  1. from the horses mouth...so to speak http://gillescoustellier.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=239:my-letter-to-justify-my-abandonment-at-the-first-uci-world-cup-in-heubach&catid=1:les-news-de-gilles-coustellier&Itemid=70
  2. looking at the photo dave, i'd say the hairline looks odd on the right hand side. I would have thought it should be symmetrical (i know our faces arent ever symmetrical before anyone says), but thats what stood out to me.
  3. Jack, Another suggestion that might be sweet. Whats the chance of a big projector with a DVD player / laptop attached so we can get some booze (for those 18+), some appletisers (for those 17 and under) and videos on the go one evening? 'RadFest Movie Night' - Hosted by Jack Meek :-p
  4. I certainly am a wee street wannabe now Gee. I couldnt keep up with all these up and comers so i threw the toys out the pram and went street . I am actually hoping to get down to hull at somepoint for a ride, so hopefully you boys will be around for a beast about.
  5. #waybackwednesdays on misconceptions blog Its been 6 years since we started the Scottish Muckers Videos, and while it has been a while since we last made a video, I thought i'd reminisce on the years gone by and all the fun times we had / have on rides. big post with 11 videos over on the blog; http://mis-conceptions.blogspot.co.uk Comments welcome

  7. While i agree with you to an extent mike, there is a little something mentally (beyond the injury thing) in the top riders that sets them out from the bog standard like you or I
  8. Jack, Sounds a little nit-picky, but might be nice to have a wee section on how to get there. I.e. nearest airport / train station / local towns and amenities etc i am unsure on how I am getting there yet, so as a 'just in case' scenario might be good to have that info. ta ben
  9. I think you havent lost it graeme because youve put on about 4 tonnes of muscle since you last rode that bike. I reckon the curtis probably feels light to you boys haha
  10. When the scooter gives him a bash in the leg at the end LOL. oh how I laughed
  11. Pompey and London....certainly on my list of places to ride / ride again ASAP. brilliant video guys. loved it
  12. Looking sweet towlie. Actually looks like a really decent build
  13. Video (and a few other clips below that) can be seen on the blog: http://mis-conceptions.blogspot.co.uk
  14. Just updated my blog with a video...with music! My first since GETCreative Link in signature
  15. black bars and black saddle and you'd be onto a winner if you ask me. looks good though
  16. i think its more 'off' the car than 'over' it? he doesnt look high enough to be 180'ing over it either (as his body position suggests he is doing)
  17. 25 raw seconds of me, in HD, from my ride on Tuesday night... God Bless BST and extra daylight... http://mis-conceptions..blogspot.co.uk
  18. Its a cool picture, but there is a little too much going on in the photo for my liking. Euan doesnt stand out well enough in the photo.
  19. New blog update with a video from Ross McArthur, riding his new custom designed 'Archive' 24" Steel steed from Marinobike you should probably go and watch it... http://mis-conceptions.blogspot.co.uk
  20. haha matt, we have a big indoor park up here that I want to play with. Cheers for all the recommendations guys, trying to keep the weight / budget down as its for a second bike, but I will keep my eyes open and look for some bargains. thanks boys
  21. I really liked that video man. I loved the lines you pulled at the station in southampton, and the big gap you did slow mo was nice as well. impressed
  22. I have been on a 24 for a wee while now using DMR moto RT's as my tyre of choice. I am going to be building up a brakeless beast for some skateparking / trialsing around, so looking at the possibility of some new tyres. I'd opt for the moto's again, but thought id see what you monkeys might advise? Other options ive considered / seen include; Holyrollers - felt that the 2.4 was a bit wide Tioga Powerblock - superslick, only come in 2.1 max (that i can find), is that a bit thin? Seem to be v. light though Schwalbe crazy bob - very heavy tyre, but tread looks ok? Moto Diggers - not great tread for park use? too grippy? Any other recommendations welcome, but justify it if you do give one ta ben
  23. any maggie I have ever used with a 4-finger lever feels disgusting. 2 fingers all the way
  24. Oh sorry. i get it now...i just know you as bearded Matt..sorry man
