I have been going to Thetford with my mum for a long time with our bikes and I have learnt lots of skills there. Today was extra special as I had a new bike to try out...

Cool camera if you planning to record some of your rides. The camera is self-contained what basically means no cables, no MM player in a backpack (Like Archos).

Supports up to 2GB SD memory. Records audio and video (640x480x30fpp)

So 3 months back the docs told me that the break in my arm (the radius) was bad. After they Xray'd they told me that the break was so bad that I would lose 40% of wrist movement and that I would never be able to mtb ride again as I would have no thrust movement to lift my front wheel. They shoved in a big nasty Titanium plate and I left determined to challenge this.

Last night I went for a gentle ride through the filed of Harlow. Nothing
