didn't ......... or don't just for info of you don't powerful painkiller producing euphoria with a strong sense of dissociation ???also called the "date rape" drug ( or was that rohypnol) because it makes you forget all the pain and what caused it I know what he meant though in that JJ looked soooooo chilled and unbothered when you started the bike wish the pone I was riding when I was 12 had had that same chill factor when a bike without a silencer passed us on the road .......he reared so high I fell of backward .....and my back just missed a huge boulder on the verge . Now I would have loved ketmine that day

Ew. Bikes ARE scary, though--I dread passing horses on mine. I think I've only ever ridden past one horse that didn't freak.....mainly because its rider was a fellow biker and used to turn up on the bike with food. However, it did flip at a parked trailer on the other side of the road and nearly flattened me, so you can't win really JJ has always been good with twins and big inline fours, but singles really worry him. It's a totally different engine sound. The last time we met one it totally rattled him and he went straight up.......poor kid on the trail bike was petrified and actually stalled it I actually felt more sorry for him than the horse I think I could probably do with some ketmine though....

i think the results are due to be announced next tuesday on the 19th i am hoping that liz had more entries than the ones that are on here,otherwise she would have gone to a lot of effort for very little effort put back in.i would have thought after all the help and advice liz has given to people on the dg that more would have supported her in this!!?? what a shame eh?

It is a shame shelley, although i think our inclement weather has had alot to do with it.

I dunno, a combination of rotten weather and the impossibility of uploading easily has made it kind of hard, really. There have been a fair few entries though, and they have been fun to watch

great big congratulations jamie lee and bobby on you first place ;D ;D ;D Bobby obviously has great trust in you jamie lee ..... that little snorty at the streamers first time was the only give away of him having a wee think about it. He is a darling and I think would be a pleasure to take out and about You know Laura, jamie-lee will appreciate this so much, just to know that someone else can see how far she has come wih him in such a short space of time. So for those that dont know. Bobby is blind in one eye, and we have only owned him for 6 months, During that time, their relationship has gone from strength to strength, he will do anything for her now, but i remember not so long ago, posting about him rearing whilst out hacking, napping really badly and showing a car his belly button. , alot of people would of got off and given up and lord knows what would of happend to him, but jamie-lee, being made of stubborn stuff, lol refused to be beaten by him, she could see he had a kind heart but was just scared, so for the last 6 months we have worked on building his self confidence on the ground and ridden too, she now hacks all over the place, even past horse eating cows , she canters him out too and also is practising so she can do her first prelim on him, for a green horse that had only ever walked about the local lanes, this is major progress for him..he is close to being able to labelled 1st horse! anyway i just wanted to say how proud i am of my daughter and her luffly bobby, they make a cracking team.. ;D ;D
