  1. Lesbian (private joke).
  2. It's fairly obvious in terms of the two major city's Sheffield and Doncaster for riding street, through slightly dryer months they'll be more group rides happen, also Leeds usually has someone riding it most weekends. I don't think that many riders post up their rides on the forum anymore and usually ends up being posted on trials groups on Facebook. There's a good group page called "Lincoln trials bikers" that's usually got people posting up for rides and also a "Yorkshire trials group".
  3. I love the frame proportions seems to suit a riding style like my own loads and looking forward to seeing how Leon gets on with his.
  4. I hope that you do find it. Don't rule out the Facebook ad pages.

    You'll do for me Ben.
  6. I agree was thinking throughout riding in those conditions must be hard enough so fair play. The hop onto rail to super casual roll along it was really cool.
  7. TV is poor, this is why we need more forum action. Videos guys videos. out of all the whores after a free holiday I'm not sure I'd have picked the one with Michael Jacksons nose?

    There's a young gun on a Zona Zip that rides with Jacob.

    Group Ride

    Dont know anyone on a Onza off the top of my head, obviously our ever growing fan club and backing dancers potentially ride zoots.
  10. Friend just sent me this from gumtree
  11. My post was very short but I was disappointed at the filming, the riding on the other hand was so great. I kind of feel that for riders who know those spots such as yourself, Sam and me who have posted we know just how decent the clips are. For riders who haven't been to those spots they can't judge any of those moves at the glen with the filming. That's as constructive as I can be as the only thing wrong was the filming. Something that's been the case before on videos of Jacks and mentioned on this forum. He he could gain more sponsors and so on if he teamed up with someone who was good at filming trials. I was expecting something from Mark (Cleanzine) at some point.
  12. I think my next choice is going to be Hope just because of how the new m820 calipers seem to be lasting and can't bring myself to try out Magura's after the mixed reviews being given. I'll just have to keep up to the Hopes to keep them feeling good I guess.
  13. He is a huge inspiration, with the posts that we see online now and his little projects with Chris and Danny you forget how financially hard work things must be for him and his family. He will get some back out of the work he does still but his wife will be having to provide for all of them now. This will have made all of their Christmas, it's like Danny's 2009 video going way over expectations!
  14. I am pretty excited to see this, I really hope that it isn't over edited though.
  15. Mabel our Frenchie (favourite dog favourite move on the bike).
  16. The Shimano rotors now going by the name of "Slx, Zee, Deore" in my eyes are as good for the brakes performance as the ice tech versions and are currently £13.99 each on Chain reaction which should pretty much close this thread I have been talked into trying out the new Trialtech pads next after a couple of riders who I know wouldn't give them phrase without need. I think out of the other options even when I change from my M810 to whatever brake I end up on next I will still be using the Shimano rotors.
  17. They're heat treated because of the thinner tubing or they would be pretty heavy.
  18. That was great I much prefer you doing that sort of riding. Can't wait to see you on the new Archive when its out.
  19. Yeah with this letting agents she looks after me really well and for bigger jobs she's got to get an additional quote which usually results in a phone call saying that mine is less so she bumps up my price abit which is like bonus and on some we split the difference but at the moment I've just done about 4 jobs free on "you done f**ked up" by the guy who is meant to do the inductions before the property's get let. So I'm adding onto other invoices bit by bit and the next big job should cover it. Another letting agents puts 10% on that I have to add onto my invoices. Their jobs aren't just as local so I have a minimum rate for them.
  20. One of the letting agents who gives me 90% of my work has forwarded on emails from landlords and tenants giving me phrase to two other local letting agents that she knows quite well and has got me both of their work neither as big in terms of property managed by them but still more work coming my way. Having the perks of being self employed with the bonus of someone else finding and giving the work to me and also invoicing and payment going through themselves. Pretty awesome feeling!
  21. I think a group ride should happen now. Your turn to get your buns up to where the cool kids are...... with Jason.
