  1. Ive just found out today that I have snapped a ligament in my ankle. The Physiotherapist said that it will heal good and I can still bike. But how many people have done this and how did it affect your riding ability?
  2. Is this what us Christians are turning into? This is just creating a breed of Christians that say that you have to believe or NOTHING will be good in your life. Even I dont like Christinas who act like that! Why cant they be like me? and just accept that not everyone is a follower and still let them get along with their lives without being stupidly preached to? AGH!
  3. NOT these: They are comfy, but when your hands start to sweat they get extremely slipery.
  4. Ive had that before, with motorbike trials aswel. Im sure its just that your fingers are tired and need the mussels to be built up. Finger exercises? It normally goes away after a while. I had it after doing a day of down hill on a hardtail jump bike with munted forks that were pretty much solid. It went after a few days. I would say it will be fine, just that your hands need to harden. But hey, Im no doctor.
  5. 11 million Jews actually. I reakon sky diving and having both parachutes fail on you, so you free fall thousands of feet knowing that you cant stop and there is nothing you can do. That would suck.
  6. Yeah, your right but I just cant see it happening. I suppose it could be done and it would be real neat if they did. But...... I dunno.
  7. Mad Man - Haste The Day. Haste The Day is just the best.
  8. Oh, why thank you then. Being old wouldnt bes too bad, because you can boost around in a mobility scooter and yell at all the "kids these days". Thats what Im looking foward to, Im going to be the grumpiest old guy ever! Because old's can get away from it Also, falling down a huge, but not very steep that has lots of sharp rocks and die by that. DAMN that would hurt.
  9. Amen to that. In theory its a good idea, but to be able to do it would be so hard. Because of the amount of things being done at once, e.g. pulling in brakes, balancing, shifting body weight blah blah blah. Unlike BMX games where you just get speed and do a button combo to do moves or whatever. It wont work. However, Moto Racer 3 has motorbike trials in it.
  10. Die having to listen to Akon, is the worst by FAR!
  11. Just remember, If you are getting a 2 stroke, you have to pre-mix the fuel whenever you get petrol, a 4 stroke is better for on road riding.
  12. Im keeping my foot on the pedals more and more, big help with better shoes. I just have to learn to position myself right before I jump. :angry: But I can because I sprained my foot real bad!!!!! :angry: :angry:
  13. Cheers guys, I tried some different shoes yesterday and it made a world of difference! Will have to keep working at the mental aspect too. Thanks heaps for all your help guys. P.S Matt Vandart, I dont know why, but your the man for some reason, keep it up!
  14. I have good Crankbrothers 5050X pedals. Thanks for the helpings.
  15. Hey, Ive been having trouble sidehopping. When ever I try it, I can get the hight but my feet (mostly inside foot) come off the pedals and I land with one foot off the bike. I dont know what is causing me to do it? Its annoying because I can pedal kick up the same height! I have checked trashzen but that didnt tell my what to do to stop my foot falling off. Any help at all is appreciated Joe.
  16. Keeping up with motorcross bikes in general on a Scorpa Sy250. Spongebob Squarepants
  17. What is the Orange bike? And whos the Afro kid?
  18. My mate has an app that is a list of all food additives, whats in them and what the side effects are. ITS SICK!!!!!!!
  19. The breakdown in Lash Upon Lash by With Blood Comes Cleansing. Keeping up with WR250 riders on a trials motorbike and seeing how angry they look because they cant get away.
  20. As I said I've never ridden the 4rt. I am interested in riding one now haha. But they do look and sound better than the older year (2007-8ish) Scorpa SY250F. Not the 2010 ones though. In fact all the new Scorpa's look beautiful! Look!
  21. I learnt on a Gas Gas JTX 200 and they are a very good bike! They are not quite as quick as a 250, but they build up you skill so much more for starting off. I wouldnt recomend a 250 straight away. I have also had two Montessa Cota 315's (250cc). They are a very, very neat bike, they have a tighter turning circle than a lot of the others and are very quick straight off. I also have had a 2003 Scorpa 250R, that was an AWSOME bike to own, EXTREMELY reliable, only ever had to replace one thing on it. Such smooth power and also very powerful. Also they look so good! Plus you can get a long ride kit for doing trail rides on. All the weight between them is not that much of a difference. For starting off on, I definatly recomend a Gas Gas TXT 200 or a Gas Gas JTX 165 (which is just an older TXT). I would stray away from Sherco, they are a bit concerning. I find that the 4RT sounds horrible, Ive never ridden one, but you have to rev them so much higher to get a response from them.Plus they have more moving parts so they are heavier and can break down easier. And cost more.
  22. Sorry to intrude. But under the right circumstances Communism would work, the only reason is that all the leaders so far have been Totalitarian (And mad), e.g Stalin, Hitler, they have all been mad on power as well and ran the country into the ground. Look at Cuba, with 98% literacy rate I would say Communism does work.
  23. To be more specific from Disney Channel... Hannah Montana. Jonas Brothers.
