums/s85/Thedishes/ Edited April 15, 200719 yr by Betarev3
