T'owld T'hop Posted April 15, 2011 Report Share Posted April 15, 2011 (edited) Hey guys, I have been lurking around for a few weeks now, mainly due to problems activating my account, but sorted it with different email addy. I just wanted to say hello. I started getting into trials many many years ago, and was starting to get the basics, when suprisingly, considering I spent so much time messing about on my bike, I managed to meet someone, get married and have kids We bought a house and my dual slalom bike ended up under the bed with no pedals/wheels on. Fast forward 10 years and we moved to a house with a garage so the bike got a repreve, a mate at the new job rides MTB's and consequently a day on Morecambe prom followed! That will be me hooked again then........ So, I have bought myself a cheap stock, Onza Syrogyra, to see if I can pick up where I left off. I am not expecting to get very good, but I neeed to get fit again, tried running and the gym but that bored the life out of me, may as well be doing something I always loved. Is there anyone from around Morecambe/Lancaster who knows any good places to get started?? Somewhere quiet where I can make a tit of myself without anyone laughing!! I am also a pretty keen photographer if any of you guys are ever in the area I would love to tag along and do some togging. Sorry for the long intro, and notice how I have forgotten to mention how old I am......... Edited April 15, 2011 by T'owld T'hop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T'owld T'hop Posted April 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2011 Hey Nick. Cheers Tom, I am thinking tha canal sounds good for starters, I am actually living near Carnforth so I could get on the canal there and am sure I could find a spot with noone around to laugh Thanks for the help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
