Looks like the first chance to test my UL Tridey will be tomorrow at the Downs and can't wait! Is it still 'bugs at sunset' there? If so I'll pack a badminton racket! :lol:

Just wondering who is planning to be there on Friday, a couple of the "sarf London possee" are thinking of braving the Friday afternoon traffic.

The international man of mystery may be dropping in too. Absailing from above or appearing over the horizon of Dunstable downs on the end of a grappling hook natch.

Here's a multi-map. The actual spot is about 300m south of the circle.
