    ****Weekend Plans****

    Off for our 1st foray into indoor XC at Addington on Saturday, although he hasn't been ridden since Sunday, with work and weather against us, so not the best prep! Oh well it's worth a crack, it's only little. I just hope I enjoy it instead of being the usual bag of nerves *sigh*
