      all the other chains are KMCs in disguise anyway...

      Most don't even try to hide it

  3. I had a stock zoot and found it really hard to manual as well, changed the stem to a 90x35 and now it's fine, it also spins a little easier too! It's a really weird balance point on manuals though cus you gotta be leaning back but also quite upright (at least that's what I've found) - unlike bmx's or such where you are leaning back and also quite low down Hope that helps
  4. Over the bars twice, now that's a good ride

      Ahh I'd love to but tomorrow is like the only day I can't make! Can you make it weds or any other day this week?

  5. Dude, if they don't come and there's space in your car... would you mind me tagging along? Obviously pay you petrol monies, and maybe even a maccy d's
  6. I'm planning on going, never been before. Just trying to work out the logistics of how I'll get there and get back Should be sweet though, is there like different sections? (street, comp, natty ect)
  7. How the hell does a one month old KMC ZX610 snap a link?!

      no wippermann 7r8?

      just joking

  8. I did a quick BJM (British Journal of Medicine) search and apparently it's super rare to get forearm splints. It's document but like only a handful of cases, you might just be super unlucky. They said it's also common for it to persist, even after retiring from sport, which would explain why you sometimes get it when you're not even riding. Apparently, not much can actually be done about it! So unfortunately looks like a painkiller jobby Yes there is muscle attachment to the bone but in all honesty I cannot remember what it's called or what it's comprised of Hope that helps anyway though dude
  9. I guess in theory it's possible, although muscular composition in your arm probably differs to those in the shins, helping resist such sensation. Any idea what in particular caused it, seeing as tibial periostitis (shin splints;)) is mainly due to incorrect running technique or poor footwear... I would imagine that rest, cold packs and maybe some anti-inflammatory's would help though
  10. chillblast.com There you go Jake, take your pic. Or just make your own
  11. Wear a helmet and slam your brakes, cus I know how sketchy it can feel! I still haven't really landed a decent 3tap yet, most of the time I get on the rear and jump off the back. Another thing is making sure when you turn, you do so with your body in an up right position, cus my mate was watching me and said that I was still in my usual 180 position and kinda low, which meant I'd never get the right leverage to get onto the rear.. I think it's a matter of mindset and committing fully though, if I make any advances I'll be sure to tell you haha
  12. Try landing 180's on the rear wheel first, finishing in the usual position you'd be in when you go onto rear for anything else. From there it's not too much of a stretch to add another 180, landing a 3tap Least that's how I'm learning them anyway
  13. I'd try this after talking to him, otherwise you might get a reputation for being someone who can't sort his own problems, shys away from them, or a bit of a backstabber. Definitely talk to him first, then if no changes, then go higher than him. Will always look better to management if you say you've tried talking to him about it first, least that's my opinion
  14. Confront him about it Tell him that his behaviour is bothering you and after all you're supposed to be learning from him
  15. I think there should a time limit that they have to set by, something like 3 days. If they don't post the new challenge then it reverts to who was second, if there's no second place (cus lack of entries or lack of decision) then the person who won the last round should set? Also, seeing as this is stickied; there should be rules on the OP
  16. What Jake/ JMCD said. Those little plugs are awesome, so as long as there's a plug socket in the barn that runs on the same circuit as the house then you'll be fine!
  17. Need some shin and knee pads, preferably both in one. Any suggestions?

      they're all quite poo unless you have 80 quid to spend, maybe some 661 rhythms?

  18. LA Story? Haha, me and Brad in with the answer at same time
  19. I would say most of them made the choice at some point in their life yes, I would also assume that most of them may be dissatisfied with their body image but make no attempt to alter it. Wow you really misinterpreted that last part, no haha. I don't believe weist size is any way related to IQ. I'm saying that it would be ironic because most people in the medical profession know about healthy eating and the important of exercise
  20. Why is everyone so bitchy about what I said. Firstly ok, I have replied/quoted. Secondly, my point is that it's still from the Telegraph, journalistic writers for newspapers don't make scientists, nor can they ever begin to comprehend the science. Thirdly, seeing as you were doing points. Here is an article from the Journal of Public Health - The economic burden of ill health due to diet, physical inactivity, smoking, alcohol and obesity in the UK: an update to 2006–07 NHS costs. Here's the link - http://jpubhealth.oxfordjournals.org/content/33/4/527.short It summarises : Results In 2006–07, poor diet-related ill health cost the NHS in the UK £5.8 billion. The cost of physical inactivity was £0.9 billion. Smoking cost was £3.3 billion, alcohol cost £3.3 billion, overweight and obesity cost £5.1 billion Ok so it doesn't test healthy people but from a scientific point of view, no one would be considered healthy if they had to attend the hospital (for chronic diseases, not acute or accidents) Lastly, That is such a giant assumption to make and is actually hurtful, just because I hate fat people doesn't mean I'm some xenophobic nazi right wing dickhead. My hate of fat people is based upon how physically disgusting it is too observe and how society treats it. I don't hate every fat person personally, I just hate the fact that they are fat. If you recall, a few weeks a go I started a thread about gay marriage - advocating it should be allowed. I also have zero problem with people of different ethnic origins, I don't even do what most people do and say "Oh I'm not racist but it's not fair when they come to our country" because I don't buy that shit either. I also have no problem with old people, they are a delight to talk to and remind us of our heritage. So just to re-iterate my point again, hating fat people does not make me a judgmental willy, nor does it automatically mean I hate everyone else who is 'different' from me. Thanks and fair well Yeah but people who are discriminated against on a daily basis do not chose why they are hated for, people can't choose their skin colour and people can't choose their sexuality. PEOPLE CAN CHOOSE TO EXERCISE AND CONTROL THEIR EATING. Also, your example is void. I'd like to see someone in the medical profession who is obese. That would be ironic.
