r2wtrials Posted March 15, 2009 Report Share Posted March 15, 2009 Two of us over 40's riders went for a play today at our local pallet spot... we allowed youngster Robmitch to join us so we could tell him how we used to do this during the blitz on penny farthings etc etc Both Tony and i are getting a bit of confidence back, helped by 4 iburpofen before each ride!! Tony is in the white hoody, Rob in the black tarty's shirt and me in the bonce bucket with red flames (and the big nose!)Gallery HERE ON PHOTOBUCKET... This is me trying not to think of the crack that will come from my knees when i land... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

r2wtrials Posted March 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2009 You don't have to say it.... after that 4 hour ride i feel it!! I will be 44 this year and Tony 43 i think. I reckon that makes us older than many of your parents, now try and imagine your dads doing this not a pretty sight!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Rainbird Posted March 15, 2009 Report Share Posted March 15, 2009 Jon was telling me about this spot last night. Might have to get up Weston way again soon, need to catch up with him/Ben as it is and since you guys seem to know how to party (and have a sweet pallet spot) it'd be rude not toCool stuff: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reckon that makes us older than many of your parents, now try and imagine your dads doing this not a pretty sight!!!I didnt have to imagine it today, my 54 year old dad trying to throw himself down an expert jump set on an apollo shameful and increadiably embarasing.Some good photos though, i hope i'm still at a point where i can ride when im getting on a bit, at least you can pay an interest in kids hobbies ha ha.
