  1. Thats looks great! The seat suits it really well, reminds me of the Leeson carbon one. Any chance you can get the post on a lathe and turn it down so that it sits lower? I did that before on my Base years ago and it looked a ton better

    Thanks Paul. The seat post has a slight lay-back as you can see... and the cast lay-back part is just smaller in external diameter than the post itself! So for the best clamping position is where it's at currently.

  2. Been off the trials scene for quite a while, in the summer I bought this frame from here. Over the months I've been buying bits and last weekend saw its completion. Built up with a combo of new and 2nd hand bits.

    Needs some rides to define set-up a little...

    Here goes-

  3. ... You honestly think some youtube nutcase is worth believing over the research done by countless universities and medical research facilities?

    Are you saying that the countless research done at these institutes and facilities have drawn no beneficial results in favour for the use of Cannabis as a medicine? Interested to hear your backing up of this statement.

    It's not a question of 'if', but when it is brought into use as an ingredient in prescribed drugs, it won't be in it's dried raw form of a bud, but that of the active chemical THC which is extracted and then put into use. So it's not Cannabis that will be a medicine, it'll be the THC.

  4. I'd be smiling too if I landed a whip out of that bank. Some cool looking spots, where was most of the riding shot ?

    Also what bike was the third rider with the blue helmet riding ?

    I think first section is Brunswick, second is Shipley, and I couldn't tell you where the third is...

    ...and just so happens I'm blue helmet rider. Was back visiting the northern land and managed to borrow a Zoot for the day :)

  5. Feel shit, beating myself up quite a lot recently over a decision I made a while ago.

    Lost a girl? Sold an awesome bike?

    ----- In other news, and reply to my rant on the previous page, landlord surprised the greasy alcoholic pleb this morning. She was still in bed, he turned up, knocked on her door and told her to gtfo. And has offered to replenish/ give me compensation for the missing beverages and food. I'm done with this thread.

  6. She drank a bottle of white wine, a bottle of rum, a bottle of red wine AND a bottle of Champagne?

    Fair play to her.

    That did go through my mind! Either drank the lot, which I doubt. Or has stashed them somewhere... Bottles are nowhere to be found.

    Get her outta there! Can only get worse...

    How old are you?

    I'm pretty sure she's getting the boot first thing tomorrow from what I gather from my landlord.

    I'm 24.

    Ah, You can get a shag out of that :w00t:

    second thoughts just re-read about the disease lol

    That's a horrific thought. She is rank. Greasy haired and infected. She's all yours!

  7. I don't often get angry, but today made me more than livid.

    New housemate moved in yesterday, get chatting to her, a woman in her 40s. She's run down and riddled with some sort of epic and vile disease, anyway.... Sat down to be social in the lounge as she had requested we watch a film (that's cool I thought), we proceeded to have a get to know you session whilst the film played in the background. All was good, and she then said, 'Do you have any alcohol?', I replied and told her I have a bottle of red, and she screwed her face up and said she isn't a fan of red. Great, more of me! I didn't have any to drink (school night), then she ventured out to go and find some. Comes back with a bottle of white, and drinks. I go to bed and leave her to watching mindless television long into the night.

    New day, during my pre-work routine I look into the fridge and notice a large quantity of my food has been eaten. Not cool. But hey, it's only food I thought with a slight air of frustration. Then look around some more to notice my bottle of rum, empty in the fridge. Getting more frustrated. Oh, what's that over there? Nothing. The bottle of red next to my bowl of fruit had vanished. Long gone, not to be seen again....I thought she said she doesn't like red wine, they figured when pissed most people will drink anything going. I then left to go to work, sat at my desk in frustration at what has happened. Finish work, get back to the house, put my bike in the conservatory and check the fridge... a bit more food is missing- but hey, it's only food. Get to my room and have a look around. What's missing? A bottle of Champagne I was given as a gift earlier this year. I then filled with epic amounts of anger. How can somebody (especially of that age), be so disrespectful, blatant and arrogant. Some human beings are incredible. I really struggle to understand the motives and mindset of people.

    If you could be arsed to read all that, thanks. Writing that has calmed me down (a little bit).
