Jake. Posted December 19, 2012 Report Share Posted December 19, 2012 (edited) Is it at Barrow? Doubt I'd be good enough but I'll try pop along Edit: Found it "This play day will take place at Warm(ish) Indoors venue at the UK’s prime Trials venue, Barrow Farm Essex". You mentioned you want a cv, I heard that some people have riding cvs, what sort of stuff do you want to see/know?

Joe Papasnap Maher Posted December 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2012 You mentioned you want a cv, I heard that some people have riding cvs, what sort of stuff do you want to see/know? well in a roundabout way your kind of applying for a job? so some background information about yourself would be handy.. Do you work/school..available weekends/weekdays? Good with talking to people? represent a company? That kind of thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SamKidney Posted December 20, 2012 Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 Im down for this. Be cool if something came of it, even if it is highly unlikely Be good to ride down at the farm for the first time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Papasnap Maher Posted December 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 Be good to ride down at the farm for the first time! For the bazillionth time..barrowfarm/radical bikes is not open at this time of year due to the wet weather.. The tryouts will be held at the INDOOR venue across the road.. The obstacles to be ridden are the Mad Demo Rig ,Radical Bikes Demo Rig, and an assortment of other objects which are currently in the barn for riding!!

I misread it as the venue was part OF radical bikes. It never said the horse riding school was on separate property, hence my misunderstanding. Calm it. Where is it being held?? This play day will take place in a warm(ish) Indoors venue at the UK’s prime Trials venue, Barrow Farm Essex. ( Not in the radical bikes field ) You can see the reasoning for my misunderstanding, which technically could be seen as correct. I said "The Farm". You mentioned Barrow Farm. I used its name, as did you. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Manning Posted December 21, 2012 Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 Wet or not, the opportunity to ride indoors on equipment you may not have ridden on before with people you may or may not have ridden with before is a reason good enough to come along. If you are umming and arring about coming because you don't think you are good enough, then think of it like this: Indoor riding, Different equipment, Different people, Potentially learn and improve techniques/skills, Chance of winning prizes. You may surprise yourself and actually do better than you think and have the opportunity to ride for MAD. Bottom line is that your guaranteed to have a fun days riding. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Manning Posted December 22, 2012 Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 Not only do you have a chance of winning prizes, every person who turns up will receive a t-shirt and hat from Dare2B. If you intend on coming, please can you confirm on the M.A.D Facebook Page that you will be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grantham Posted December 22, 2012 Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 Filling in my CV now!!! Cant miss the chance for a free t-shirt and hat!!! Sounds like it will be a fun day. I guess for CVs its not all about riding, what are you like as a person, the team is away for long periods sometimes so we spend alot of time hanging out away from riding to, so that is equally important.
