You lift with your strong foot, like most other moves. You can start with your weak foot, good practise for short run ups and tight spots but generally when I have room I use my strong foot.

Well not juuuust those 2 things, it's your overall technique. It's hard to put into words exactly because it's become a muscle memory to me and I just do it lol.

I would say the the actual pedal kick down, to me anyway, is just to lift the front wheel in an instant and as a stamp downwards for my whole body to jump upwards. Then the rest is up to your arms pulling up and tucking your ass back above your front wheel like a normal bunny hop. I used to be able to pedal up ~40inch range on my mod, anything higher I would tap my front wheel for that little extra height. Couldn't bunny hop as high though. But remember when you tap the front wheel don't hold onto the front brake!

It doesn't bug me enough to un-build a wheel, strip the hub then rebuild the wheel.

Hmmm, but the two sides of the backings don't have the indents like the rockman backings I see on tarty. The materials are not that light too, they are as dark as TNN Blues. Trying not to spend too much anymore on this, as much as the non matching hubs annoy me. But if I did change I would get a silver hub on the front!

Don't think they are, the phatpads had round backings didn't they? The material might be though.

f**k your ALS ice bucket challenge nomination. I've donate £10 straight to ALS and another £10 Water Aid cos you idiots are wasting water.

What happened to Caelifera?

Had an awesome ride today, got back to about 50% of what I used to be able to do. Now I'm 100% hurting all over.

Was that a bunch of curries around 1:40??

I swear current Echo TR clamps are made of cheese. The area under the bolt head is already squashed. I'm sure the first ones I got when they first came out wasn't so soft.

Front and rear brake setup now solid. Front is gonna kill my wrists.

So I had an Echo 24 for a few weeks but that thing felt weird as f**k and I never got on with big wheel bikes so swapped it for this! Feels pretty damn good and it's pretty light, lightest mod I've ever had anyway. No Idea of it's weight though. Literally 2 little things I'm waiting to sort out before I can say it's properly finished Specs: Onza Genesis frame and fork Bonz stem RockMan high rise RockBar Tensile Toco levers front and rear (these are sweeeeeeet) Trialtech front rim with Try-All tyre and V!Z hub Try-All Hole rear rim with Try-All tyre and Onza sealed hub Echo TR clamps, cranks, pedals, urban bashring TNN LGM back, no idea what the fronts are, they are dark blue material with CNC backings I can't identify! Weighs approx 8.5KG

Kitchen mix. You so should do a mix in each room in your house! I almost have my mod sorted, can't friggin wait to get out on it! Don't know it's exact weight but it's the lightest mod I've ever had, feels pretty damn good.

Yep got cold water. Probably is something in the loft. House is being refitted, got some new pipeworks in a few places. To be honest I don't know what the builder dude has been doing, he's been up the loft a few times doing something. Maybe he has closed off a pipe or something. But thanks anyway, doesn't matter now though. I'm going away for a few days then my Dad is back. He can sort it out.

Can't figure out how to get the hot water running in this house (my parents, I'm just living in it till the house sells). The water is heated by the boiler (gas) which then goes into the tank. Or I can flip a switch (electricity) that heats the water that's already in the tank. But when I turn on the hot water tap there's no water coming out at all. So it seems like there's no water in the tank at all. Can't get hold of my Dad cos he's in Hong Kong, trying to call sister to see if she has his mobile number over there but she's being useless and not answering her phone.

Perfeeeect. This is what made me wanted to start trials!

Had those as well. One that occurs often is when I stand half on half off curbs and just about to fall off and it always makes my whole body jump and I wake up instantly.

I've been having flying dreams! I fly for a few seconds then drop, I get that sinking feeling in my balls like when you go over a little hump bridge. Weird shit.

Lost postbox key. Hand too fat to fit in the gap to get letters. Use chopsticks to pick out letters. First tried using an old toothbrush (first stick-like thing I came across) but dropped that in too. Now there's an old toothbrush in my postbox, too far down to reach with my chopsticks.

I don't think it will look smart at all haha.

TF gimme some ideas on what to do with them all!

My shopping cart on Tarty came to £99. One pound less from free delivery. So I looked for the cheapest useful thing for £1, came across things like hose clamps, wristbands, bolts that sort of stuff. But then I came across the Monty stickers, and one particular style (style 11) only cost 1p each so I naturally added 100 to my order. I sure hope Tarty has enough
