How good can a weekend be??

We had a great turnout for our trip to Cwmcarn on Sunday.
The weather was warm in the morning and HOT in the afternoon.
The trails were all bone dry and fast.
After a lap of the mountain in the morning we stopped for a bite to eat.
(It'd be rude not to)
The visitor centre is being rebuilt so I didn't expect much from the make-do hut that served the food.
The food was, suprisingly, very good.
And it was the first time I have eaten a full english breakfast out of a polystyrene box!
After that, it was time to take another shot at riding the mountain.
I the second ride was a bit quicker than the morning session.
Must have something to do with the fry-up I guess.
We rode to the top of the XC route and then took the fire road up to the very summit where the Downhill course starts.
It was the first time any of us have ridden this DH run so we wondered how we'd get on with it.
I can describe the run as Thrilling, Fantastic, Excellent, Technical, Jumpy and .. er....FUN!
It was the perfect way to end the day and get us into Chamonix frame of mind.
It was a near perfect day.
Thanks to all the Carnival.
Roll on Cham.
