New member saying hello

Hi everybody,
Just thought I'd introduce myself - I'm Ben from Saltburn, North Yorkshire. I'm the proud owner of a 2008 Meta 5.5.2, although I had to change the wheels as I thought the standard hubs really let the bike down.
My local stomping ground is Guisborough Woods / Moors - anybody local wanna go ride? Gimme a shout! Anybody not local whose visiting the area, bring ur bike, gimme a shout!!!
Guisborough really is the UK's MTB Mecca!!
Laterz all, happy trails.

Welcome dude. Im not local but i have to argue and say that The scottish borders (inners and peebles) has taken the name of the UK's biking mecca
lol. If you are ever up this way and want a Dher/ freerideer to show you around gimme a shout.

Welcome. Guisborough is one of the places i'd like to visit. I hail from Lancashire, i.e Gisburn and Lee Quarry being my local trails aswell as the ones around my house.

my brother lives in Skelton, so I know the area quite well
Riden Guisborough a few times (in fact was the Meta's first ever ride) and sorry but wasnt too impressed. Signs where completely non existant, and I ended up getting totally lost, was muddy as hell too
Definately one of those places you need a local to show you round as Im sure there is loads of potential riding round there

Off topic... I was born nearby in Baysdale!
Exactly underneath the pin on the map:
