    Great profile pic Laurence... The thing I've learned through skiing (and to a lessor extent biking) is that what feels fast, or 'massive air' is actually not.

    That however, is certainly massive air.

    It really is! Everyone is helpful and good banter, as well as good serious off topic threads as well. It's all here in all honesty

    Haha thanks! Did manage to land it but it was a bit sketchy.. Let off the throttle too early taking off which pitched the front down a bit too much Never had a go at skiing, wouldn't mind a go though!

    I'll have to see about heading to some meets once it warms up :)

    Cheers man! Les gets in the Alps for a week to watch crankworx, then have a week of riding mountainbikes in and around that area... Then most of the people im going with are heading home and my dads bringing his van his bike and my trusty 675 over for a week of riding.. Most likely Switzerland and Italy, so should be a good adventure :)

    Cheers :) I'm planning to head to the Nurburgring 2017 - again probably take the van with the bike in the back, but I may organise some sort of week/weekend away if anybody would be up for it..

    You can do bike only days, but they're not cheap. It would be with instruction.
    I had a great time just doing open to the public laps. Just treat it like in between the best ever ride out on a road with traffic and a track day. Keep an eye on your mirrors for traffic faster than you, but they only overtake one side if you return to the other.
