Today was a great day:). First real taste of desert riding! I rode a Mongoose with a shorter stem than my stumpjumper and I preferred it as it gave more cornering control. It actually a cool bike that is loads of fun. I might do a seperate write up on it.
All Packed and ready to go..

As some of you are probably aware I had a Gary Fisher Hifi Deluxe (07) on order from Evans. However there was a problem with the forks, don't ask me how they manage to damage a set of fork when transporting it from one store to the warehouse!
Anyway I just went into Evans to try and sort it all out and ended up walking out of there with a Trek Top Fuel 8 (07) for the misely sum of £1000 instead of £1600rrp

Over the last 7 years one of the key ingredients to surviving the physical endurance of the weekend riding frenzy that forces me to steal most daylight hours on a saddle (well once I have surfaced that is;).....is the daily commute on my bike to work.

I wrote to the Newhall guys again asking what they were planning on using the pland for as they had refused the request to turn it into a bike park..
Their response below gives me more hope in the sense that I now have a new contact the "Residents Association" to negotiate with. I will see if people who actually live on the estate can give me a better introduction into the residency association as it is formed
