Oxford Falls downhill companion?
Thought id give Oxford falls downhill a go the other afternoon and, although very rusty and wary over most of the coarse, thoroughly enjoyed it. Only problem being the lack of lift up again ,which basically meant i only managed two runs before tiring!
So just mondering if anybody would be intersted in meeting once a week, preferably on an afternoon (im a tradie so can be there for 4ish) for some runs and we can use my ute with atleast three bike potential for an uplift. As i say i am no sam hill by any means, but enjoyed it all the same.
Matt.

I'd be keen to come out regularly. But probably couldn't make it every weekend due to some other commitments.
Thanks for the reply, Yes same as me for weekends, but best for me would be to meet in the week after work. i can be there for just after four so still fit in some runs.which will improve as the evenings get lighter. And the place was pretty much empty.
I saw some other guys doing car uplift with two of them , they were just driving up in one car to collect the other persons car after each run. Definatley quicker than riding up!
Let me know when you can make it, would still be on for a weekend if it suits you better. Just be nice to go with somebody else..... none of my friends seem interested!
