OK, so from replies it looks like:

Steve ButtPlug
Matt Slowly
Phil Monkey
Chris Motobreaks
and me...

All I can promise is mud, sweat and tears (of laughter, hopefully).

See you at 11-ish on the 27th.

Meantime, Joyeaux Noel NobHeads

Cheers Russ. No recent breakages! But that might be because I'm only allowed a sippy cup these days:



and of course the padded walls and floor help too....

Yeah, good day. Really enjoyed the slop, the endless puddles, streams and woods. The Snifter Xmas Relay Race was a good laugh too. Aching like a bastard now though, having crashed and picked the bike back up eleven times....

Phil and Matt have lots of good pics and some video - to come.

At this point Daves Beta died (No 5) .......at possibly the worst place ever , we were hacking through dense woodland in the Okavango Delta !!!

Button was diying so lots of kicking took place , on my turn i noticed the kill switch had rolled round and was pressing on the clutch lever !!! once rolled back it fired up first time ............................always look for the obvious

It seemed to be all happening to Dave (No.6) ...................the clutch lever bar clamp snapped .......fixed with lots off zippies

Daves 7th

This stream looks nice to play in and its not to deep

I really like this section of the snifter ride, after days of rain. I think I'll name it Diarrhoea Drive....
