Title: Old Fools trip #2 - a few photos
Post by: SaMAlex on May 01, 2008, 06:32 PM

The second Old Fools trip was down at Rob Ridges “Bat Cave”. I forget exactly when the trip was but I think it was in early 2007. I do remember it was very cold! We all rode the park on the Saturday and slept over in park that night. On the Sunday we had a quick stop at some transitioned brick banks on the seafront (again, VERY cold) and then all headed off. It was more of a mini trip but was still loads of fun.
 
There doesn’t seem to be as much footage from this second Old Fools trip (I don’t think there was any Video at all). Some photos were Emailed around afterwards, most of which I saved, so here are some of them. Im not sure who took them (at least 2 different people) but Im sure they wont mind me posting them up.
 
If anyone has any more pics from that trip please add them.

Once the gas bottle is disconnected, you blow through one of the holes in the coping to clear out all the gas. With the addition of a ligher …. you get FIREBALL!
