Hello Dave

Did someone say my name?

Since you incited several purchases by me (not hard to do I admit), I have to return the favour..

Go on, you know you want to!

C'mon Jimo you know it's the right thing to do
Maybe some more retro boys will join us, not on retro, on anything really. Lots have done and still do it.
Most of Fatty Owls team over the few years are from here on Retrobike, Brian, myself, Jason, Gil, Si, Andy, John, etc plus Kaiser and quite a few others have ridden or ride it still.
I was going to say good fun, but it's not really. It's like getting beaten up by nuns, you'll know you'll survive but it's still ever so nice when it stops

Dunno, those nuns can get pretty rough.

I've had more motorbike crashes than I have years and never broke a bone. The Puffer has given me 2 broken ribs so far.

Maybe the Puffer nuns are from the Inquisition. "No one expects the Inquisition..."

If the Spanish Inquisition had the Puffer as one of its weapons of torture it would have had many more confessions than the rack produced

On the Scotland Mtb routes Facebook group mainly.

Re:

Walked it last year but never cycled there - not sure how extensive the path network is?

Plenty nice tarmac nearby though :xmas-big-grin:

Nice trails but compact. Some loops but it’s pretty much winch and plummet kind of riding. Couple of main climbs with a network of trails down to a central finish.
Nice for a few hours but not much more.

Rob, I take it from this and recent Strava outings that the new women lives in Perth?
