TrialsIsHard

Ah I see, I hadn't considered past money problems. Looking at the much larger picture, it seemed to me like the 'story' in which life is meant to follow (if you believe that) has gotten to a point where all countries have made alliances that they won't break. So there's no chance of a huge war to change life as we know it, as I see it the world will continue to become more and more populated until eventually havoc breaks out. There couldn't be a one child per family rule here, there would be a riot about human rights!

You did the right thing, although probably contacting the school would have been a better plan. Even though it's half term there's going to be people replying to emails and what not. If someone had the decency to see my hardwork on the floor, and stop it being trashed and attempting to return it, I'd be properly grateful. After all you left it in a place where if she was looking for it, it could be easily found. It's not like you took it with the intention of the reward. Kudos

This is a quality idea for a thread. So I'll help get it rolling Basically the other day I was thinking about this whole '2012 end of the world' thing, and although we're all fairly sure that the world won't physically end. I reckon that it could be a point in time in which the world comes so corrupt that it's not worth living in. Events such as the Croyden riots, footballers wages, Euro crashing, people like Gadaffi, sort of steer me to believe it. Would be interested to see your views on what the 'end of the world' might mean, aside from the fact most people say it's bullsh*t.

Indeed we are, is that '1000 hours' meant to be taken literally? or is it meant to mean a bloody long time?

Both of my wrists crack constantly when I rotate them, I assume it's from trials, but unlike yours it's painless. Could try using a powerball to stregnthen up the muscles in the wrist, but that's not ideal if it hurts to use them.

That looks so tidy

Absolutely loved that, really well filmed. How can that be 'giving mod a try'? If I'm that good at some point in my life I'd be happy with it! nice work

Love the auto-focus fail on the tree.. almost looked intentional

Every single bit of 'fancy editing' after 0.10 was completely un-needed.. ruined what could have been a potentially good video

Reaaally like the look of the built in booster/rear end.. not so keen on the downtube but I think it looks good

A drop gap to 90?! are you suicidal? Clearly as you plan on trying it again! Props for the bravery though

What do you mean 'things you can do'? I recommend you learn the basics, rear wheel hops, trackstands.. etc Then build it up from there, if that's what you're talking about.

I refuse to comment on this until you start wearing a helmet..

Looks so effortless Nicely edited too

It cracked there due to the cable holding piece welded to the frame, those things are huge stress raisers. It had probably been weak at that point for ages

Ahh too far for me buddy, I'm way over in Oxted/Westerham

Where abouts in Kent are you? I live down the kent/surrey way

Some big lines in there, like the style too

Ok, thanks mate!

Heard nothing bad about the HTC evo 3D, although I'm not sure how good the 3D features are. http://www.carphonewarehouse.com/buy/HTC-EVO-3D-V4G36-FCON Quite an informative review here too http://www.engadget.com/2011/06/15/htc-evo-3d-review/ No I don't work for HTC, but it looks pretty cool

Would like to go down to Barrow this week, does anyone know if it is open? Also, if the answer is yes to the above.. Who is down and on what days? Don't really want to be on my own

That is a lovely bike! Love the look of the sky frames.. not the new ones though

Maybe, I think it's the whole 'leave a flea in a 5 pallet high jar.. and it will only ever jump 5 pallets high' sort of principle I'm going to do some explosive exercises I found on the interweb, and see how we go thanks for the reply

Can I just point out the white stain on your front tyre.. Explain yourself

Yeah, I get what you mean, I have also experienced this with gaps/sidehops. Thing is I have been practising sides and they are still getting smaller?! When you say speed, are you referring to explosive upwards speed? Slightly confused by your answer if I'm honest!
