Jimmy Ray

This could start like a alcoholics meeting introduction, i should save that till i know you all better eh.... anyway the Names Jimmy Ray im 33 from Portadown, a keen outdoors enthusiast, be it mountain biking, hiking, camping and just generally being outside as im stuck indoors most of the week.

Its been a while since i was seriously out and about the mountains or the mountain bike and finally getting back into it all again & reviving the kit. The eldest child is away doing his own thing and  its skipped the middle one and now the youngest who's 6 is keen as mustard to get up the mountains as much as possible.

always looking to learn something new, chat to like minded folks for ideas and just talk a lot generally.

Backpacking:  An extended form of hiking in which people carry double the amount of gear they need for half the distance they planned to go in twice the time it should take.
