First, big respect to Steve Wilson (generallee) for organising the trip - it was fecking awesome. Nice one fella - a throughly nice chap.
I must admit, I didn't take as many pics as normal as it was such a pleasure just to sit and watch it all go off; Alex leech, Northern John, James Hitchcock, Jay and of course our own Billy-bmx and Billy Stupple providing some of the best riding I have seen at ROM and Harrow since BITD. Brilliant.
So, over to the pics.

Snake run was a laugh - was nuts to lead it off, get to the bottom, look up and see the tail of the train STILL riding in at the top! What a mad sight. Northern John was rad, Jay was just fookin mental, Billy Stupple is STILL rad and everyone else made me and my good lady feel very welcome. I'll be at the next one, more awake, more healed and more tricks!
