    What Is

    in the holidays we had rides that lasted throughout the night lol... mine was from 2pm to 7 am the next day :- i slept through out the day and night when i got back waking up the next day at 4am (Y)
  3. u wanna throw ur whole body forward body weight over the bars, so by right u should be looking at ur front wheel and not forward when u land on ur front wheel. the swtich is just a extension of the legs and the movemnt of the body to the uprigth position from the leaned over position... which makes the switch easy, as u have already put loads of effort into getting ur body weigth over.. (Y) committtment and confindence are a major thing in this... does that mena u can switch it properly on a flat to flat gap?
  4. 6 months ago DEFRA were just another Government organisation. Today they are enemy No. 1 for not just Trials riders and supporters, but to all who enjoy ORGANISED off-road motorsport in the UK. Their implementation of the Single Payment Scheme to farmers and the way they have, without warning, slammed home a nail in the coffin of Trials and all off-road sport cannot be allowed to happen. This legislation WILL NOT stop those who ride off-road illegaly and without permission. They didn't care before so why should they now? What it does mean is that those who do organise events sanctioned by the landowners are being penalised as are those who attend them. It is vital that all those involved in the sport, be it rider, dealer, observer, spectator or even those local businesses such as cafes, restaurants, shops and hotels who benefit from having local Trials events make their voices heard.

Take it to work, school, college. Get your granny to sign it. ACT NOW!

  5. its cheeaper to get a new hub lol.. i got a quote from a local bearing supplier.. and they are £16 EACH!!
  6. the plan is..... meeting at pattersea park station at 9 and then leaving battersea for central london at around 11 30 12 >_< tim and stphen are only meeting us at 11...
  7. i would go for both? but since its a party i am guessing it would probably end quite late? anyone staying over catching first train back sunday morning?
  8. well simply since the images are produced on photosensitive material then it has to be photography, because thats what it says in the dictionary. photography is also an art, which includes distortion and the word where images are mixed together. so there isnt really a reason why his work should not be considered as photography.
  9. yup yup will be there :- wont be too big a ride
  10. There is one on the ViZ site if ur interested?
  11. well said... :P but lets take the seriousness away now... its meant to be a funny topic... :P

  14. anyone up for it? me and simon coming and tim hopefully.. :P would defo be there this time.. :"> thanksss
  15. olly can u make the chain a link shorter and pull ur wheel back at all? the frame loks sweet... it does need a higher bb though.. doesnt look too high to be honest... the frame has a kinda "v" shaped look.. is it just me or is that rotor the same one as on the viz site... :">

    .e

    has anyone been looking at the parts?? new forks look special. :P
  17. just spoke to matt on the phone... and they were at a party last night.. one of his mates posted that so just to clear things up a little.. he hasnt cracked his frame.. there is another post by the guy in the promo video section... i am sure there would be some sorting out to do
  18. cant come now :( maggies gone pop... sorry guyss...
  19. me and tim so far... simon apparently should be down around 2 anyopne else coming? hopefully not too big a ride... more for the locals :blink: see u guys there... 11 at the closed off area in the middle
  20. my best buy since http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Kits.aspx?ModelID=6162 seemed to be lasting longer then troy lee ones... and i have 2 pairs :D:S :)
  21. if this impresses me i will burn ur house down :) the bike makes everything look smaller then it actually is :D which made the video a tiny bit less impressive, but becos i have seen the stuff in real life... i might be feeling abit more sick the the rest of u guys :o
  22. well firstly i dont think height should be considered as a limitation. i think so long as u can set up a bike so that it feels comfortable, i.e like having short stems on a long bike to give u the same reach as u would have on a shorter frame, then the longer bike would give u a bigger advantage because ur bike would be able to get over more things. would be worth moving to a longer bike, but weight wise they are heavier... which would be the only downside for me... i have gotten kidna used to it though ;)
  23. i thought it was showing that u fell into a seating position on the bench :D lol.. if u look closely i think his shoe kinda disappears lol. ;) bet thats bad :D
  24. The ride was good for how large it was (Y) apart from getting chucked off striaght away after getting to st puals i think it was pretty decent :( huge stuff goin on from damian or was it dean? (one who came with adam and dave) and from dave marshall who just needs to disappear :P lol... Matt staples.... as always.. :unsure: :P had a great time.. knowing/getting to know most of the people that turned up was very rewarding indeeed
  25. i play snooker, and do yoyoing :">
