While I was looking forward to a ride it was great to get that last little
bit of work out of the way so we could start Mushroom Pie next time.
Having said that, in a slack moment, Moray lead an expeditionary force
into the woods with hand saws to start brashing the new section. He cut
the trees just above head height to give a low ceiling tunnel effect. I
hope we can keep that for the final trail.

So you've decided that it's double black? I agree that is the best option
but I'm sure we can expect a flurry of "Call that double black? When I
were a lad me granny would do that on a cast iron bike and she had 3
artificial knees" "3 artificial knees? Luxuary! Me granny would do
something like that on a bike made of solid lead and she'd been dead for a
decade!" "Dead for a decade? Luxuary! ..."

Definitely. However be aware that the long term existence of the groups
photo archive is a little unclear. Yahoo are shutting down their photo
service since they bought Flickr. It's not clear what effect that will
have on the group. I've saved the logo suggestions in case they are
suddenly nuked.
