Brian Bleech Posted January 13, 2005 Report Share Posted January 13, 2005 good morning rightio got my new dvd player installed tonight and was pissing about with ripping software so decided to rip and convert to mpeg the little video that was at the end of the the free halfords - 'basically bikes' it is hosted on trials-shack (i hope Si doesn't mind, what with it being a ripped dvd) most of the riding is pretty good (but you can tell some of it is just them practising) and some sick spins from ashton! its 44 mb, just over 4 mins long! enjoy Ashton And Hawyes night night mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skandy32 Posted January 13, 2005 Report Share Posted January 13, 2005 oh my god! how can he spin soo much?? and so often!! that has inspired me to try and learn how to spin! (Y) loving that stoppy drop around the circular wall! that was sweet! cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Endohopper Posted January 13, 2005 Report Share Posted January 13, 2005 Damn,Ashton really is so bleeding talented,and this is a really relaxed little vid.Nearly broke his back and he still rides unbelievably.Shame really for Matin Hawyes,who is in his own right a fine rider,but being associated with Ashton kinda makes it hard for him to shine.I was in the Animal clothing shop in Guildford recently,and they have a framed riding shirt signed by Sir Martyn of Ashton.I asked them if it's for sale ,but they said no so I took photos instead. :"> The guy's a legend.

Matt_Tupman Posted January 13, 2005 Report Share Posted January 13, 2005 There style has changed so much :D they seem to be doing loads more street moves. I really like the giants :"> I want one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tartridge Posted January 13, 2005 Report Share Posted January 13, 2005 I really like the giants :"> I want one ← Only cos theyre blue :D Sweet vid that, cheers Mike. Ashton has a cool style, i loved that 270 to backwheel to 360 off that Ashton did, as well as the sidehoppy thing onto the wide rail (under the bridge) :(.

Fishwog Posted January 13, 2005 Report Share Posted January 13, 2005 Im not overly fussed about Hawyes' riding personally... ← I don't think there are enough video's of him about for him to show his potential......Shame really, because it looks like he is really good, but there are just no video's of him,and one's that he are in (like this one) have a minut amount of him in it! :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UrbanLegend Posted January 13, 2005 Report Share Posted January 13, 2005 Thoroughly enjoyed that vid, havn't seen one like it in a long time :D You can tell they have been riding for such a long time, they are both so smooth and controlled, even on tiny thin walls and rails. Muchos bike control. Great vid (Y) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biketrialler Posted January 13, 2005 Report Share Posted January 13, 2005 (Y) Thanks a bundle for that dood Its just the kind of riding I like... And need to watch to get back into riding.

burto Posted January 13, 2005 Report Share Posted January 13, 2005 theres two reasons why i started trials 1-martyn Ashton 2-martin hawyes they are absolute ledgends of the sport. my fave vid is chain spotting this is the first vid i saw with any sort of trials riding and thought it was awsome and i still cant get that song out of my head were they are on the beach near the start i think its i am milk by garbage,anyway cheers for putting this up mike your a ledgend in your own right (Y) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
