hey dude. Well this is wierd, I thought there wasn't any other riders in shropshire, and I come back to find loads! Im from shrewsbury area, bin riding around 6/7 years, and bin at uni in cornwall for the last three. Met Bigman in cornwall, now he rides at Harper Adams (telford) where hes at uni. Anyways, my msn is rathergoodpie@hotmail.com. Go for a ride soon for sure. (Y) Rob

i've allways worn gloves; the main reason being that my hands sweat like fook and then slip off the bars (which is bad). I tried going with no gloves and foam grips but that was no use as i didn't like the way they moved around (not slipping on the bar, just generally being too squidgy). Drawbacks with gloves... mine STINK after about 6 or 7 rides, so they are always in the wash. Also, they obviously have to be replaced when they wear out which costs. If i could not wear gloves, then i wouldn't.

I can't afford/be arsed to go to the gym, so i do two sets of 50 everyday, touching my nose on the floor. It makes a big difference. Along with crunch situps and the like. hmm might even be worth while if i didn't drink... lol

As a Graphic Design Graduate From Falmouth College of Arts I thought i'd give my opinion. Don't take offence of any criticism, it is there to be constructive. First of all, the look of the Portfolio website is exactly what employers will be looking for, no f**king about, just simple links (make sure you get the broken ones fixed though). Not sure about the Oriental writing, does it have a purpose, or is it there for looking pretty? (Y)" this is something I try and personally avoid (this is just my opinion) things should always be there for a purpose, form should always follow funtcion, otherwise they are pointless. The session clothing stuff is impressive, very contempary, i know plenty of people who would be happy to wear that sort of stuff. :blink: You are obviously a talented web designer, infect, i was curious as to who designed the Viz and Rimjam websites as soon as i saw them, as I really liked the look of them, and to be fair i'm a picky twat. So thats gotta be a good thing! Some of the best looking trials websites out there without a doubt. The MAD one is particularly nice, again, not cluttered clean lines and nice use of gradient. Very Mac-like. With any luck you can teach Koxx a thing or two about web design. :o" I'm impressed. :lol: Logo work is also nice, the X3 one is particularly nice. It would be good to see it on the site. Graphics artwork is ok, but i have to admit it looks terribly dated. That whole multi layered photoshop thing is really a thing of the past. very mid nineties "why not associates" But within its field its a good attempt. Basically, as an 18 year old designer you have a shite load under your belt. And should be incredibly chuffed with the work you have created. Without a doubt your strength is web design and if you carry on the way you are going you should have no trouble finding a job. I suggest setting yourself a really abstract experimental project for yourself, just to show that you can produce something other than corporate branding design. Just go mad with it! Hope this has helped you. All the best in the future, i'm sure you'll go far as a designer. Rob

pah, thats not nearly old skool enough! how many people remember these bad boys? Complete rubbish. didn't work in the slightest. But were available in anodised colours, which made them automatically ace :)" For those that cant see, the bar part attaches to the end of ur qr skewer under the screw cap, and points out the back away from the frame. The spring then clips to the end of the rear mech arm. I'm still baffeled as to what the desired effect was. This was the third bike that it got use on before it got killed.
