i'd assume a FFW it would prevent chain lengthening a bit. because the opposite force from the back pushes it back together.

i love that TF constantly reminds me of Peep Show.

it did sound a bit like exactly that.

you do know they have a poisonous sting...??

bumping this, because i just found this: http://www.profileracing.com/2012/03/q-and-a-which-spindle-do-i-need-part-1/ profile deem just 19mm of contact between 48tooth spindle and cranks arms as safe! i'm actually in the clear. this is way less than what i assumed as optimal / safe

rule of thirds!

and chain!

can't you get like a used iphone to bridge the gap? i get along pretty well with android. but if you like the iphone, just stick with it. they are pretty good and reliable phones. i just have a general distaste for everything apple.

you will be sentenced to become the other persons's butler.

activity stream preview killed your joke, you meanie!

one thing not mentioned, i was kind of asking myself lately: you do the tap with front brake open or closed?

is it a resprayed open space? to me it looks a bit like it.

you're the james turner of bike photography!

didn't you guys like the little twirl just before 2:30?

says "trailjam" in opening credits ...

i don't think this anymore... on our level we can get on all the obstacles with just tucking the legs and a bit of sideways movement. at least as long as your obstacles are lower than your hips (which is quite high on a bike). skip the playmobilics and ride your bike more. get off the brakes and try to get more comfortable on the back wheel. for me the sidehop became much more of a riding/ flicking the bike kind of motion, which is way more enjoyable than trying to yank the bike upwards - parallel and tight against the wall.

i thought he was mostly doing it himself - then just adding the noscript tags is pretty easy. if working with templates, ignore it indeed.

i usually browse with the noscript-addon and only turn it on when i really want to. i think the no-javascript-alternative is just good practice for all eventualities.

this is how your "portraiture" gallery looks like without javascript. (the other two galleries are better - all pictures in a row) you probably should add a "please activate your js" <noscript> alternative.

yes. are you on a company computer? can you check the browser history maybe?

just tried this with the email of the company i work at: do a whois- search for your company's web adress (this: his_company_name.co.uk) at for example www.whois.net in case of my company the server address listed after "nserver" is one from the company that does our emails. no idea whether this works for you, but maybe worth a try?

isn't trial basically lifting bikes?

i'm back at appr. 40cm sidehops (no brakes) which i'm really happy with right now. i didn't ride for a few months in autumn/winter and basically lost all sidehop skills. my biggest issure right now is to get more comfortable with the sideways movement. so i can stay more parallel to the wall / move further back from the wall. and so i don't have to (at least partly) have to hover the front wheel over the obstacle.
