Hi,

Where will the club night be?

Thanks a lot to the TRF guys I met on the Gibbet Hill Byway near Hindhead today - I would never have made it up "The Step"without your help! Here's the video I took of you going up it:

I got stuck on that yesterday! I decided to turn round and go a different way ha! That video makes it look so easy!

[Chris990]

Even the trail to get to The Step was pretty tricky, particularly where there was that bottomless rut! I will try it again once I've had some training on my bike, hopefully it will be OK then. Which bike are you riding?

[ShaunGASGAS300]

I'm riding a gasgas ec300.

My problem was I approached it to slowly so had to put foot down, then it was too awkward to get the momentum back again. Now i have seen someone do it, i reackon I could do it myself.

Sometimes it's just seeing someone do it, just to do that it is doable. - Might have to give it a try this Saturday!
