Epsom
I flew down early from Glasgow (much sad I had to leave) and milled about Heathrow, looking at hot babes walking out of the International terminal while waiting for Tom, Carley and Mark. They had a direct flight from Shittsburgh, which was pretty nice. After picking up the rental car and driving to Mod’s, we decided to get a jet-lag session in at Epson. Mark said he hasn’t been there in about 15 years, so we headed out. Nice little sesh on day one. Tom first lapped it on his freshly built bike. Big thanks to Jon Robinson and the locals. Word was they re-did the mainline over the Winter and this was the first time it was running. Nothing like a little sesh straight away.

Sheet Trails
Ahhhh yes, Sheet Trails, even after a good rain this place is usually running, which happened this time—we had a spicy rain all night, but after a quick dial in we were riding. Aside from The Surrey Hills Cafe being closed yet again when we were in town, we were off to a good start. I rode a lot and managed to blast through giant puddle at the end of the main line, so not too many riding photos to share. As always, thanks to Josh (Piiieee) and the locals for a splendid time. As you’ll notice, usually the less riding photos means I’ve been riding a bit more—which is a good thing.
