These trails are highly regarded and they were advised not to use their own bikes, but to hire good ones from the site. So they hired three German Cube bikes – bikes were never like this when I was a kid, these ones had 27 gears, suspension and hydraulic disc brakes
An early start (surprise surprise) to get there for first thing
Tres hombres
I might as well make myself comfortable for the day
They took about 2 hours to do the first ‘intermediate level’ trail....
....then another two hours for one of the advanced trails....
....one dropped out leaving only two to do the second advanced trail....
Pit-stop – Bongo being put to good use
¡Three Amigos!
Bongo – ideal support vehicle for this type of thing!!
Jr then did the intermediate trail on his own for a second time – in 30 minutes
Only six crashes to report (only two of them requiring medical attention
) and no damaged bikes. We then made our way home via one of the best chippies in the land, Arnside Chip Shop for some stunning fish & chips. All in all, a great day out!! 
, cant call him Jr any more
