  2. Advantages Of 26" Mod Over Normal 26"

    in Trials Chat

    Posted

    So we've all heard about the 26" mods, but what really are the differences between a 26" mod and a mod, apart from the obvious wheel size, and between a 26" mod and and a normal 26"? And also, why would i want to buy one and not the other?

    Just wondering because im considering a new Zoo! Pitbull but not sure wether to think mod or normal..

    Cheers :turned:

    The last time i went out riding in icy conditions, after sliding around for ages we thought it would be funny 2 sit on our helmets and slide down a car park covered in ice! Well good fun! apart from the caned helmet..

    Haha! i love the way it says 'comes with spare lens' on the ebay link! Just in case eh!

    My cousins got one a nike hoody with a zip that goes right up the hood. In any situation, whats wrong with a good quality coat, a hat and maybe a scarf?

    But still i bought a gas mask from ebay just because its funny. Mum didn't think so...

    You want free energy? Cold Fusion i believe it's called is when, instead of splitting the atom and creating a huge outward blast, the theory is that when two atoms are joined, it has the same principal of how a star, or the sun, gets its energy. If you can design something to take the heat, and sus the equation, you can effectively control the world, or a lot of it, just through bribery and being able to offer cheaper, cleaner power than oil and all the rest. Then the Iraq war realy would be a waste of time - but thats another story/arguement :P

    P.S read Chris Ryan's 'Ultimate Weapon'

  20. Tyre Capability Limits

    Hiya, ive recently got a try all tyre and am currently running it at a pressure where if i gap across the level to a kerb or something i can feel the rim. I was just wondering if the tyre will stop pinch flats at this sort of pressure and is the way that most people ride?

    Cheers (Y)

  21. Royal Marine Commandos?

    You can join the Royal Marines at 16 with parent's permission, but you have to be 18 to into combat/ get deployed somewhere dangerous. Iv'e been wanting to join now for a few years. Wen i was 16, a month from being 17, i went to Lympstone Commando (Rm training base) for a long weekend. It's called a Potential Officers Parachute insight course. Effectively, its an opprtunity for people seriously considering the RM as an officer to get a taster of the training and the life. By now some of you are probably thinking 'oh yea just a taster, you dont have any idea' but you do everything on that weekend that you would do on the proper Marine/officer selection weekend. This is gym tests (bleep test - min of level 11 max of 15, 60 press ups in 2 mins, 80 sit ups in 2 mins, and a min of 8 pull ups (i think :S )). Then you do the high obstacle course, which realy does test you head for heights walking along a 1 foot wide plank stupidly high above the ground and crawling along suspended ropes etc. Then theres the bottom field where you almost get killed just in the warm up! And last but by no means least the endurance course on woodbury common. 3 miles of cross country terrain crawling through tiny tunnels with rocky/stony bottoms, water, water tunnel (which is only 2 metres long and its not physicaly possible to get stuck in it) and the lake and the sheep dip (which you have to crawl through and shit gets literally all over you). The you have to run the four miles back to camp bearing in mind you have to do it wearing what you just did the course in i.e. boots and combats saturated so really heavy. The run back is done in a formation and 'left right left right' etc. Now i was only 16 at the time and the others there were in their 20's at university and i was still fitter than the lot of them on the running side. This no doubt sounds like no fun at all for most, but you have to push yourself to the limit mentaly and physically just in the weekend, it was damn hard work but i didnt want to go home because i enjoyed. So at the end of the day, the question to ask is would you like that? Can you do that?

    My mate has passed out of training recently and enjoys it thoroughly, but as mentioned on here some people have left soon after joining.

    I say if you get that buzz when you just think about physical hardship, and get excited by the fact you will be the best you can be, like i do, have it!

    The End :P
