    This A Scam..

    I got the same email from a different person about a laptop. I just replied "thats a shame"
  4. if you choose to learn on natural, you will learn much better core skills and improve your overall riding skills.
  5. wish I had seen this sooner, I am only 15 mins away so would have joined you. Glad you liked it though, should be even better once its completley finnished!!

  7. interesting fact!! Iolo coined up the "TGS" phrase with myself and Spunkey Monkey Tom in Sheffield a few years ago. We were riding with some street riders who (seriously) only did taps, gaps and sidehops all day. Thats where the saying comes from. PS, TGS is fine, I do it all the time! Where it goes wrong is the constant videos of new riders who might as well have bought pogo sticks from argos for half the price! hop hop bounce!
  8. what if you find a big gap when riding natural?
  9. the big chunky welds are a giveaway for them being alloy Seen these in the flesh and on a bike, they are the mutts nutts, the final ones will be awesome!
  10. how random, I have ridden one of those spots in your vid, its in a town outside Barcelona. There's a cool park nearby with a weird red brick climbing thing....have you ridden it? Props on the vid too, was pretty cool.
  11. I am pretty sure rims are drilled after they are made. There was a time before drilled rims where everyone did their own, as long as you don't go nuts then it will be fine
  12. no, I just have a "deal" with kenny as he gave me a disk brake when mine broke.
  13. I know I am a basher! But ROWEN!!!! I never call him by his name, to me he is "mr smoooth" PS, ta for those who put my name! I must say that I am not the best though, Ben Slinger is pretty awesome at comps and Rowen Johns owns the streets, they are the UKs best riders in my eyes
  14. naarrrrr! I always thought I was better looking Tim Henman!
  15. great quality vid! Like you said, a little "arty" filming and editing wise, but as long as the sponsors are happy. Rafals crash was hardcore! I heard his head hit the rock from the top of the seating area! I saw my head too:D PS. Wes, I shall get kenny his brakes soon! The chap at hope I need to talk has been on holiday.

    The Olympics

    I will try and watch the bmx racing.....maaaybe the diving and then I'll switch it off. I find the whole lot pretty boring to be honest, ESPECIALLY swimming, running, cycling, sailing and hockey.

    Wheels

    I personally prefer viz nipples, they have a little more meat on them so are harder to round off with the spoke key. I have built many wheels using them (including my own) and I have never broken one. if you pop a little oil on the threads before you tighten the spokes they wont seize either.
  19. you 100% sure? I saw him get up and walk after the fall (which was harsh! I heard his head hit the rock from the top of the grand stand!) The comp was cool!! Much more tech than I was expecting, there were no big moves in the qualifying, the main problem was staying inside the tape! It was a low scoring qualifying round, so any mistakes got punished! I had an OK comp, did some good stuff, did some bad stuff. I was happy to qualify though. The semi finals were a little harder, I think I could have gotten out of all the sections if I hadn't been riding like a mong. I did clean one of the trailer sections though, so that made me happy. The finals looked hard, but I recken they were a bit easier than in the past. Much bigger moves needed though. Slinger did well getting out of a few, I was well impressed!
  20. lol I can barley last 10 seconds into a tgs vid before switching it off......I watched Rowans aagain as soon as it finnished (and again this morning:P)
  21. Claimed, but at that price I doubt it!
  22. WOW!! You were my fave street rider before, now I think you could just be my fave rider!! I would never think of some of the lines you are doing let alone doing them as big and as smooth as that! The music was PERFECT!!! really melted the vid together. Cant wait till your next ones.
