  1. Good video!, Girl with blond hair at 1:46 made me laugh,

    Video makes me wish i had made a post up for a ride while i was on holiday down there, looks like you lot were having a good old laugh, would of been loving that.

  2. I found a draw when i was about 7 and proceeded to eat it with my friend :lol:

    We call them draws down this end too. Power to the people!

    Not something found on a ride, but terribly odd. Sorry for the long story. I found it a bit comical, initially.

    So I roll down to this church near my house to practice on this dippy little concrete block. Having a bit of fun, I guess, and this guy on a Harley motorbike (obviously some kind of "outlaw biker") comes around the bend and cruises across the small grass field and parks his noisy piece of crap right where I was riding.

    Says something, but I couldn't hear him over the exhaust pipes. I say yeah or something neutral like that. He just sits there. So I just sit there. How odd. I'm wondering if he's gonna try and hit on me or something like that. Oh boy...

    I ask him where he's rolling in from. He points southward, "from over that-a-way" he replies. I crack a smile. That was lame. He has some kinda gangland biker patches on his back, but never did make them out. They were in that fake all-caps calligraphy that's hard to read. I wasn't exactly going to stare at him either.

    Soooo.... where you headed, I ask.

    "I go wherever the wind takes me". (that's what they teach you in outlaw biker class, I think)

    HA! Seems I've met Clichéman™!

    I'm sure he saw me roll my eyes.

    So he sat there for a long time. So did I. Fiiiinalllly, he gets up and walks around a bit. I keep an eye on him because you never know and now I'm really beginning to wonder what this is all about. He makes his way under the bridge for a while. I figured it was to take a leak or something, but he didn't seem to be the type of guy to worry much about manners.

    DING DING DING! But then it all clicked.

    Apparently I was totally ruining his 'pickup'. :o I'll guess someone stashed some hefty drugs (I'll guess) under there somewhere.

    Uh oh! So, before I get shot, I roll up to the church and do not much of anything in hopes that he'd go away without incident.

    It was all so clear now. Why he made a beeline for that spot. The vague answers and odd behavior. Waiting for me to be off. I must have made that guy pretty nervous (before I got spooked and left the area) He was probably plotting on what to do with my corpse if anything went bad. He finally rode off, thank goodness!

    Phuck me, your an action hero!

  3. Oh yea just to back up my point, we got 3 people and a car into the campsite without anybody realising, did burnouts and drags in it for 2 nights without anyone batting an eyelid, the car also had a large quantity of illegal substance in it. haha good times.

    You coming again this year mate? Come join the TF crewww

    your a f**king lier if u rekon u did that at last years nass. no way, sercurity was to well. secure. they didnt take any shit. i got collared for dancing on a phone box, then chased around site. so to be honest, if you think u got away with doing burnouts in the campsite. then sorry mate your a bull shitter

  4. Im getting bang on nass this year (Y)

    Should be with loads of mates as well. Like twenty

    How are you lot going about the alchohol restictions?

    i dont fancie having to ask my "of age" friend to take in twelve beers for me? Plus he will be taking his own

    Im f**ked?

    Or anyone got ideas

  5. i brought a zm1 christmas time 2007, iv been using it since then, Its a nice light frame, And there has been absolutely no problems with at all, No cracks or stress marks.

    Id buy zhi again after hearing the problems with other frames, and knowing my frames been 100% fine makes me put alot more trust in the company

  6. It's going to cost allot. Just think, you need proof of delivery, insurance and the same for returned delivery. Plus £15 of wheelbuild on top. Don't wanna take Tarty's business away but it's in your best interest to get it done locally.

    Agree'd Lbs it is (Y)

  7. Dont get a floating rotor, There heaveyer, Much heaveyer and as the way that the "FLOAT" part is joined, its likely to be prone to cracks and other defects when using for trials, there designed for Xc and downhill where the rotor and pads generate an amount of heat that need to escape. floating rotors cool quick than the norm rotors..

    Best bet would be somthing like a hope mono trials, Simple. and effective (Y)

  8. No one who's rode for a year should get a koxx....

    Mate,

    you come accross as a complete T**T, all you seem to do is critisise people and actuly offer them no help..

    Yes, he been riding for a year, And maybe hes progressed rather quick so needs a new bike to sport his new found talent.

    Sort it out

  9. Alright guys basicly iv chose to do one of my collage course presentations on trials,

    Other than the front page of this presentaion, im on the first infomative slide,

    My title for this slide is 'What is Cycle Trials'

    As it needs to be in quiet abit of detail, im just wondering what you guys would define cycle trials as?

    Im not talking about, what it means to me, and what it represents in my life, Ill cover that later in the presantation,

    Wondering what you guys would define it as?

    As if it was on an online dictionary, Writen About a paragraph or to,

    Cheers

    Ryan

    Note, I am not not going to copy and paste anything writen in this article, I will combine and re-word and re invent any of the help put forward by any of those nice enough to help

  10. them shadow thingys are supposed to be reet, but can you not just add an extra notch onto your snail cams or something?

    cant be that hard to set up.

    Matx

    Ahh, i would.. but when the chains long, and i put it to right tention, the wheels to far back, for the brake mounts.. get me? :S
