  1. Hi guys,

    Last December we hosted the UK Street and Trials championships. Our mate from Vancouver came over and roadtripped with us afterwards. He is a motion graphics designer and filmed the entire thing. Heres the video he made from it!

    Hope you enjoy! :)

  2. Anyone find instrumental "film music" really really annoying? As in uplifting / sad / dramatic themes? Not really sure of the terminology. I'm f**king fed up with it, recently tried to watch LOTR and just couldn't get through it for this reason. It's not the only movie that I can't stand for the silly music, don't seem to recall other examples at this moment. It just seems so cheap and gay. It's as though the filmmakers have failed to create a certain atmosphere using the plot / image / dialogue and have to resort to stupid music.

    I know exactly what you mean and it winds me up too.

    I have a retarded geeky housemate who does absolutely nothing except watch films all the time (When he's not at work or asleep). I always get woken up on a Saturday morning by the annoying as f**k orchestral music in the climatic buildup to an 'exciting' part of a film. I find its worse in the comic book superhero type movies, which I hate the most :angry:

    Music like that doesn't play in real life when something dramatic is about to happen, and if the films any good it shouldn't need it to create suspense!

    Edit: Wow I sound angry. I don't mean my housemate is actually mentally disabled, he just has no friends/life and just sits inside watching movies all weekend. Actually, maybe he is disabled :lol:

  3. Camera make/model - Samsung HMX-20C

    Megapixels - Full 1080P HD, can also record in 1080i, 720P and 720i

    Price - Was about £450 new but you can get them for about £200 now.

    What lenses you used for it in your trials video - Its got a 49mm screw thread so I had to get one off ebay. Was about £50 new. Exactly the same as this one:

    Link to a trials video you made with it -

    Link to a place to buy it from - Here

  4. There used to be a decent scene in Bedford. Not sure who still rides, I haven't been up to see anyone for ages. We used to get a good few people out in the evenings a couple of summers ago though.

    How easy is it for you to get to Milton Keynes? We meet up a few times a week, mostly Tuesday and Thursday nights, but there's normally someone up for a ride most days. Really cool relaxed and friendly group of lads. :)
