Dalbeattie Slab

This slab of granite has a bit of a reputation in the UK. It's about 45 metres long, looks to be roughly 45 degrees pitch and as you can see is covered in pine needles. The hardest part of riding this feature is getting going. Gee had a couple of false starts, shouted at himself for being afraid and then went. Once the front wheel is over the edge, you are committed, no going back, no escape.At the bottom, the heart is pounding and, adrenaline is flowiing, and it's huge grins for miles afterwards.
