  1. there is this lad in my set at school and for his course work he taught kickboxing, he sucks ass and id lamp him haha, so if anything, trials should at least be allowed for a sport for u to be assessed by, and if you got a video for the exam baord etc. aaaah well!
  2. how dare you luke, it still doesnt work anyway, the full vid but without a few bits he added in are in the linky, by ramps, me and adam sharples(dont know his tf name) You copywrite, how dare you http://media.putfile.com/MTB-Trials-burnleycolne clikky clikky people
  3. excuse me ali c but are you the one who was out on the lash in burnley and you saw 3 of us, KOXX, TREX and Base bike around 3 months ago, u might not remember but aaah well
  4. excuse me luke, lol, but its not the first ever trials vid from burnley because i posted mine,dales and adams up the other day, and why have u put up 15 seconds of the poorest bits of the vid anyway which i sent you on msn, lol. anyhoo, and yes we all need to ride burnley again, a big posse!
  5. cheers, we threw it together in about 3 weeks so some was a bit rushed, yup we ride in the wet quite a lot and we feel blessed when its dry, i realised yesterday that the camera settings were all at the lowest so i whakked them up to top but too late now eh, we will get on with another one soon.
  6. ive been on a long GU 20" and 2005(maybe 2006 i cant remember) Echo Team 20". In my opinion, the echo team was nearly enough to make me convert to 20" it kicked ass, i loved it and it felt better than the GU although the GU is pretty nice
  7. sorry if this is in the wrong section but im still a newbie as i only have about 10 posts or something. This is our video of this month and i hope to make some more every now and again, let me know what you all think , cheers http://media.putfile.com/MTB-Trials-burnleycolne editor and rider - me-josh holmes pink base TA26 Dale Ramplee - polished Onza T-Rex Adam Sharples - Black KOT MS2 Joe Sheppard - mates bike echo control who jumped in to the fountain in manchester the other week when it was freezing thankyou please
  8. Athlete, jeebus my mate calls me for having every greenday album possible, Athlete are bum holingly boringly dull. I also dont like the 2 new bands that try to be Busted or whatever, the sons or dork n mcfly, horrible horrible.
  9. 1500 words, haha das ist sehr blod. Are you doing it for GCSE because i am not doing that. er hat einen sehen grossen kopf. hehe, only joking
  10. Two of my friends both ride onza T-rex's and when they get on a longish mod, they throw them about and get over things that they would usually struggle to do on a 26". They are always playing on my mates Echo Team 20" (amazing bike). But they are adamant that they want to stay 26". It all depends on your riding style, and you can do certain things better when on different size bikes. tis your call.
  11. theres not even anything about it on the Mongoose website, maybe wayneo could help, he is a member on here and he works with him at aire valley.
  12. im with pauloliver, when a V is set up correctly, they kick serveer ass. My XT + avid speed dial v is pretty good but i need a decent BMX cable as they are tougher, At my LBS rik(a guy who works there) suggested that i run a braided outer cable aswell, they supposedly run a lot smoother. (he uses XT)
  13. gusset b*****d grips, you can get them off tarty, they are great and not fat, but still dont seem prone to rippage, i love mine. Either pink , bright green or boring black, haha
  14. mine are in my pinkbike album, clicky clicky..
  15. but in nearly every case, if you have a go on a bike with a decent disk on the the front, it will out perform a rim brake every time no matter what the weather will be or how well its set up, in my opinion anyway. although you can set up v brakes to be pretty kick ass. especially an XT one , haha
  16. aye we all went manchester, it would be ace to ride at night,there are prob fools bum fighting at night or something, during the day you would struggle for it to be quiet. I cant wait untill more of us drive, Leeds here we come, its meant to be great.
  17. well thankyou please, happy new year to you too, my resolutions are, to keep on riding and just improve and bla bla. other than that, i dunno. what about anybody elses resolutions??
  18. i dont think it will ever die as that is where most people start trials, i know a few people who just ride street as they either have never done natural or cannot do it. But the popularity of street frame/short wheelbase style ridng is dying. Everybody(almost) wants or has got a longer frame, myslef included but i will never get tired of street.
  19. firstly dale, maaaa, next, yes im with mallet, get that one (adamant by the way)
  20. ive rode the same bikes as ramps and andy h, the GU rides better
  21. save your money and a lot of stress and get an XT V-brake, mine is monstrous with a grind and decent pads, make sure you get a decent lever though. avid speed dial etc. i got fed up of the different pad business and internet ordering for the maggie pads. its your shot
  22. hello, im josh aswell , tis a small world eh
