Backgren Posted August 17, 2008 Report Share Posted August 17, 2008 Hello.It's time to go over to the UK again I'll arrive in London in the afternoon the 19th, and need somewhere to stop near, because I'llgo to the Hook Woods comp on the 21st. I might have something sorted, but if anyone who's going can offer me a place to stay and a lift to the venue it would be awesome.22-26th I have no idea where to go, most likely down south like Reading, Oxford and Bristol, but I might as well go somewhere I haevnt been before. Suggestions?27-28th I'll be around London again, hanging out with a friend from here who's moving over, and going home on 29th.Please help me make up a plan I wont bite you.

basher Posted August 17, 2008 Report Share Posted August 17, 2008 You should come up north where the big boys ride, where the proper riding goes down. Plus the north has the best natural spots in the country id say. Cant offer you anywhere to stay though sadly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ben_travis Posted August 20, 2008 Report Share Posted August 20, 2008 im all about this.....north would rule, however the divide would have to be drawn somewhere....i reckon that the line should basically be around here somewhere;if you happen to be below the line but in the circles, then you will be classed as a northerner...welcome to the group Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ben_travis Posted August 20, 2008 Report Share Posted August 20, 2008 (edited) YOUR POSTahem...there are a good number of riders who are in your list who appear to be within the circles...which basically means they are northern, if you see my original post.
