Descending Snowdon 28-12
Guys
If you were the team descending Snowdon yesterday via the Llanberis path on your Uni's let me know as I have the photos. We spoke near to the shelter on the summit ridge Steve -- ------- We don't stop playing because we get old We get old because we stop playing |

Descending Snowdon 28-12
Hahaha, thats genius, yeah that was Me, Dave (Kington99), Alex Smout and Rupert Millard, with Phil Marshall and Leigh walking the same route we took. I'm SOOO achey today though, even 2 days later! I'm now of the opinion that my 26" LM makes the best muni experience, even if the weight of it strapped to my backpack meant my shoulders are still sore today. I've got some video, and there are pictures on Leigh's and Phil's cameras, and i'll get them asap and post them. An excellent trip, easily the best conditions I've ever seen on snowdon, and I'm planning on taking an experienced group of riders up the same route near easter, more details when I've located campsites and decided on a minimum skill/equipment level.

Thanks Steve, I was one of the team, any photos would be greatly appreciated, probably best to send them to Loosemoose as he usually complies the media from a ride. -- kington99 Dave - what a thoroughly post-modern subversion of the cycling genre - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ kington99's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/9417 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/45676 |

Descending Snowdon 28-12
I thought this might amuse someone LOOK WHAT I DID TO MY DAMN FOOT! Believe it or not this was the result of a planned stationary dismount on level ground near the summit. This photo is three days later, and yes of course i still rode the rest of the way down. Off to physio tomorrow, oh well... +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ |Filename: Photo-0081(small).JPG | |Download: http://www.unicyclist.com/attachment/11379 | +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ -- kington99 Dave - what a thoroughly post-modern subversion of the cycling genre - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ kington99's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/9417 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/45676 |

Guys
You can find the photos at http://www.walkingoutdoors.co.uk/Steve/Snowdon2005/ I didn't get the video as the camera was in photo mode and not video mode unfortunately of one of the team falling off and sliding on the ice It was great to see such an event on the hillside. Normally it's only mountains bikers and walkers on Snowdon. I bought a Uni in 2004 and mastered the art of falling off after about 12 feet. Since then its been in the shed gathering dust. I promised myself I'd learn how to use it properly so there's another new years resolution broke All the best Steve "swarbrim" wrote in message news:2cc896b6a6729dbfba10e69584acaf3d.20xo81@NoEma il.Message.Poster.at.Unicyclist.com... kington99 wrote: I thought this might amuse someone LOOK WHAT I DID TO MY DAMN FOOT!

Cheers for those Steve, now I've seen the location of the photos I know who you are. I love the last photo of Rupert on the floor, it took a short while for me to figure out what was actually going on in that photo. I deffinitely suggest you dig that old uni out of your shed, you could join us on next winter's trip with some moderate practice, once you crack the basics it's really not all that hard. -- kington99 Dave - what a thoroughly post-modern subversion of the cycling genre - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ kington99's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/9417 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/45676 |

enter random non-unicyclist I've got a couple of snaps too - we were the walkers with the blue/yellow TeamNutter LandRover. I'll upload them to the web if you're interested (but I'm not on my PC at the moment) -- TeamNutter ------------------------------------------------------------------------ TeamNutter's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/11503 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/45676 |
