Thanks for all the comments guys. Much appreciated. I was trying to minimise the number of BC's in my riding. The sidehop pedal switch thing was just so that I was left foot forward for the next part of the line, allowed the line to flow a little more, and just felt fun to do. I find that it looks a little more controlled if you don't have to back-pedal mid line. Spending more time honing my technique now-a-days, rather than constantly just killing myself trying to go big. -
I know the alliteration makes the title of this topic more interesting, however we should definitely be calling this a 'kerb comp', unless your use of curb is to allow our friends across the pond to understand what this comp is about? In other news, I am in. Going hunting kerbs...

Cheers for the comments guys. Appreciated. This one made me laugh though. Sadly, I am light years away from Ali. Hence why I have to wear the same outfits as him... -
Long Bike Riders - take note, no matter how big you go, this is how controlled you should aim to be on your bike. Good to see you pulling out the big sh*t Damon. One thing though, I hope that you somehow intend on going back over the roadside rail after the gap to the slanted wall (under the window) ;-).

Evening All, I was saving some of these clips for another wee project, but it won't be coming off for the time being. So thought I'd just release these into the wilderness. Sorry it has mainly been filmed using a tripod. Thanks to Flipp for filming the London Clips. EDIT: and Ross for the Glasgow clips Hopefully have a better video out soon. Go to Vimeo to watch in HD. Thanks to Inspired Bicycles and Phoenix Riders Co for their support. Vimeo Video -> Original Video Some leftovers put together in this video. Had to use the vimeo enhancer as the original music wasn't allowed; Vimeo Video -> Original Video

stan shaw has some 24' TIOGA rims for sale in the FS section. Would be a good buy!!

That sh*t deserves its own topic. Even on TF. The ender clip is silly business...

Ask yourself whether you've just got the shite british weather blues? The weather is starting to improve, get out on a group ride or set yourself a day where you have no other plans but to ride your bike, get the headphones in and ride by yourself, no camera, no pressure, until you can't grip the bars. The former is more fun, but the latter certainly helps as well. If its not just weather blues, then here are my thoughts; May try mixing it up, sell the bike you have and get something different. I first switched to a hex, then to brakeless, then on to 24" bikes. Mix it up. Get out on the rocks, ride street, go to new places. I don't ride my trially as much as I used to, nor do I feel I am as good as I used to be, however I enjoy riding more than I ever have, and as such I will ride anything I can get too having an off day? Don't ride - If you force it, you'll hate that you can't manage something you were doing yesterday, that causes an increase in stress, and thus negative connotations towards riding (#firstworldproblems).

So my old arcade frame and cranks are finally reunited! You've done a decent job with that. I'd have sprayed the forks, but now I see it like that, I ain't sure which i prefer
-
Tom, what is the breed?
-
Do it on your echo first...

google maps bud. i find most of the new spots in aberdeen on there. plus a bit of extra pedalling out of the way always helps
-
Am i going to get motion sickness from watching that movie? Probably!
-
24:22 will be awful. I am definitely sure of that. Not sure why there would be a difference with or without brakes. I'd stick with 22:16
-
The word 'steezy' is stupid. Just stupid. James throws the bars as good as any bmxer. Back on topic, the arcade integrated cog and bash is really nice and i think that is mainly due to the low profile. THe bash mounted BB on Ali's bike is barely even visible (unless you're looking for it), and gives much more clearance than the 4 bolt bash guards.

Great riding Duncs. Some of Dave's filming was pretty darn sweet too. Would love to ride Malaga sometime, although, looks as if you've rinsed it. Edit: Should have said - the song went sweet aswell.
-
I hope you've got a license for that power, Joe. Great wee vid guys. Enjoyed that
-
That'll be no problem for you though luke, because, to paraphrase (with some factual additions):
-
Sorry Luke, I am getting old, too busy trying to die the grey hairs to worry about shoe manufacturer acquisitions. On your other comments: I think they are stitched, but just in a different manner to this year (according to this sneak peak on pinkbike) - http://www.pinkbike.com/news/first-look-five-ten-shoes-2015.html I think TF struggles to understand your accent, hence not realising you've sworn.

Didn't realise that Adidas owned 5.10.

Maybe he's told 3 or more Tinder lassies this, and started to believe it?

I can see smoke in the distance, either the indians are back, or its from the friction fires caused by TGS'ers beating the bishop.... JKS boys...Good to see you've still got it bud! Look forward to seeing some silly big gaps in the streets. You gunna be bringing taps back?
