new and in mansfield
« on: July 24, 2009, 01:02:20 PM »
hello,
first post on this forum!
I've been looking into bocking and round this forum for a while and I've taken the plunge and got myself some s-rex. read some great advise about the basics and setting them up, so thanks you've got me started! been out 4 times now and getting the hang of em walking, slow running and very basic jumping and some spectacular wipe-outs! I went running round the trails at a near by wood and couldn't stop when going down hill. I did stop in the end by using my for arms and elbows as brakebads on the floor! It would be great to meet up and learn some more, noticed a bock friendly gym in mansfield woodhouse so anyone who wants to meet up let me know!

I'm going to be at Loughborough Uni in september and I think Chocl8 is going to be at Nottingham uni, So i'm sure we could have a few notttingham meets if your up for that.
