I rode a lot on my Auties estate to behind the Ben Johnson at Marus Bridge with Dylan, Lee and a few lads on there we used to go the three sisters over the backs, tell you what though that King Kong used to scare me as a lad and those whoops bit hard when you Cased them .... I've still got the dents in my shins to prove that.
The first Race I did there was on my Pro Star with Yellow Skyways off a mates Tuff burner, weighted a ton but I won both Moto's don't think I took a breath all the way round ..... Saw stars passing over the finishing line. :idiot2:

Above is a reply from Dave Arnold on Facebook. Were was the pub? It looks like the poacher in Winstanley?
I remember the tips near Pemberton train station very well and watching Dylan Claton jump over a massive gap there.
BADDH:
Yes Paul it was the Poacher, right next to Winky woods that's still there today with loads of jumps, the kids call one the Coffin, I thought it was a smallish lump on the ground. :LolLolLolLol:
