    Evening all, just a thread to show you some images from the Darlington
    Trials competition, and the Ridewell cycle awareness day last weekend.
    I'll try and annotate as best I can, and the videos from the day should
    be uploaded by the end of the week, info will appear in this thread...

    There are more than this of ridewell, including Simons very impressive
    high jumps and a very high drop to flat. I'll see if I can get those
    clips off the camera soonish and capture more frames...

    Credit for Darlington camerawork goes to me, Ridewell video shooting was
    entirely Leighs handiwork.
