The quick way, I'll show you bud, got back in 1h 55 the last time :shock: I like the twisty's before you get into it wish I still had my bikes...

Yes the "talent" will be having a look over, I've laid a trail of roundtree's randoms out for him! He's busy doing lots of work for the event the top bloke that he is. I've had a few more nibbles of interest and yes defo staying over and doing both days. The lads want to come but not sure if they are yet, havent got the big tent back from repair yet.

This is defo a spot I fancy trying sick of the lack of winds at the minute, unfortunately working the Sunday and Monday. Next time you head over give me a shout. Good luck guys hope the rain stops and wind blows.

:D Well worth the trip mate. Stayed in a cheap B&B in Barrow, actually no, it was just a B. :lol: Bit of a dump but cheap enough. Earnse Bay is a great spot. At low tide its shallow and fairly flat. Can get some decent waves n all at higher tide i think?
