  1. Ill be around probs, not gonna be riding much (wrist is still going slow again) but ill roll around and show yers the spots if you like ..... RJ
  2. 10.5 sounds dooable - 8ft runnup aint much mind - its gonna be tough lke that... but ive gone over 10 ft with a slightly longer run so the super human pro gods can probs go that far short run..... as for the sidehops - bring back the days of ashton doing it on live telly - that was awesome. but like he says - the stick always wins, it can always go 1 higher . . .. . (Y)

    Bails

    oops wrong post - get boons bail vid its like 5minutes of awesome crashes.....
  8. never owned a looong bike but the difference i can see is a short one will bunnyhop and spin and roll (and probs be smoother) eaisier and a looong will swap and tap easier. I would say mid sized 1060-70 is the Ultimate frame for someone who rides bit old school...... but it seems that all the crazy kids are going long these days !!! when in rome - buy whichever bike feels nicest to you after youve begged stolen and borrowed goes on other peoples.
  9. Back in the day i started doing trials on an XC bike too..... but now the choices are alot better - if you are a begginer, get an onza . . . or something else i would reckon.. in fact buy ashtons new frame - if you are smart you can finish that baby off for 500 with pretty grand stuff - it doesnt make sense to buy it Im sorry

    Bristol Photos

    ahhh bollox I forgot about that - happy birthday for then. soz for being a grumpy bugger aswell - my wrist is v slowly loosing pain - i went to casualty but the physio guy said i may have only "tweaked" it, wait a week then book an apointment with the clinic that i saw before .. . . :D before i left though some bloody good riding went down. the best was tunni going hey james i got one then gapping about a mile from a beam to a little bit of wood that i hadnt even seen .... porter tried and was close though . . . . :(
  11. Is that the brand new one if so you are one lucky mother.... roll out of bed and youre at uni plus minto riding is like at the bottom of the hill ..... and to get back up after you can take the elevator !!!!
  12. what were you thinking - not taking the bike - criminal in brissle..... loads of rides happen in brissle and im out all the time... also jimbo the man lives here. there is afew other uni riders about but they seem bit lame and not bother much .... (lazy f**king students) Incidentally which uni bristol or UWE and where abouts are you staying (which halls will determine your nearest and bestest riding spots)

    New Shoes?

    So when do you get yours porter ? ? ? they look much like other pixie shoes them bottom ones to me.... the top ones are slightly oddball but the proof is in the wearing for me
  14. or you are in fact a tiny little pixie I agree I had some old addidas shoes for tennis (oh yeah) that were minto for riding thin sole loads of grip comfy ..... anyway dont waste your money on shoes you can only wear for riding that will only last like a month and are overpriced generally.

    Bristol

    was a good day .... Pic 2 is nice with the lens flare n all but . . . . . . . .
  16. Deep yellow ;) EDIT : Didnt read the bit about red bits but I love deep yellow
  17. Youre tyre probably fits though porter.... my hot s literally falls off without air in ... Cheers for the advice.... Im thinking tubeless is alot of effort and dont i need a tubeless tyre ? ££££ Ive already tried padding the hole out and that dont work...... The zip ties are a good idea ( ilike it because its cheap ) Q . Is presta the roady style high pressure valve ? ?? ? If so then i dont have an adapter to pump it up. . boo so I guess the best idea was to find a skinny tube with a car type (cant remember what theyre called) valve that can be locked onto the rim like the DH ones but where oh where .. .. . . .. . . . .
  18. which bone ? ? ? scaphoid ? ?? ? or summat else - because yeah they suck big time

    Barnstaple Vid 2!

    Nice video - the old lady was born to be in front of a camera . . . . . The riding was good o from everybody and in the best spots too.. .. . . . PLYMOUTH BARNSTAPLE BRISTOL . . . . . the bristol ride was ace when you guys came up . . . . and I even make a small appearance in the vid (gotta get in there somehow) - the ramp was awesome fun when everyone made it up .. .. . even on a koxx with a weee gear awesome. as for the buggered rim well you know what I think - BLACK PADS NO GRIND. then that wont happen (hehe).
  20. but can you get them as non fat bugger tubes ? ? ? ? its a front wheel you see
  21. Ok everytime I go and ride now the front tube valve is being cuttoff by the rim . Im runnin a viz front rim so its just a single wall meaning the valve isnt held upright. and the tyre i have is soo slack on the rim it just twists round making the valve be at a crazy angle and then psssssssssst. Im walking home...... Ive tried padding the hole out but it still gets buggered it just takes a little while longer.. Any ideas or anyone else had similar problems and Id love to hear from yer... RJ
  22. Boon youre a fanny I might be out or i might not
