Ben Cox Posted September 9, 2005 Report Share Posted September 9, 2005 heya i might be going up to aberystwyth to visit my bro soon, just wondering if its worth taking my bike if there is any decent riding/ and riders >_< Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted September 9, 2005 Report Share Posted September 9, 2005 Hey Ben, Yeah, there's some really good riding there, and as long as you've got better directional skills than Aust (as in you can tell your arse from your elbow >_<) you should be able to find it. There's some cool street, and loads of good bouldery techy natural stuff. Good good good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark W Posted September 11, 2005 Report Share Posted September 11, 2005 *gets to Aber, phones Tom* Me: Hey Tom, how's it going? Tom: Not too bad, ta. What're you up to? Me: Just riding in Aber. You still up for riding? Tom: Er... I can't today, sorry. Me: Really? What's up? Tom: I'm out kiting in Borth with my friends on the beach. *gets to Aber, phones Steve Saville, gets to answerphone* Me: Hey Steve, you still up for riding? *hour later* *phones again* Me: Hey Steve, you still up for riding? Steve: Hey mate, sorry I'm so late, my friend got washed out to sea, we had to try and get the lifeboat people to help get him back in. I *rule* at doing grouprides in Aber. The last group ride I did there that everyone turned up to was June 22nd ('cos it was the Corris national day after), 2001. That's right, folks, 2001...

Will Arnold Posted September 12, 2005 Report Share Posted September 12, 2005 what date? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted September 12, 2005 Report Share Posted September 12, 2005 I'll be there on the 25th September <_< Shall we do it then? Less chance of work clashes, etc.? Unless you lot are coming by train :unsure: Either way, I can only make it then so I can meet you then, Ben? Den? Hen? Ben - when you go there, go into Summit Cycles, drool over all the cool stuff, then ask if Martin Walker's still working there. If he is, he usually rides after work, and he'd probably help show you around. Plus he's a f**king nice guy, and an amazing rider. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aust Posted September 12, 2005 Report Share Posted September 12, 2005 can anyone do things on weekdays ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted September 12, 2005 Report Share Posted September 12, 2005 Depends when it is (Y) Trains take 4 hrs to get to Aber from here (45 miles aka just under an hour by road, yet 4x that length by train :blink:), so if it's half-term I can get a lift down there, butotherwise it's a right mission. I'll still be there and show you round Ben :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
