RE: [glentress-trailfairies] Session this Sat, 27 Sep
Ideas for fairy sessions ;
A tune up of the unnamed freeride trail? (the lips,landings and berms are getting it bad now,not really much fun on a jump bike)
A4x track ? or bigger jumps line,graded for experienced riders? (maybe doubles instead of funboxes ;-) )

Hi folks,
I'm away at a wedding down in York tonight so cannot make the 'fairy session Saturday (not my own!). Andy Weir has kindly offered to do the session and will be meeting at the usual time (9am) at the Ranger's Office. This session we'll be doing some repair work on Magic Mushroom near the end of the section (heavy braking bumps into tight turn onto last bridge), to get this bit riding better.
So it'll be a bit more relaxed than recent sessions! Thanks again to everyone for their efforts on the Zoom or Bust trail - it was really well received at the race, folk were loving it!
Could you have a think about what you fancy doing for our next project? Ewok village replacement new bit of black trail, off piste freeride area??
Cheers and have a good weekend!
Andy
P.s. T-shirts have been designed and we're just waiting for prices from suppliers - wont be long, honest!
