  1. Hi everyone, The UK unicycle trials championships will be held over the late May bank holiday at Radical Bikes in Essex! Everyone is welcome and we're trying to encourage new riders along. We'll have beginner riding workshops as well as some trials workshops for those who can already ride. Full details and tickets are available on the STFU London website: http://www.stfulondon.co.uk/uk-unicycle-trials-championships-2019/ See you there
  2. Apologies for the late notice, but it's only just occurred to me that some of you bike trials riders might be interested in this. We're holding the UK Unicycle Trials Championships over the late May bank holiday weekend. It'll be at Radical Bikes and everyone is welcome. You don't even need to be able to ride a unicycle to attend. We'll have plenty of learner unicycles for you to have a go on. We'll also have the current trials world champion, Mark Fabian, giving workshops. For full details and to buy tickets, see our website: http://www.stfulondon.co.uk/stfu-presents-uk-trials-championships/
  3. Wasn't sure where to put this, so I'll leave it here. A snap I got from the Ozonys ride in London a couple of weeks ago.
  4. Cheers guys, glad you enjoyed it. I left Voodoo Unicycles last week after falling out with Jason. Would be super shit if this video blows up just afterwards
  5. Hi guys, I know some of you enjoy our videos so I thought I'd post this one. We roadtripped around the Scottish highlands to see what there was to ride. We took a professional cameraman with us and this is what he came up with! I actually shot the stuff of Mike riding the bridge at the end. Genuinely never been that scared in my life. I was shaking from the adrenaline rush just watching him do it. Enjoy! Edd
  6. My favourite part was when he told George he loved him and asked where he lived :kiss: Oh, and when he bitchslapped the other hobo that was nicking his stuff when his back was turned. Haha.
  7. Rode Cov yesterday. Met the King of Morocco.
  8. Haha, awesome. Good effort. But why did you come to Dunstable to ride?
  9. Haha, cheers guys. Im too street to film natural vids. My snapback would get dirty from fallin gin the mud. Gotta admit, I do like panning to the floor sometimes and film burn can work sometimes. Was more to poke fun than anything else.
  10. Hey guys, We made this video on how to be street. It doesn't just apply to unicycles, you can take all of these tips to any extreme sport and film a top street video. Enjoy! http://youtu.be/Qkx1mnn5CUM Edd
  11. I did an apprenticship in engineering and got my HNC. Had a fiance and shared a flat with her. Had a deskjob in a design office for 6 years. Everything went tits up with the girl and the job got mundane and I started to hate being stuck in the rat race. It was so dull and everyday I would daydream about just being outside and riding. One day I realised that I could be stuck in a job like that forever and look back on my life with regret, so I handed in my notice. Was the scariest thing I've ever done but definitely the best decision I've ever made. Im now doing a media course, I've always wanted to make sick riding videos and I'm setting up Voodoo Unicycles to earn me money to live on. The work is unreliable and jobs are few and far between at the moment. Im living in a cabin at the bottom of my parents garden and I can barely afford fuel to go riding but I am really happy. I actually enjoy living on a shoestring budget. When you can't afford to buy anything it really makes you appreciate the value of money. Im planning on building up Voodoo, starting after schools clubs teaching kids how to ride, more demos and hopefully get some international work to allow me to travel. I just don't want to settle for a 'normal' life. Almost went down that path and it just doesn't appeal to me.
  12. Went out and shot mine last night but it was dark and windy and I nailed myself soooooooo hard before I'd even got the camera out. Might refilm it.
  13. I don't have a bike but I have a unicycle and I've been after a bike for a while. Can I enter on my unicycle? Obviously I'll follow all the other rules, I'd just be on one wheel.

    Movember

    Here's my effort so far.
  15. Cheers guys! I don't want to pay much more than a couple of hundred notes if I can get away with it. Been looking at second hand D3100's and it looks like I should be able to pick one up for around that Did a photography unit as my first assignment of the year. Heres a few pictures I took for it. These are the final images I submitted. The theme for the project was Fairy Tales. We had to take a story and adapt it. I put a modern spin on Cinderella. Im not happy with most of them, they looked so much better in my head. meh.
