seriously impressed by how big you are going dude. seriously disgusting to think how we were on par for a while and then booooooost off you go. i still think the riding is a little mundane though. i know its probably becoming boring for you hearing it, but id like to see you mixing up stuff that is more than a single move would be cool, although finding things where you can go that big all the time would probably not happen. either way keep it up. good to see someone still pushing the "go big" attitude

really?? dont remember looking anything like the guy. I know im a bit dumb lookin haha

Isn't the volume of a tube (pi x r^2)/4 times length not pi x (d/2)^2 times length Edit: it's cool I'm a noob. I get a volume of 0.00495 m3 and density or air is 1.22kg/m3 so mass of air in the tire would work out to be 6grams?? Your calc was a little long winded. I agree with the majority though...really something you'd even consider? Don't you have other activities in your life other than trials??

hey man, ive just replied to you! Id be up for it when im nae injured!

Overall, id just like to be known for have being half decent on bike, whilst having fun doing so. things in particular id like to be able to learn before I slow the amount of riding i do. I dont think ill ever quit (ive been close before, but couldnt bring myself to do it): 360's, fakie manuals, fakie nose rolls (yes ross....i did actually write this) oh and id like not to be injured for once. Frikken drunken antics leading to fractured knuckle...mmmm

niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice. now get back on your street bike

if i were ever going to buy another long bike...this'd be it. but without the orange bits if thats possible

i am certainly a convert from high bb frames, however I have gone completely the opposite (long / high bb to short / low bb) and I have never been happier. I have NEVER had the basic "style" that ali is talking about, and unfortunately i think my TGS style shows in my riding on the inspired. however it is a little bad that all the companies are doing this high bb thing, with no real alternatives for those who want a long, low bb bike. i must admit though - for competition / tgs type trials, a high bb bike works better. IMHO. i see where ali is coming from and it annoys me that I dont have the style. One day. ONE DAY

hopefully tom reads this: can we get rid of this stupid lens please dude? it looks shocking on the video. The quality is so awesome, and the riding is big and its good to see he is still going after all these years, but its all ruined by this terrible lens. sorry to be brutally honest man. just needed to get this said haha

ahhhh fair enough. im no rich enough for that.

hey Rusevelt, there is HD available by going to the vimeo page and watching it there. Just seems that when you embed the video they do not let you have the HD quality on there....randomly. Anyway, cheers for comments boys, appreciated.

Another wee update on the blog - some crashes in there for all you sinister peeps. HD is available by clicking the little HD and going to the vimeo page. Misconceptions

Practice Makes Perfect(ish) - another wee video update on the blog.. Misconceptions

i very much like this. love the mahooosive hop gap to manual, but more enjoyed that you did the whole manual and then nearly cased it off the end of the wall haha. jealous of your spins too. one day ill be able to do spinny stuff. ONE DAY!!!

do what you feel is right gary? no-one else can tell you how you will feel on something like that...got any old bars you dont want / really need? cut them down first and see how you feel on them, then if you feel better on smaller bars cut your expensive bars down, if you feel happier at 720, then leave them at that and put your expensive bars back on? you have millions of spare parts. on a plus note...thinner bars = less weight you big homo

aberdeen is worth a visit for street as well. although a little closer to you is elgin which has some decent street riding (enough for a day i would say). sorry to disagree with some of the boys up there, but inverness is sh*t for street. i havent ridden these rocks down under the bridge.

cheers for the comments gents. appreciated

how about a platform that people can practice trackstanding on? learn some basics before going mental?

He doesnt really put as much effort in as he could be if you ask me....
