Aaaah Sudbury, thats well within stalking distance. Although having said that the price of petrol is pretty high at the moment, and I really can't be arsed to drive down that crappy bit of road (a134?) so I might not stalk you after all. Twisted Evil

Yup, I haven't been up there in a little while because it's about an hours drive each way and I'm lazy, but I do go to Norwich fairly regularly. They have a dendix main slope and a snowflex intermediate and nursery as well as a small snowflex funpark.

I have been meaning update my sig (see aforementioned note on me being lazy), we weren't getting any activity on the site so the admin shut it down. I don't think Norfolk has discovered the internet yet.

The loss of Norfolk Snowsports was indeed sad, but considering it was the admin, Noddy and me, it didn't seem to make much sense keeping it gorn (as they say up here!)

Anyways, I'm from Norfollk, but haven't been riding at Trowse mountain for aaaaaaages. Good slope tho Very Happy

Well, i must admit, I don't ride as much as I'd like to! Most of the time when I ride I tend to head off to Tam cos of the lovely people there Very Happy

Sometimes I go to MK, other times I head to Cas if I'm heading north anyway

Hey I'm about 10 miles the other side of Colchester, so not too far from Sudbury as long as the tractors dont get in the way. Dont ride at Ipswich though I would be prepared to give it another go(the last time left after 10mins).

Mainly riding up at MK at the mo. However went up to the Farmers Jam couple of weeks back just to watch and was very impressed with everything there, well at least compared to my other local slope- Brentwood. So I may give Norwich a go, plus its a good place to go for a drink after.

I was thinking of heading up to norwich myself, as i wasnt that impressed with ipswich either, hopefully il get up to MK somtime soon, although i havnt even stepped onto my board for 2 years i may well do the day course up there again as ive got a couple of mates who want to give it a try also..

I've got stuff on for the next month (including doing my BASI 1 up at MK) but If you fancy giving Norwich a go after that pm me maybe we can sort something out/split the petrol etc.

If you do book a course/go up to MK let me know as i'm up there every other weekend or so to meet a mate and get some much needed practice in for my course.

Maybe a good idea to go to a fridge and clear some of the rust away before hitting the dryslopes anyway as they tend to hurt when you fall. Well they do me but i'm getting older......... Laughing
