did you get any bother from the farmer at the bottom of water breaks its neck? he gave us a bit of shit last time we were there but when we stopped to chat he calmed down and let us thru, he was moaning that the  "4x4 bastards are wrecking it for you boys too"
he then showed us where the correct access was from the other side but not from his land, we went around the other side to be met by another angry farmer, seems they dont get on,  but we did manage to find the correct route in the end!

No mate there were only us fools out in that weather

Cheers Clarky for leading and Viv for sweeping, a few funny parts were, Viv don't stay so close behind when Jaden & I are pratting about hence the Roosting opps Sorry  (Jaden I still owe you)  The fella with the long legs just keep falling over when he was stood still (you would think he'd been drinking) you wouldn't have believed it even if we had  filmed it  Cattle grids are very slippery aren't they Jaden, but the banks & woodland were great fun. soaked through and froze by the time we got home, still better than working any day

Unfortunately Joe done an hour and went home Helena was awake all night throwing up and I just up and left in the morning so the guilt was eating away at me and I left! Glad I did cos she was proper rough when I got back and so glad I had come back but said I should have stayed out, sounded like an awesome day too but there'll be others

Bloody hell she must have been proper bad for you to feel guilty Really hope she is feeling better soon.

Jaden packs a cam don't he...? still hope for pic's or footage me thinks

I think there were a few pics taken by the swansea boys

Cheers Clarky for a great wet day just a few pick from the day taken by Leigh Nylonz.

You made the right move there mate. Now you can have your garage extension.

That's the plan

Na you made the right move there mate, ohh yea how was the bike after the rebuild Joe?

Much more power (like I needed that ) I forget how much it drops off with worn rings I assume it's not smoking anymore too?
