You old timers allready know this but for the fresh ones out there the true path to enlightenment lies within the lair of the Maz.
Its a bit like going to visit Yoda........ ' Hrmmmmm Much to learn of the the living Buell have you young Richard.'
I can't recomend strongly enough to newbies like me how worthwhile a trip to the maz emporium is. There is every bit of buell bling imaginable and the amount of stuff you can learn is just invaluable.

Give it a go

If your interesred my other big passions are Downhill mountainbike racing (expert class) and climbing, especially ice climbing, this season has been awesome 7 new routes and 3 second ascents to gradeVII on the black ladders which is pretty much in my back garden. Google Mark Baggy Richards Climbing blog.

Done a lot of climbing there myself esp. when I shared a house with Nick Dixon. Done some new routes in the Pass myself some years ago. Black Ladders was awsome this season and a lot of waterfalls in the Berwyns got solid too.
I'm just leading a campaign to get my local crag (Llanymynech) debolted - not making me very popular
Do you know Crispin Waddy and Silvester and the Deinolen crew?
I'm based in Pant, a few miles South of Oswestry.

If it's sunny tomorrow, I might call in for a brew I'll call and let you know beforehand though

Nice to meet you today

Your mate with the B50 needs to go on the Robert Jones and Agnes Hunt Orthopaedic Hospital website and check out the Upper Limb Team for a second opinion - I just asked Mrs Adam

David Ford and Katrina Lewis are hand joint surgeons and Cormac Kelly is a shoulder specialist but also dabbles with hands. If his GP won't refer him for a second opinion, then one of these 3 surgeons will see him privately if he contacts them

Yeah good to meet you we will have to go for blast now my bike is rebuilt. Took it over to betws this afternoon and its going great the gear box feals like a hot knife thru butter as opposed to trying to kick your little brother into work in the morning.
Thanks for the info abour the orthopods, Tunny will appreciate it.
Cheers Rich
