Ha ha, no point using knobby tyres on that track; the dirt is so hard packed that it's basically like dusty concrete.

No, didn't attempt the first jump, too risky for my level of skill. Loads if crashes on it  :(

3rd straight, guy just in front of me went down in the rhythm section and I rode through/over him at speed  :10_2_12: .
That straight is okay if you get a good pump/manual/jump but get your timing wrong and it easily gets messy... luckily I hit his body armour.

I was the oldest guy in 35-39 cruiser, was very serious and very quick.

Yeah I'm fine, I had another rider to land on  :D
Don't know about the frame, I didn't get chance to look as it was 10pm by the time we got back and I'd got F to bed  ::) , so late mainly for all the crashes and injuries...

So, 3rd pair of forks - this bike is getting like Trigger's broom  ;)

He's sore but okay - a bit shaken after being clattered by me, and he lent me his bike to roll round in the 3rd moto which was nice :daumenhoch:

that pic dont do the forks justice at all they are muich worse in the flesh than that pic shows lol
i think you must have run over into him and then hist the next roller or summat because they are mashed completely .cant see a body doing that although his frame may have but then that would have suffered too i reckon .
