i don't think hoggy is the best place for first ever ride! i'm trying to find somewhere that is flat and smooth for more than 10feet so that i can set cranks properly!

Whoever is going to organise please remember that we have the AGM starting at 2pm so racing needs to be completed in good time for that....

hope you all, have a good time!
