Ive Tried uploading the videos that i took onto youtube, nae sure if its worked but go on youtube and type in my username "killingback1984" should work. tagged them all with the website so searching bikescotland.ning.com should work aswell. Ive also put the photos onto facebook.

Now all we need is jaimi to get his finger out and upload his videos!

Dirt School was awesome!!!



I'd definitely recommend it to anyone. The Yoda for the day was Andy Barlow

(current Scottish national XC champ). He's a really nice bloke and is

really good at explaining how you are going wrong and how to correct yourself.

Within 10 mins he had me manualing better than I've managed to do in years.

Simply move all your weight back and hang off the back of the bike... Simple!

You're arms are strait the tension…

I'm lucky enought that my wonderful (sometimes) wife bought me a day at dirt school. I think everyone should take a look ate their site. http://www.dirtschool.co.uk/ Cant wait to go!

biit confused by ur map jaimi, after u go along the farm road through the back of the lee crescents, where u heading coz it looks as if u somehow end up on manny rattrays road before crossing over to the bomby???????

The first map is now up. There is even files for use with GPS devices and Google Earth. To make things easier maps have *MAP* at the beginning and the end of the post title.

about time u set up a real site jaimi, the admb on the bebo just wasnt attracting any interest. this is going to be the best way to find new trails and organise decent rides

I got into mountain biking this year, and when I say "got into" I really mean it!!!
