  1. I have just read the write up and looked at the pictures and it truely captures the day for me! I had so much fun, met old friend and made new friends, rode my bike and loved every minute of the day (which started with Warren G and Nate dogg, Mike Playlist ruled!!:) )

    Hands down i can say that the ride / atmosphere and everything was on par with Roadtrip 2005 (my favorite time for riding)

    Big Cheers to Mark, Dave,Dr John and Adam for the prizes , the judging was so cool and i am honered to have been a part of it. Roll on Section 002!

  2. I think the best thing to do is let the dust settle from this weekend and let the guys enjoy the summer and then see if its a do- able thing later in the year. There is plenty of things coming up to get excitd about ( clean, Fort bill , that team comp thing at brimham) unfortunatley the joy of lads with beer and booze is not a great mix( i have been in way worse situations than a few wee explosions :P) , respect goes out of the window and what not...

    As i say let the dust settle give the guys a chance to enjoy ther bikes/ summer and see what 2012 has in store.

  3. NOt to sure these will work to well, even to take the shock/ bumps/ vibration out of the ride. what stops them just being at 'full' travel when you stand on them and during your pedal stroke these will change the height of the pedal - all be it 5 mm but this will still feel like a bent bb/ pedal axles.

    Thay atre pretty though :P

  4. Yeah the kids and who ever else were throwing them balls! I thought about making it across but when aurelian came up behind me and started shaking the beam I noticed other riders were not gonna le me get to the other one so in I went! Was all in good fun!

  5. I abslutley loved this weekend! I saw some old friends, caught up with people, had non stop banter and made some new friends! I can honestly say that this weekend is the sole fact I have not quit being a 'trials rider' I may not ride the bike very much but I have so many friends in the sport. I would like to give a massive thanks to matt for letting me loose on the mic, Stan you are a legend for not beating me down! And I would love to know who suggested I walked the plank? Those kids were savage! I still smile thinkinkung back to how many people I made laugh and do the mexican/ welsh wave! TD12???

  6. Juicy is on the rear as i wanted to try rear disc and had it sitting around at home and don't have a rear hope.

    Putting my Echo SL / Maggie on the rear i thinks?

    Just a wee update aswell, i have improved its looks by fitting a White inspired Bar.

  7. Hey Everyone,

    I would like to thank everyone who has been patient with me while i have not been riding and to all the guys at Tarty (Past and Present)for the banter and love while i was off the bikes.

    Big Thanks to Dave a Dr Jon for sorting me out with the frame and other parts.

    Now time to get out and ride it! :-

  8. I love this, i cannot wait to see it ? get my phat arse over it on Monday.

    The frame will snap because:

    1) its not made from metal mined from the Amazon region.

    2) ' We ' cant have it so its clearly not that good.

    :)

    Ali cummon, i thought you would like this, we supported you through v - brakes ! :P

  9. EDIT: Kenny's been back on various bikes, but not really back up to speed on his Inspired yet. Hoping to bully him into changing that though, his shiny new Inspired deserves to be ridden!

    Point taken, i will bring the green machine over on Monday for a play in the warehouse- need to grind the rim and fit a rear maggie...

  10. I Will be there ;-)

    This should be a good one this year if we all get soem nice, cheap suggestions in now and make a great weekend of it.

    I hope the Barbeque on the saw blade is back, them burgers were tasty!

    ( i have now gone to the dictionary to check out the word freak as i may be calling the kettle black!)

    Edit: nope i am just a devient!
