Default So nice

I dont't know why I'm putting this up, but I just wanted to say that JB is so friendly. I was a little nervous about going down for the first time a couple of weeks back, as I thought it would be full of pro's, and us little rookies would get in the way. But most people I have spoken to have been very friendly and helpful, and they didn't laugh when I continually fell of the cable, and are more than happy to give tips etc.

It's nice to find a hobbie/sport where people are not 'clicky'

The bug has bitten now, and we're down twice a week.

You are so lucky that you live so close to a cable. I'm quitelucky that I live close to a club but riding on a boat all the time can get a bit boring sometimes :? Ity would be cool to be ableto go on a cable about the same amount as the boat. Then you'd never get bored

Yep, agreeing with you there Robin. I ride at Thorpe and they are always nice there. I mean, there are a few buddy groups, but most people you can just chat to. Are you using the boat or the cable?

Love and peace.

I'm on the cable at the moment, but will be planning a tow behind the boat soon. I'm trying to get down for about 3 hours a week at the moment. Just invested in my board, so I've just got to continue finding the money to fund this spawning addiction ;o)
