Tongue

I  am happily rejoining the muddy side,, havent toutched dirt since 05..

But had to . . last week took all the skin off my knee trying to avoid a

crazeee motorist,, I had to choose .. scratch or crack my carbon team road bike , or put down my knee.... I chose to sacrifice the knee... now painfully skinless, but at least I heal... my bike would not.. and came off without a mark.....

Today i again tore the plasters off, but because i was in the bush, and

the old hesitation = devistation.. came true...

I enjoyed the fall, and it was great to be back in the muddy stuff...

WTH some how I thought it would be a RaleighTongue

Raleigh was, out of my budget, and those within my budget

are... more like supermarket bikes .. and those are not up to supporting my larger frame smashing round the bundus

So I chose the best value, bike that I could still negotiate a really great deal on.....I did research on the reviews..

I checked most budget dual sus xc starter bikes... Yukon FX won hands down and the riders in the UK were speachless at the performance of this budget bike.. It got rave reviews...

Raleigh still my chosen road brand...
