Nicley done mate! ^_^ Loving your backgarden looks really cool, and riding switch is the coolest thing. See you next weekend! Chris

Bunny hopping is good if the surface before the object is flat and smooth, but if there is a dip before it, as there generally is when riding natural you have to pedel to avoid a nasty faceplant like I have done on many occasions. You could start the bunny hop earlier but then it is not as efficient, and you may as well be pedeling up. Chris

Should be an excellent event can' t wait to ride (Y) Everybody that has been involved up to this point has done a brilliant job. Does anybody know if the event is going to be advertised in MBUK. Because I really think that would potentially boost the crowds and bring in a none trials community as well. Chris

I still ride for BT/Selectbikes, I just ride 20" in comps so I have to keep riding both to keep fresh on each. Chris

Well put together scott. It was a good day to ride, some cool lines on those pallets and cable drums and structure of the demo was cool as well (Y)

I am going to try and produce a few more vidoes over the next few weeks, I am just really busy with comp riding and stuff at the moment. Cheers Chris

Soon hopefully, can't wait! Chris

Pretty kool vid, I like the style! <_< I guess thats the 1065mm frame. Cheers Chris

I thought the trial was really well put together, the sections on yellow route were about right. Shame I could not get my head around some of them, stupid crashes all day. (Y) Cheers to the organisers! BRING ON ADDINGHAM Chris

Its all down to personal preference and style of riding. If you like to role things and prefer to flow more on natural, longer bikes allow you to do that. If you want to ride technicle sections where hopping is needed in a big way a shorter 26" would be better suited to the job.

Pretty much all natural, because of where I live and who I began riding with. When I crashed it hurt, but I was more annoyed because I cracked my Giro e2.

Cheers for all of your comments, That was only my second proper street ride so hopefully I will be able to push my limits a bit more in the next vid, my first post as a full member as well. Thanks alot anyway Chris Light
