About Me

I have come into 2012 with a strong desire to be more healthy and reduce my weight to something more acceptable for a man of my age and height. On the 1st of Jan 2012 at the age of 45 and height of 6ft 2in, I weighed in at 18st 2lbs (that's 256 lbs or 116kg). I have a pretty large frame and have always been able to carry a bit of excess baggage but I think its time to do something about it for my health and energy levels more than anything else. The experts suggest that for a man of my height and age I should be about 13.5 st but I have set myself a target of 15 st (210lbs or 95kg) - thats a planned loss of around 3 st (46lbs or 20kg) This BLOG is a record of my attempt to achieve this goal and I have made it public to help keep me motivated and on track. If you have any comments, thoughts or ideas and suggestions please feel free to leave me a message..

Martley Trial - This weekend

Last night I went out on Dad's Scorpa and tried the sections that we will be using this weekend. Overall they are good and it looks like it will be a good trial as long as the weather stays fine.

If we get more than just a few showers we may have to ease off some of the routes and use some of the back up sections because the stream exits could get a bit tricky and we dont want to spoil the trial with riders stuck in the stream, but at the moment it all looks good for a great little trial!

Here is a short video of section 10. This will be the first time we have used this as it took some work with the chainsaw to clear the banks.

As you can see, the stream is nice and low so we will be able to use parts of the land that we have never used before which is always good as land seems to be over used in most areas.
