Real nice shots, also a very small world. I see Kyle Dunn in one of your pics.
Great shots, makes me think of the kind of terrain that would be in star wars.
I've been in whistler a few weeks now, not been using the camera a whole lot, mainly cause I'm too busy riding or because I feel outdone by others and their more capable cameras. I seem to be the one coming up with the ideas for shots and then I seem to either be being copied or outdone by the better capabilities of their cameras, anyone else had that before?
Anyway here's a few of mine so far.
EDIT: I'm hoping to get a banging deal on a 5d mk iii when I visit Vancouver in a few weeks time

Im 23 and just started back after a few years off. I have been riding around two months now and am going bigger than I did when I was a jobless 14 year old. Every day out on bike I surprise myself now going bigger and more technicial.

No but I work with a guy that closely resembles the late JC

CRC Workshop

The lengths some people go to stop thier slave cylinders catching thier cranks
Awesome skills, does anyone who rides brakeless notice any difference to thier riding when they get back on brakes?
-
You seem pretty fluid on the bike. But please wear a helmet, from the stack at the end you know it makes sense.
-
Not much to take photos of as yet haha
-
I'm fairly sure the Shimano Deore arms such as this CRC Link have slightly longer arms than normal. Could be worth a punt, chances are your local bike shop will have a set laying about you could try.

hmmmmmm

From day to day I see more and more riders locations from Northern Ireland on these forums and would love to get a ride where everyone gets together. I know of a few riders localish to me in Belfast but I am willing to travel within reason for a good get together ride with plenty of stuff to do.
So get in here with a show of hands and an idea of some locations. There is some stuff to do in Belfast but I'm sure there is a few hidden gems further afield some of you might know about.
Dates can be sorted out once there is a foundation of people to get it going.

I actually popped the 'Our Summer' DVD on yesterday for the first time in a while. Awesome! Can we expect any more such DVD's from you? I would buy another for sure.

Shin pads are not restrictive, man up in that regard! I have busted my shins to shit over the years and recently got myself some 661's. They're not the most breathable things ever but they do thier job and I can't say I even notice them when they're on.
-
Enjoyed that vid a lot, keep up riding that 24! You have skills and don't let a few people spoil that for you!
-
Fantastic video Ben, great seeing the local sites in it. I only just got the small wall to the right of that tap at the waterfront last night. Me and neil were looking at that massive one in awe!
Did the clip out beside the water not turn out? Would love to have seen that.
-
Some brilliant riding Ben, look forward to seeing a vid up of the weekend. Brilliant meeting up with you and Ross, nice to see some lines I wouldn't ever have seen.
'have you got a plaster?" haha chancer.
-
Yeah, that is true. Notice that the guy in the video was the managing director though, the owner was nowhere to be seen...
An interesting watch anyway, strange to think that we were up against them in the BikeBiz awards the last 2 years
Funny thing is that George Watson the owner will be found most days in the wheelroom building wheels as he has done from the start. The reigns have been passed more to his son Chris but he still has a very active part in the business. Its what he enjoys.
Ross, look forward to meeting you and Ben tomorrow if your up at CRC

I legged it out the workshop door with a load of boxes when I seen the cameras come out!
-
My 180 mono trials isn't even bedded in properly as yet and its good enough to hold my 16 stone on ups/gaps to front. And its getting better with every ride.
-
fair enough, I thought they were tapped directly into it
The standard HD axle does but the BMX axle is different with alloy inserts.

Any good bike shop will have the necessary tools to chase the thread, phone about and ask. In my experiance park tools offering cuts the deepest and more suited to bringing back damaged threads than any other I've used so if you can find a shop with one of those your onto a winner.
-
Got out and took a few snaps, have PM'd to you both but will throw the link up here too.
-
Some real tidy riding
-
I'd imagine a fair bit of it is, tyres are no lightweights either. Will look into a single walled 'trialsy' rim and build that into it see what happens.
-
Just finished building this to get me back into trials. Mixture of old and new bits.
Frame is a proto Atomz Quark
Echo Pure Forks
Tensile Cranks
Rear Chris King Discgotech
Front sun dirty flea on eq29
Minions all round, dual ply rear single front
Front hope mono trial team
Rear hs33 with TNN LGM's (water bleed)
Wellgo MG1's
Weight 10.48kg (on park tool scales)
Rides real good on static stuff, taking a bit of learing on the rolling moves since my last 3 bikes were mods. Real light considering there wasn't any attempt to save weight and plenty of grams could be shaved off in the future.

I had an early prototype of the Ascend on my bike for around 6 months of winter abuse on a hardtail. I was nothing but impressed with it and so were the other guys who had one too. I've my own shop now and won't hesitate to sell one to any of my customers.
