N.Wood

What size rotor were you using? Brett McCollugh (sp?) uses one on the back of his Peyto, and has had special post mounts welded on for super special-ness. He doesn't have any other mounts of any sort, and has been running it for a fair while... Have a looksee on OTN for some pic's of it (N)

I do AS media studies so i find myself looking at shot timings, lengths and camara angles etc. but i can't say i read into the politics side of things, no. EDIT: Politics, not polotics, dammit.

Great, that means more money for them...Now you have to buy a driveshell as well :- I wonder if they've improved the shite lockring design so you can actually get to the bolt if you have an ISO shell...

Hmmm...I don't think so... I've used a set of Plaz CRM's and some Heatsink Batch B's..I swapped the Heatsinks for the Plaz's today, and i now wonder why i ever went back to Heatsink...

I can't help i'm afraid mate, does it say anything in the manual/on the website? You're better off posting this on a Jump/4X/Dh forum as well (if you havn't already thought of that :- )

He he, shit your right actually...

I think i've eaten a fair amount of that stuff over the past couple of days (home alone = ready meals), so i'm gonna get cancer oh my god omgz!!111one.

Ditto.

N.Wood = Nick Wood. But everyone calls me Woody. Which is nice :(

WTF? In my 16 years of living, i've never seen anyone 'leet'. What kind of retards are they? Spelling 'ham' like |-|4/\/\....'cos thats cool, and saves loads of time in the process :(

Some nice moves there, and some decent stuff to ride by the looks of things! Out of interest, what brake pads are you using? They sound looouuud...

Back again... What station are you arriving at Max? Waterloo East is a good bet, then all you have to do is cross the road and you are at Shell centre. All around there is safe.

Hello Max, i was there when you bought your T-Bird off Jake... Basically, i'd try and go on a Sunday when theres less people around, less offices are open etc. and there are likely to be some other trials riders around. I've been riding London for getting on 2 years, and i've never had a problem with being mugged or whatever. The Shell centre (building on the same side as the London Eye, but across the grassy bit) is Probably the safest riding spot in London, there are always plenty of people around and it's pretty out of the way of most things nasty people are likely to visit. South Bank (the part where all the Skaters go) can be a bit dodgy (the skaters get annoyed etc.) but thats only if you venture under the cover and get in there way. there should be no need to do this, theres not really alot to ride there. The Tate area is also always full of people, and not near any shops or anything so aforementioned nasty people rarely go there. Across the river there is St. Pauls, which is also totally safe, (not many nasty people want to go look at cathedrals you see :lol: ) and the only trouble you're likely to get in there is to be moved on by Police. Thats pretty much the main spots, you'll learn more as you become more adventurous and ride with more people. A note about police: The side that St.Pauls sits is The City of London, the Police there are alot more strict on riding. On the South Bank, i've never even been moved on by Police. If they do confront you, just be apologetic and courteous, and do as they say. It might sound a bit loser-ish, but it's better to be a loser for 3 minutes than be arrseted for criminal damage! And finally... as i've said i've never had any problems whatsoever, if you keep to the main, touristy areas then you'll be absolutely fine, it's only when you start to go down dodgy sidestreets in un popular places when problems arise. And finally (properly this time)...Have fun, and just have your wits about you, just be aware :huh: Have a good time! Woody.

Might try that actually Simon, Cheers for all your help people :huh:

Wow, that's so alternative.

You could have a look in your local TK Maxx for some shoes, they usually have some skate orientated ones. I've bought a pair of vans and 3 pairs of Globes from there. The most expensive pair was £25. Having said this, i went to one where they had no decent shoes at all, so it depends on the location of the store and if you're lucky or not. Sometimes they have loads, sometimes they have bugger all. Also have a look in skate shops and see if they have any sales on. The sole pattern on most Vans is very similar (waffle design) so look out for that and see which upper suits your foot best. And as Ad said, try as many on, from as many different companies, as you can. Good luck!

Hmm....They're Azonic bars and a Raceface Dues stem (i think anyways..thats what it looks like from here). Tyres are a personal preference kinda thing, that back one looks like a Maxxis in a Maxxpro compound. The front one, however, i have no idea.

I'll comment on the frame when i see some better angles... But what i will comment on, is his interesting set up. (I know it's personal preference and i'm not dissing it, just commenting :) ) It seems to be a compy set up with 2" riser bars, and what looks like a high front end. Also interesting to see him using the now 'standard' wide, drilled rims which he stayed away from for so many years! Props for making a longer frame though, hope it all goes well :)

The head'll be a bit tricky to fit into a ketchup bottle :)

A lifesaving course i believe :-

Mr Munn, i might do, but my LBS is pretty poor. Update: i topped it up with fluid, everything was dandy for about 2 seconds until the fluid started to leak out of the hole they drill in the top cap (to allow the diaphragm to expand i presume), and theres not a whole lot i can do about this... I'll email Magura/Venhill and see what they say, i'm at a loose end at the moment :-

It's the posh way of saying 'Halibuts' - as in the fish. Halibi, Halibuts : Potato, Potarto.

Right then: A blue pallet measures: 119.5cm x 100cm x 16.5cm 2 'standard' pallets i found in my garden measure: 120cm x 80cm x 14.5cm Woody :wink2:

Bacon with Apricot jam is suprisingly nice, i was 'made' to eat it on a very hung over morning at my friends house. Pear with squirty cream is nice as well. And props to the bagel lovers :wink2:

I'll measure one tommorow Mr Rich :P Can't think of anything better to do :wink2:
