There's quite few PF mountain bikers.

I used to ride but got wiped out by some dippy bint while on my road bike which left me with some poorly knees and an iffy hip.

Still have my trail hack in the garage though.

IIRC, the discs on that orange won't be far off of 300 quid on their own..
I've got the same, but without floating disc's! - awesome brakes!
I'll have to get some pic's of mine! - got an XC bike!

Boxxer - I ordered my old RST's from Stows there back in 1999.

Went for my first off road ride here last week with some decent MTB guys and girls. Was so much fun. Had forgotten just how much fun it can be inc falling off! That was right up until the part where one of the riders said "last summer I was riding along a fire road and saw a brown snake in front of me, I went to go around it but chose the head end by accident, the bastard reared up at me!"

Apparently they see 2 or 3 on most rides in the summer at which point I told him I was going back to road riding!

There certainly was mate which I wasnt going to mention

I did my work experience for Zoobits who I am sure you will know as the normal distributors back in 98 at the height of it all. They wouldnt touch my forks ordinarilly but as I was the work experience lad, they did. Great bunch of guys who I beleive were bought out by Dawes in Birmingham.
