If I can remember names was it you Denzil who took a rest in the bottom of that Gulley? You left the bike at the top jammed in the trees? Haha. Didn't take too long to clamber back out and untangle the bike mind!

Pity that Gareth had to be back home on Friday. He had to ride back home in the rain. Hope he got home dry---ish...

Top marks to the boys on the fuel run. There was a convoy of vans going from Service to Service point...

A few crashes. Julian with no peak on the Thursday. Haha but every one finished without to many issues!

Neil had a wee electrical problem but he got it fixed! Took the tank of mind, but then he's used to doing that. Haha. Made me snigger... Glad to see the ribs didnt stop you finishing Neil! Not sure what the pain killers were the boys gave you Thursday night, but you were out of it down the pub getting food...

One other thing springs to mind. I was parked half way down a very steep shaley hill. I hear cursing and the sound of a bike sliding! I turn round and its Nigel sliding past me on his Arse!!! No damage and he was quickly on his way followed closely by Graham..

Top event. Good time at the Camp site and good company...

Well done again all of you

Took loads of photo's of 'orange bikes covered in shit'  - shame half of 'em are total strangers Very Happy 

Down to the start of the first Special Test

Team SWTR - Page 2 DSC03776_zps17f80c09

Team SWTR - Page 2 DSC03778_zpsd67684a1

Tom Sager looked relaxed!

Team SWTR - Page 2 DSC03784_zps5ccfce3a

Dave Thorpe much less

Team SWTR - Page 2 DSC03785_zps48286588

Thorpe and Stephen Sword

Team SWTR - Page 2 DSC03787_zpsd7b94d42

Team SWTR - Page 2 DSC03789_zps907e56a6

A few nice old relic's - and Gareth!

Team SWTR - Page 2 DSC03791_zps9ddc412f

Team SWTR - Page 2 DSC03794_zpscc8cabe0

Unfortunately it started to piss down just as the SWTR boys arrived at the last Special making it like ice

Team SWTR - Page 2 DSC03796_zpsca6dd56c

Wolfy got through the right way up

Team SWTR - Page 2 DSC03800_zps66aca101

Some had a bit more trouble

Team SWTR - Page 2 DSC03805_zps9a40c2ee

Team SWTR - Page 2 DSC03812_zps082a7dfa

But Nigel went through OK

Team SWTR - Page 2 DSC03814_zps1adde76e

As did Graham
Team SWTR - Page 2 DSC03815_zpsb45125fa
Guy also had it cracked

Team SWTR - Page 2 DSC03804_zps84bde675


Denzil was looking good until 'distracted'

Team SWTR - Page 2 DSC03807_zps3708a5ed

When it all went 'a bit wrong'

Team SWTR - Page 2 DSC03808_zps8c6e2d06

But up and away quick - no doubt motivated by some git snapping away!

Team SWTR - Page 2 DSC03809_zps925aaf11

Then the nutters on twinshocks again

Team SWTR - Page 2 DSC03820_zpse0ef8873

Team SWTR - Page 2 DSC03823_zps4a78c528

Team SWTR - Page 2 DSC03824_zps305692bb

Geraint Jones smoothly past

Team SWTR - Page 2 DSC03825_zpsa7c762a1


Them this amateur landed on his arse right at our feet

Team SWTR - Page 2 DSC03826_zpsdd21fbae

Who turned out to be Dave (3 times World MX Champ) Thorpe when he got up!

Team SWTR - Page 2 DSC03827_zps2c5f1f04

Down the pub later, where the camera got passed about a bit, and only found out when I got it back what had caught Joss's eye!

Team SWTR - Page 2 DSC03831_zps8fb69ffc

Team SWTR - Page 2 DSC03829_zps2db1f7bb

Neil's mega painkillers had obviously kicked in by now:) 

Team SWTR - Page 2 DSC03834_zps90bbcc14

You'll need bigger hands to hide that monster mate! Very Happy 

Team SWTR - Page 2 DSC03836_zps233947c9

Next day at a greasy little climb that caused a few problems

Team SWTR - Page 2 DSC03862_zps7a7d23c6

Team SWTR - Page 2 DSC03867_zps8f1c284e

Then Graham's turn

Team SWTR - Page 2 DSC03845_zps803ac6c2

Team SWTR - Page 2 DSC03846_zpsbf1f8675

Team SWTR - Page 2 DSC03847_zpsf9b33a12

Why don't you f**k off with that f*****g camera, you f*****g old c**t was a conversation that surprised a few other spectators here

Team SWTR - Page 2 DSC03848_zps193cbff5

Julian and Nigel pissed through without any drama (or swearing Very Happy )

Team SWTR - Page 2 DSC03840_zps0eb088cc

Team SWTR - Page 2 DSC03841_zpsed6a5d73


Some random stuff

Team SWTR - Page 2 DSC03872_zpsfcc635ee

Steve Plain

Team SWTR - Page 2 DSC03876_zpsb7e4ad26

Then back to the finish and base camp

Team SWTR - Page 2 DSC03879_zps23e1ead9

Still trying to work out how you can manage to look like this after two such hard days - whilst fuelled by fags and junk food!! 

Team SWTR - Page 2 DSC03882_zps939a00c6

Team SWTR - Page 2 DSC03880_zpsb4aa58ad

A well earned beer!!

Team SWTR - Page 2 DSC03883_zps6ac16abb

 There are more but now lost patience with Photobucket!
