  1. hold in there Gav, we all know you're a fighter!
  2. that is a brilliant video, i was really surprised and impressed first time i saw it
  3. "New VW Station wagon, a sporty car for every day's challenges"
  4. does everyone here read their girlfriends' texts and FB messages?
  5. stupid line on the bridge outside Nordstan shopping centre! I've never done that one. Same goes with the brigde at Kungsport, I've actually never seen the stuff on that side, towards the boat. I'm up for a ride again soon, shame I had other plans that day!
  6. very nice video. i really like the colors in the clips. what camera were you using, and how much job did you put into altering the clips to looks this good? big cred for the camerawork aswell, assuming its done with a good consumer camera it looks very smooth.
  7. i found it harder to do the manual barspin though, i just push the bike down (as i'm standing on the pedals) and don't get enough time to spin the bars fully round. it was easier making a tiny bunnyhop, literally just lifting off the floor and trying to not put any weight on the feet. worked for me anyways, i got the bars round. i'm still not very good at them though. this is on my bmx bike with a really low seat
  8. i cant help thinking a lot of those things look silly on trials bikes. some combinations looked cool though. the barspin wasn't too impressive either as it was done on a very streety bike, imagine pulling one with 76cm bars on a mod stem

    rest in peace dude.
  10. I'm not perfectly happy with the clips either, but the edit is more or less as I wanted it, laid back. Up to everyone to decide though. Haha, really? I thought there were a few in there. Thanks to everyone so far, I'm glad to read that people seem to like it
  11. peterbackgren.com You'll find them under "photos". If you're lazy, here's the link to the picture viewer: Demo Pics
  12. This was filmed in July this summer, as a sequel to the video with me and Robert that was shown in the Burger King restaurants here. The first one was filmed around April-May and finished in the end of May. When it had been featured for a few weeks I was asked to make another one quickly, so I went out to ride and film more or less every day. It turned out quite nicely, very chilled video with a mix of stuff. Get it in good quality from vimeo: http://www.vimeo.com/2150523 thanks. Peter peterbackgren.com
  13. gave me shivers. looking forward to it.
  14. sweet jack. fun to see you take the canal boats
  15. hahaha alright, we clearly have a discussion going on here. roadtrip sounds like fun. it's a bit on an issue that a lot of people are busy during the week, but i think we can sort something out. it will cost more to go north, but might be worth it. how about leeds-manchester-sheffield in the week? i've also been thinking about liverpool, been there once but could be cool to go again.