  16. I've started a media course and Im really getting into photography. I've been using the Canon 550D and 600D's at college but would like to get my own DSLR. I've been looking at the Canon's but they are out of my budget. Are there any DSLR's that are comparable spec but cheaper? Or should I stop being so tight and get a loan out like a proper student? Any info is massively appreciated. Cheers
  17. This photo of me turned up on Facebook after a mates houseparty last Saturday.
  18. Haha, cheers guys. I've posted videos here before and got abuse for the unicycle, so was a bit wary. Had a lot of fun (and some not so fun) times while making this, so Im glad people enjoy it I wanted to see if I could ride that line in reverse and play the clip backwards while still looking like I was riding it normally. Didn't really work too well but it took me so long to nail that clip I left it in anyway.
  19. Hey guys, Spamming the forum with my unicycling again, but this has taken me almost a year to make, so I hope you can see past the clown bike and enjoy it Cheers, Edd
  20. All girls are crazy. Did the horizontal monster mash with a mate of mine (Lynette) a few weeks ago on a drunken night out. We talked about it a few days later and both agreed that it was just a one off thing. Turns out she's 110% mental. A few nights later she starts texting me. Says shes at a party and that I should be there. She's obviously drunk. Tries ringing me a couple of times, but I don't answer. She is in York at uni and I live near Luton, a safe distance away. The following Saturday night, im laying in bed just about to go to sleep and my phone rings. Its her so I ignore it but she keeps ringing so eventually I answer it. She's back from uni and out in town and shes drunk, wants me to come out. I didn't have any money and wasn't feeling going in town anyway, which is why I was in bed. She starts saying that she's going to book a taxi to my house to pick me up and bring me to town. WTF? I refuse and tell her Im going to sleep but she keeps saying Im boring and that I should come out. I hang up and go to sleep. Its about half 12. I wake up to my phone ringing, I check the time, its half 3. Its my friend Jenny. She was out in town with Lynette and was supposed to be sharing a taxi home with her. She tells me she thinks shes got a taxi to mine instead of her place, and that she's probably stumbling around outside mine now. WTF?!!! I live in a chalet at the bottom of my parents garden and the last thing I wanted her to do was start ringing the doorbell and waking my parents up at half 3 in the morning, so go out the front and sure enough, there she is. Standing at the bottom of my drive, paralytic. She's so drunk she can hardly talk. I bring her inside and put her to bed and go to sleep on the sofa. She has other ideas. She gets up and tries to start climbing under the duvet with me on the sofa. I tell her to get back into bed but she's having none of it and just keeps trying to get on the sofa with me. This is ridiculous now and she's not listening to me at all. I trick her onto the sofa by saying she can get under the duvet with me and then I jump into my bed. Doesn't last long, she then gets into bed with me and jumps on top of me!! I tell her to go to sleep but she keeps trying it on. Im getting really annoyed at this point because Im supposed to be going to Barrow Farm the next day, so need some sleep. I pretty much have to shout at her to stop climbing on me and to go to sleep. Finally she just lays there quietly but not for long. She starts whispering to me. 'Edd, can I tell you something?'. Im like 'Yeah, then go to sleep!'. She replied, 'I'll tell you in the morning.' Repeat x99999999. Finally it seems like she's going to shutup and just before I go to sleep she says, 'Edd, I love you'. FML. In the morning she can't remember any of it, either that or she can remember everything and is too ashamed to admit it. She's a bit confused and embarrassed when she wakes up in my bed. It gets even better when my Dad brings me a cup of coffee thinking im in bed alone. His face was priceless! Last weekend my ex (who is now a lesbian and is engaged to a woman), who knows Lynette, found out about all the above and goes skitzo. Rings me up and has a go at me saying that I shouldn't sleep with people she knows, especially not Lenny because she's crazy (Well I know that NOW!) and is just generally going off on one. Starts crying and says she's more upset that I didn't tell her about it. WTF woman? Im not even with her anymore, so why does it matter who I sleep with? I managed to calm her down after a while and she seemed ok about it all. What I don't get is why she even cares about what I do anymore. We haven't been together for 3 years and she is engaged to this other girl and planning on having kids with her (Don't ask me how that works, I have no idea either). I don't really know what the point in typing all that out was. Take it as a warning, ALL women are mental.
  21. Quality vid. Great to see different riders takes on the local spots. Im so bored of all the spots in MK but this makes me want to go and ride!
