  1. Cool, would we not get kicked off stuff there? what you think?
  2. im exceptionally bored, and really wanna go riding. Anyone up for a ride today. I'm more than happy to travel, aslong as its not too pricey.
  3. I ride a Phase 1.2 My gf ride's a Monty 221PR
  4. I'm bored and fancy riding, just seeing if anyone else is local and free to ride.
  5. No, your right. The London cycle show is simply to give a preview of next years products and bikes. You can't buy anything.
  6. That's correct. From what I'm aware we will have a no of all 3 of the Phase bikes range for the public to ride on our test track. With us (MAD rider's) giving coaching aswell as brief demos throughout each day of the event. The main idea is to give the general public a taste of bike trials. There will hopefully be atleast to route's for people to try. One for beginner's who are new to the sport and another for people who are more experienced in the sport. This will be my first time at the event, so I'm really looking forward to it. Should be a great experience, and alot of hard work.
  7. Documenting? Ross you should come down.
  8. Why am I not surprised lol. You'll have to come over to us and have a go on our course and try out a phase.
  9. Well Done Danny, loving the new techniques. Look forward to see you ripping it up at the London cycle show.
  10. Would love to come, but I'm going to the Hampshire comp. Maybe next time Dave.
  11. Nice pics Dan, was good to see you again. The event was random, they had time trial races and Brompton races, lol.
  12. I wasn't gonna be able to come due to a demo, but it's been cancelled, so I can now come. Can't wait for this, especially since the play day. See you all there!
  13. First I've ever heard. Can't see any harm in trying.
  14. I only found out about the funeral a week ago, but unfortunately couldn't attend. I know quite a few locals went, but didn't hear about how it went, but from what I've just read it sounded overwhelming with the amount of people that turned up to say goodbye. I imagine his family were touched by it. I'l always been thinking of you Hobbsie xx
  15. Was all big but nothing on Rowan Johns.
  16. Knowone can throw a bike around like you
  17. They are used but on rare occasions. They run a steam engine up the track along the riverside in the summer as a tourist attraction. But it's onyl one train and goes very slowly. But in the video I think it was more likely to be something reflective or a light than a train.
  18. Danny that video earnt you so much respect, I can imagine your loads of newbies Idols now. You've got such great talent at throwing your bike around and getting crappy with people. C'mon Danny, that's a bmxer's attitude towards their sport, not a trials riders. Yeah you have some skill and ability..................................................... ..................but your attitude stinks and hasn't impressed anyone! I know which spots Danny filmed at were Bristol, but does anyone know where the rest were, some of them looked pretty nice and worth a session.
  19. Try Bike Dock They do finance and used to sell trials bikes. They are still selling trials parts from what I could see, so maybe it's worth asking them if they're still selling complete trials bikes.
  20. I think this ride was for the Saturday just gone.
  21. Halfords used to sell Koxx, but it was through NSE, so you've got no chance through them anymore. Try supercycles for Onza Evans for Phase then there's other bike shops across the country that sell trials bikes and do finance. Try airvalleycycles, not sure if they do finance but they do plenty of trials bikes.

    Typical thinking by Ben. I've read the thread and can see where both parties are coming from. I was having a similar discussion with my gf's dad yesterday about discrimination and statistics. He's a retired Police inspector and was making points about the fact that discrimination has now gotten to a point that you can['t really say anything without someone over hearing and claiming that your being discriminating. The only way it's not discrimination is when statistics and facts prove otherwise. So in this case insurance companies are discriminating against people, HOWEVER it's based on facts that a 17 yr old male is going to speed and have an accident compared to a 17 yr old girl. It's all facts and figures.
  23. When MAD were making trials bikes with Saracen they did a few with bash plates. This is one of them, you can see it has the fittings for a bash plate. From what I have found this is a 2003 model.
  24. Ditto, though I prefer gapping to back, my biggest fear is my chain snapping. Know matter what your doing, when your chain snaps the only place your going is down and fast. Scares the hell out of me when doing drops or gaps.
