Went there a while back before i started trials and saw some people on the walls and rocks there but builders where starting to build up the beach and change some of the stuff on the front and was not sure it was still all there but sounds like it is still good, thanks. Might have to get someone to show me some smaller stuff as those walls may be a bit high for me. Would still be good to get some people out.

Im going to be in lyme regis on saturday and was woundering if anyone would come and show me a couple of spots to ride for a few hours. I should be there before 12.

Its a bit out of the way and is level with the isle of Wight but Lepe beach has some great rocks on the front, a couple of large trees that have fallen and within about a five minute work some great concrete blocks and walls left from WWII only thing is that its quite hard to fit it all in a day. Aswell there is Hythe just down the road with some good walls and a cople more rocks. Iv got some pics of lepe if your interested.

If you see a large office building when you come out of the station the spar is at the bottom of it. If you come out on the other side then you sould see toys r us to the left, if so go left until you get to a bridge over the railwayline and from the top of bridge you should be able to see the spar to the left. Good to see a good number of people coming out.
-
Ok then making the ride for sunday. Meet at the Spar by the train station at 11:00.
-
Anyone up for riding tomorrow then? Weather looks fine.
-
I just found out that i may not be able to do thursday or friday so just woundering if anyone is up for riding Wednesday. Im still alright for the weekend. Can do any day aswell as the weekend.
-
Weekend sounds all good then, i can do either day but would prefer Saturday due to the ferries run till late but ill see which days more popular. Can still do a midweek ride aswell if anyones up for it.

Have you tried Metal Supermarket they have lots of different grades of aluminum to choose from. I have used them to get some steel and they seem good and just seen they have some stores in Canada so postage would be cheaper than importing or collecion if you live close to a store.

-
Hey im up for riding southampton any day next week and woundered if anyone will join me. if there is some interest then il post date and time later.

You still got those old grips on there, but looks great and when i had a go felt great

4 bolt brake boosters have spacers between the booster and the 4 bolt mounts so if you have not already got some you need the spacers and also some longer bolts which you can normaly get from anywhere that sell bosters.
-
come on guys its a great place to ride.
-
Yer all the good riding spots are all at lepe and either side of it there is nothing but sand and pebbles, does mean that its not that fare between spots to ride.

Me and Colin are going to be a riding Lepe Beach on Sunday. It is a local beach to me and has fantastic natty and street, the perfect place to practise for the up coming year of comps. It is about 30min from Southampton and about 1hr form Bournmouth or Portsmouth. There is also a cafe there to get lunch <img src="http://www.trials-forum.co.uk/forum/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/thumbsupanim.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="thumbsupanim.gif" /> . Theses are some pics of the rocks, concrete blocks and walls
