Thanks to John Mack and his vimeo accoutn (ledgend!!!) i was able to watch it, cheers bud! Amazing video, really really enjoyed watching that! Great filming Chris, and mint editing Danny, the combination made for an awsome vid!! Really really good day that was, lets make it as good as, if not better on the 16th! Absolutely loved the Beau bit Danny, really well edited, wasnt expecting that at all! R.I.P Beau! Shame he wasnt actually there to own the lot of us! Glad to see a bit of Owen slow-mo in there too! But i hate how small everything looks on camera! Cheers to everyone involved, and everyone who turned up to make this day amazing! Owen

Cheers for that matey!! Good to see it got in MBUK! And also good to see me in the pic!! Owen
-
Cai, fair play! If you like it like that, then keep it exactly how it is! Its just my personal opinion of what i would do if it was my own! Ride well! And make a vid!! Owen

Ill put my opinion on what you can do to make it better! Get a shorter stem, with more rise! Get some bars without a crossbar thing. Some deity's or something like that, about 2.5ish " rise. Get some smoother tyres, so it rolls nicer and looks alot better. Make it single speed and get a propper tensioner, it will look soo much less cluttered! Get some nice forks on there, some fattys or something, anything but onza! Get a better seat post, prefurably black one! And then, it will "possibly" be the best looking mk2 yet. Owen

I picked my nose before i rode. Helped me alot, made my riding much bigger! Owen
-
Yeahhh, i told him that on msn! Owen
-
Full on ledgend! That was well funny! And does anyone else think that is should be changed to GS, as 90% of these "TGS" riders, cant tap! Owen
-
Holy bb rise! Looks real nice though! Like the looks alot, of both of them. Lets hope the paint jobs arent w*nk! Owen

I like this thread!!! But, opinions from both sides that i believe are correct! In some ways i think, as long as your having fun, enjoying what you doing, who gives a sh*t if your doing GS style, its your choice, and if you like it, then fair play to you. On the other hand, i do have to laugh at people who measure everything they ever do on their bikes. Ohh look, i just did a sidehop 45.35364"! But i cant really argue any of this, as on my Leeson i do manuals ans streety style, never measured one thing i have done on it. Then i got my long and low mod, which i dont mind admitting i do GS style, and occasionally, i do get the good old tape measure out, but not all the time! I find doing both styles gives me a good change, and keep me going in trials, a nice change every once in a while never did anyone any harm! Owen

Yeahhhh boyo! Looks freaking amazing!!! Your going to let me have a spin on this badboy!! How you liking it to ride? Owen
-
Come on, thought this thread needed a bit of a bump, maybe even a sticky? Lets make this a massive turn out, and a good tribute to Beau! Owen
-
Errrm, 16th of this month? Most likely be there!! Owen
-
Yeah it was written by Mike! Any chance of anyone scanning it in like asked above please As i think im in it! Owen
-
Insanity! That is incredible! Rowan just seems to get better and better in every vid! Really really liked that. Any idea when those frames are going to be released? Owen
-
If i cant stop at Grants, is there any chance of you taking me please mate? Ill chip in fo' petrol etc! Owen
-
I'd deffo say go for a Specialized out of them makes! I'v got myself a langster, single speed, hub is double sided, so if you fancy and bit of fixie fun, then just spin the wheel round. Great bike, being a Specialized you get your lifetime warrenty on the frame aswell, so if you do tw*t it down 20 stairs, tell them you were just riding along and it broke, and theyle send you a new'un! And you said, like me, you can get trade, so you will also get a stupid cheap deal like i did!! If you want gears, id say go for a Specialized Allez. Great entry level bikes from spesh, still with your lifetime warrenty, The double chainring (ont front) is £500, and the tripple is £550. So at trade youl get it silly cheap. Both great bikes, just depends what your after i surpose. I love my Langster though! Owen
-
Good pics. Looks like a good ride! Owen
-
Yeah Birmingham is very central, esily accesable and close to where Beau lived. But i dont want to say much more as the last thing i want is people like "just ecause its close to you". I think its easy to get to etc. If people want it anywhere else, like i said ill travel anywhere in the UK, but my vote goes to brum. Owen
-
Another one for dibs on a lift off you Kyle!!! Ill obviously chip in for petrol etc! Lets have a poll for the date, not the location, as little n00bs that didnt even know Beau will just try and vote for the closest one for them! The camping or the few day ride idea sounds mint, everyone get together like after riding to have a few beers and a bbq, good idea forteh! Or, maybe we could rent out a unit of some sort for maybe 2 days or something, and have a massve indoor ride, then the weather will not be a problem? Owen
-
Ahh yeah fair play Danny. If you need help with anything to do with this, then dont forget im only a phone call away! Ill do my best to help in any way, shape or form! Well we cant win, Saturday some people will be working, sunday trains arent the best! Surely most people can book it off if we give enough notice? Owen

Brum Ride Saturday 26th Of July
_Owen. replied to steve@banbury-trials's topic in Member Organised Rides
Yeah Jake experienced a bit of brake slip, went over the bars, and landed on his helmet/finger. I think he has had his Op today, as apprently it was quite urgent as it could have started cutting through it tendon or something? Anyway, like Rich said, im sure he willgive us a full update (and pics ) as soon as he can! Cheers again lads! Owen -
Grant and Danny both shut up NOW! Theres a time and place! Is it any good by where Beau lived? I know he was always in Brum, but i dont think Brum would be suitable! Bristol sounds ok. Im willing to travel anywhere in the country for this, i WILL be there. Grant, i can see why you want it on his bday but like Danny said, it may be easier for people to travel on a Saturday. Anyone up for having a poll? About the day, as yeah it would be nice to have it on Beau's bday, but we want a big turn out. What happened to having it in the park where the accident happened? Owen
-
If you wanna spray your forks, then go for it matey. But personally i think it would look w*nk. Especially if theres nothing else white on your bike. What wrong with the colour they are, or spray them black, to get rid of the onza down the side of them. I did that when i had my onza (good old days!) But spraying is personal prefurance, if you want to do it, then go ahead! Owen
