  1. I am working wed, but only till 3.30, I would be up for a ride, but transport is limited train only (Y) Aran is in spainsh land for two weeks riding his home made roadie frame :P
  2. well, see I will come after work (Y)
  3. looks ace, those are some quality pics, I can see the artist comming out in you (Y) Slinger is just getting better and better, it doesnt suprise me he got up that cliff! When my car is back up and running I will have to come up and ride that place with you, it looks really good, bit sharp though, I dont think my tyres or skin will like it :P
  4. narrr, hawesy is the coolest hands down!

    Lee is a comp boy, so he rocks at natty. (Y) Back street boys, lol I would rather them that what he put on :)" I dunno, maybe I am lucky and have thousands of tracks to use for vids, maybe lee only really likes that sort of music and therefore only uses that music? I know that when I make my vid it will have some interesting music that people might not consider for a vid but will hopfully like, not just the same old heavy loud stuff everyone uses. Get a nice natty vid make Lee, I know you find them boring, but I love them
  6. thats the way I do it except I hold the grinder in my right hand, and the handle in my left, thats normal for a right handed person isnt it? I tend to hold things a bit weird sometimes I use a metal grinding disk, loosk pretty much the same as the one pictures above
  7. if waynes still going, you can add me to that list (Y)

    some good riding Lee, some big stuff, youv'e improved loads, one or two niggles though (not just of this vid, sorry to use you as an example Lee) It seems that people (mostly young mod riders) are just completley sacrifising their style just to go big (or bigger) and always put on crap loud music. I wanna see peoples style, their little quirks and so on. Drop gaps are good'n all, but unless its a unique looking one or somthing the're just plain boring, going from a wall to a pallet might show you can gap, but it doesnt make for a good vid. again sorry to use you as an example Lee
  9. cant wait to see your drop gap mike :blink:
  10. the way I always remeber to turn them is the spanner pushes towardes the back wheel from above for both pedals
  11. I watched the origional "charlie and the chocolate factoy" The other day and I must say its one of my fave films. I just love Willi Wonka in it, he is so random and funny. The songs are ace too and who can hate the umpa lumpas?
  12. I am wanting a 24" to mess about on, but seeing though I have little money, I have set my self a task of building one for under £100 if possible (using some of my old parts, bars, stem etc) I am gonna make my own frame (well, get Iolo to actually weld it for me the jammy git!) I think the local dump is going to become my fave place to get stuff (Y)
  13. it was ok, not the best I have seen. Those dirt trails combined with the little park area was mint though.

    someone selling on ebay, from america though
  16. stupid thing doesnt even have my first OR second name :shifty: at least I aint still called ziggy like my brother named me :D
  17. I'll tell you what, I couldnt even ride like that after 4 years of riding let alone 2. I think you should ride stock again, mod is good an'all but I didnt find it very satisfying. Stock is just way more fun to ride.
  18. I ride maybe twice a week, usually on my own but sometimes I'll ride with my two riding friends if they are up for it
  19. what is ping? I have wanted to know for ages ps, I am trials-ali-C
  20. waaay, I wanna go, it sounds ace. Now I just need to persuade Iolo to go :(
  21. I wanna go......is the trials event uci? I hope it is
  22. wooooooo! What an ace event! I still havnt recovered from it yet, I dont have any energy :ermm: That was such an ace event, the sections were ace even if the mods got the rocks and we got whats left (as is always the case) but as long as theres sections to ride I am happy. On friday I got to see vince, cesar canas and dani comas all ride on local rocks, they were a bit good! On the way to the event on sat we almost crashed into ot pi's car, but it was all good. I was one of the first riders off on sunday which meant I got the bad weather, but that didnt affect me too much. My first lap was just crap, fell off on loads of things, my 2nd lap was better, but still got two to many 5s, I blame my arm pump :(" Ended up 10th, I would have liked better, but whatcha gonna do? I was beaten fair and square. I tried to go and watch some other riders, but I never found who I was looking for. I met Martyn as I was waiting for a section, he was as sorted as ever. Shame I filled in my entry forms wrong, otherwise I would be riding most of the rounds this year.
  23. yeah he does, but he only does it backhoping down the road (which is piss easy). I do them mid 6-7ft gaps :) I wanna get a full rotation gap, but I can only do that from small gaps
