Going to bump this up....here is another little update - http://mis-conceptions.blogspot.co.uk

Sam your bail on the half cab makes me really chuckle every time. I think its cos your hop higher than gilles can side hop, but literally travel no distance! Makes my day

Considering the length of time here for making a video I am pretty sure I will be editing a video for this. I'd be happy to nominate myself as a judge also should you be looking for some assistance Ben, not really sure what criteria you are looking for as a judge, maybe I'm offering as I don't think I stand a chance against the others in there haha

Looking good sausage fingers hopefully you'll be loosened up in time for fort bill

Another little update....with a female perspective of the life with a demo team... http:/mis-conceptions.blogspot.co.uk

Haha...extra touches added no infringement made

sweet riding greg....hope we can get some more stuff of you filmed soon...

Cheers man updated it

A little blog update....with the blogs first real reference to its title.... http://mis-conceptions.blogspot.co.uk

I will re-iterate this once more...."not just limited to trials, you'd find many kids the same age as you who are good people". I am generalising. There are pricks my age, there are pricks under your age, it is my opinion that there are a number of them (of all ages) who ruin it for others and cause the many rifts on here. The rifts come from the naivety of some who are unable to accept trials for its ventures into moves not considered 'pure' and vice versa.

To those who asked....by 'younger cocksure generation with less respect' - i didnt have an age range in mind. Generally i meant people younger than me, probably mid to late teens. I expect someone to be 12-13 to be immature, its people slightly older than that which I worry about.. I generalised with the age range and didnt intend it at anyone specifically, so dont start protecting your 'age group'. If you looked around the country, not just limited to trials, you'd find many kids the same age as you who are good people, but it is my belief that this number is completely outweighed by those who are pricks. I am 27, and i still like to mess about (note: alot), but, I have respect for people in general. I'd expect people in their mid teens to early 20's to have grown up a little bit more, however on here it doesn't come across this way. Many on here, I can't / won't specify anyone, just come across like kids who believe the world owes them something, and that they shouldnt have to work for anything (this includes, but is not limited too: respect, help, sponsorships, being the next big thing, being rich etc). My opinion comes from having a younger brother that took far too long to grow up, but it has finally hit him, and he realises he has responsibilities now, so much so, that he is a much nicer person to be around. I believe that if many people on this forum grew up a little bit, it'd be a nice place to be around. On the other hand, I do not frequent the forum as much anymore, the odd visit to see if there are any new videos / anything that interests me, so maybe it doesnt really matter whether things change. I don't go on massive street rides, partly due to location, partly due to the fact that a Massive group ride is sh*t for actually doing any riding. However I agree that I shouldnt force myself to speak to people, I wouldn't not speak to them, but I wouldnt rush over to introduce myself.

I think the forum is a good representation of what the UK is like....the majority seem to be nice enough people, but a younger cocksure generation is coming through that seems to have a lot less respect for anyone. I dont know if it is because I am getting that little bit older, with more life responsibilities, but I find a lot of younger folk aren't as mature as I think they should be. (It should be noted that I am generally the person who is immature / non-pc in real life) The inability of some people to communicate with at least a little clarity / empathy / temperament for others annoys me as well. We have a multi-lingual forum, and it bugs me that some of the British Citizens on here are harder to understand than the foreign people, but that also many british members will be complete pricks at the shortest notice.
