    Thanks for being understanding, we'll hook up soon!

    I've just been warned off doing any sport, due to some antibiotics I'm on (ciprofloxacin), so I won't be able to make Saturday. I'm very disappointed, but side effects can be a snapped tendon! I'll give you a shout when I'm off them. Really appreciate your efforts to meet up.

    Ok great, is 10am too early? We could do a couple of hours?

    Oh cool, yeah quite possibly. I need to be away by mid-day though. Where are you thinking?

    Nice replies, some food for thought! Yeah I reckon the previous owner had 40-50 psi in there, real rock hard. Gave the bike a quick service and lube last night, it seems good. I dont like the bear cage pedals though, they feel small under my feet so fitting some v8 copies.

    Yeah rode street trials back in about 98' to 00'. Thought I was pretty good but nothing compared to what I see you lot doing. Used to jump gaps, ride steps and stuff. Hop over big obstacles. Eddie Tongue was just becoming big on pashleys, and of course martin and martyn were rocking the indoor arenas after their success with dirty tricks and cunning stunts.

    Well I've been out for the first time tonight on it, you have to proper get your ass back to manual the thing! Feels real odd when I've only ridden 26". Going to try to hop on it tomorrow. The gears feel so light, like being in 2nd or 3rd on a mtb.

    Cool, well if you're happy riding with an old guy let me know, I can be available Saturday's, some Sunday afternoons and Monday/ Friday evenings.

    You guys still riding? I'm not far from lynham, or Swindon?

    What tyre pressures do you run on 20" wheels?

    Hello, i'm 34 and just picked up a trials bike. The last bike I had was a DMR trailstar with 26" mavic 521's and magura hs33's. That was in 2000 when we all had seats! The bike I've bought is a 2013 onza bird, it has 20" wheels and no saddle, surprisingly it has v brakes. Any upgrades I should look out for? What's the best thing to practice early days? Are skate parks any good for practice? I'm in Wiltshire, would be fun to meet up.
