Hey all,

Im Matt, currently live in somewhat sunny Bridlngton, on the Yorkshire Coast. I ride a 08 Specialized SX trail I



Been riding a few months now, after not riding from about 7 years, although i had one of those cheap full sus bikes. Generally ride around trails in Scarborough, Bridlington, and the Yorkshire Wolds. However, i've been to hamsterley forest a few times, but i'm wanting to get more into biking and traveling around bit.
Cheers,

Matt.

Welcome to the Forum Matt, and just what we like too, pictures.

Why not create your own Members Gallery on the site, or look in and upload to our routes section.

Thanks for the welcome, I'll have a look at the gallery bit, and i got a few routes from my area too. Guess i should start taking more photos with the phone or something. From what i read your monthly rides look fun, I might have to attend the next one!

The next one's just an easy run out, Matt, to get people out and chatting and organising rides, talking about their bikes, etc., etc., however your more than welcome to turn up if you want.

Hopefully, we've got some cracking routes over the Moors for next year, and other members are always able to post up rides in their area. Wink

Ello Matt,
Well Bridlington what can I say about that.. Opened the Macdonald`s there 20 yrs ago nearly (them where the days).
Plus on the second day there I met the future wife there in the Pub across the road.
20 years later still together but I brought her up too boro 15 yrs ago.
4\5 years was enough of brid for me.. heh

Welcome too the forum, get posting pics , rides and anything else MTB related..

CLATChY: interesting, small world! I doubt Brid has changed much either! 23yrs of Brid and i don't mind it too much, perhaps its due to spending most of the week at Uni in Hull!!

There's nothing wrong with Bridlington.

I refuse not to go there at least once a year.

There's the trip on the Pirate Ship around the harbour, or a trip on the powerboat. There's excellent fish and chips from a shop just 3 or 4 doors up from Macdonalds.
There's some superb amusements on the seafront, the one that does the "Horse Racing" being the best, plus a "London Eye" type wheel on the harbourside. Wink

I love Brid Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy
