  1. A few guys in my work run a Credit Union. My set amount of cash comes off my wages before I even get the chance to see it in my own RBS account. I guess that’s ideally what you're after? Ive been a member of the CU for a number of years and over that time Ive had a few wage rises. Every time I get that rise I change the amount which goes into the CU, saving the difference. The cash in my CU account is a lot more difficult to get to if I want it. I have to request it, get signatures, pick up the cheque and cash it in a bank in town...as opposed to just being able to do some digital banking and whip it out of an ATM or spank it on some tings online.
  2. Had my Trial Tech carbons since they came out. Done about 3/4 of my demo season on them so far, various comps, a fair bit of street riding and they're still solid. Wish they had a little more rise but they feel nice enough.
  3. Dude, you live near one of my favorite places to ride, ever - Achiltibuie. Never mind fannying about on pallets, get out and explore that amazing coast line you have and find some new "undiscovered" riding mecca's. Sorry about the quality but heres a video of a few of us riding up your way a few years back. http://youtu.be/2DW3YLT6TGw Let that be some inspiration for you. Oh, heres another from the same spot with better quality. http://vimeo.com/73841202
  4. f**king amazing. Love your style dude. Quite enjoyed the lack of music. Used to watch your videos back in the day and get myself excited for heading out on the bike. Location looks like it would be really fun to ride.
  5. As in 4 fingers on the lever? Death grip usually means you dont have your fingers on the lever at all
  6. Yup. A bush in the woods was always a good place to find a porno. I can remember picking up a sodden wet magazine and one of the pages ripping in half, meaning you could see the page behind. It was a black woman’s face having an orgasm on one page and a white guy’s body on the other and it lined up perfectly. Oh how I laughed. I bet the youth of today don’t have the pleasure of coming across magazines like we did (pun intended). Maybe ill buy some and chuck them in a few bushes just to keep the spirit alive.
  7. Take both of them together and you'll go straight to the cerebral palsy stage.
  8. Ive got some Tramadol and I could get you Diclofenac if you want that?
  9. This guy’s style was slightly better to watch in that he didn’t have many set up or correction hops/movements. He could work on his manuals though. The, "only being able to manual by leaning back and dragging the back brake", style looks bad imo. A real manual shouldn’t require a brake - only balance. As for the video - the Danny Mac tricks in an interesting location has been done to death.
  10. He's already done Fort William, (the outdoor capital of the Uk) which is what im guessing is spurring him onto going further afield? My advice would be, if you want to go anywhere is, to stay single.
  11. That hop to manual at 0.50. Sex wee.
  12. You know, reading the thread...
  13. Ben Travis is coming from Aberdeen and me, from Glasgow. Bonnie wee over night train ayeeee!!
  14. About 12 years of trials but been riding a bike for as long as I can remember.. first trials frame/bike was a Saracen MAD (with sus forks) brakeless nose manuals, bar spins and tail whips are so far beyond what I could ever do.
  15. Hippy, did you change the broken ferrule yet? The silver bit that goes round the outer cable and holds it in the lever? It was snapped. If you put a new one on it should make the brake feel more solid.
  16. Most searched words on Youtube? Like the Ozonys boys naming their videos "Ozonys Inspired Danny Mac 2009 pointless flat land tail whips cool"
  17. Its a 1.9 tdi VW passat. Ill ask about the oil then and see what he's got to say, as it was just after the service it all started to happen.
