I was thinking about Tollymore tomorrow which is quite good if you have not been before. Myself, Hayley and Dylan were down at Castleward today. There is about 20 fallen trees accross the paths.
My friend was in |Castlewellan today, he said trails were quite dangerous with the snow on them.
I think Tollymore would be wise choice tomorrow?
I believe Niall is heading over to Tollymore forest in the afternoon. Anyone else up for Tollymore tomorrow?

The Happy Mamils aka Ollie,Shane and myself took part in the Dromara Trail Quest today.It started at Daft Eddies and was a very enjoyable day.Three and a half hours of mountain biking through the wet ,muck,gutters,some snow ice and a cutting east wind great conditions with a couple of punctures throwen in .Once we got started and the sun came out we soon warmed up after one wrong turn up a very steep hill and going an extra half mile by the first clue, then myself and Ollie punctured after a very muck laneway covered in thorns , of course like everything else his thorn was bigger than mine.Our new team mate Shane on his spotless and clean bike was also enjoying the challange and the banter and crack. His bike was not long losing its shine as we made our way down laneways and across leek fields looking for clues. We all made it back to base safe and sound ,covered in mud and gutters , where we enjoyed soup ,which was very welcome,some of our team even had rehydration drinks.It was a very enjoyable day and the weather was not to bad, sure what else would you do on a cold Sunday.

Myself Colum and Barney couldnt handle pacing around the kitchen anymore and headed to Castleward around 12 oclock just as a blink of sun was trying to pop out to moderate the shivers.... with Robins warning about the number of felled trees on our minds...and he certainly wasn't wrong.There must have been 20 down so whilst it was great to get out I dont think there's much point in going there on tuesday night. Arrived down to the farmyard to grab a coffee but it was closed however we must have looked so miserable ( Turley looks like that when money is to be spent!)..she took pity on us and went to her kitchen and made us a coffee and chocolate biscuits for free...it must have his face. Good run out in good company.
