Seriously?!

Tend to not think about anything except what I'm doing. Get a kind of total focus thing going on where I'm just looking at where I'm going and concentrating on doing whatever it is I'm trying. The actual movement is natural, that is I don't think about how to do it, I just concentrate on doing it. I think.

You only had it for a couple of weeks!! Silly boy...

The spray, Luke, the spray! Gosh...

Maaayyyybbbbeee... will see closer to the time. Think I may be somewhere near Switzerland around this time though...

A couple of years back I went with a place called Action Outdoors and I would highly recommend taking a look. Basically it's a French company which was set up to supply their Olympic/competition team training throughout the season. They've now branched out to allow tourists to use the facilities and offer a completely inclusive package at really good prices. Included in our package which cost about £420 was a weeks accomodation which was 4 people to a room in bunks but all really clean and tidy. Two rooms (up to 8 people) sharing a bathroom/shower. You also get 3 all you can eat meals a day (really good food) together with snacks twice a day. The price also included board and boot use for the whole stay, lift passes for the whole valley in which we were in and 5 days of lessons given by really nice guys catering for all levels from absolute beginners to seasoned boarders. Finally, the price included a coach from London, and you could upgrade to a flight for an extra £50 or something. All in it was a wicked holiday and really well set out. If you use the lessons (which you don't have to), it's easy to switch between groups and you basically do what you want. Anyway, worth a look .

I'm really quite tempted by a Lite Disc to replace my Monty Pr... How do you find the Echo on natural?

Will be tuning in to Al Jazeera to check it out. Will you be on before or after the latest footage of Osama Bin Laden in his cave?

Huh? Edit: For anyone who missed it (like me) it's on Channel 4's Free Catchup service.

As far as the complete bikes are concerned they offer excellent value for money and are excellent bases to both learn on and upgrade in the future. Their components and 'Pro' models are also excellent quality and tend to be well thought out. It all depends what sort/size of bike you're after really and also how much you want to spend.

Sweet pictures Mike, always love seeing your photos! Was also good to see you again yesterday, all the best dude.

Haven't seen them. What is it? Do you mean Lynx 3 or is that something different?

To be honest I'm with Dr Nick here... the best (only?) way to properly work the muscles used for trials, in a way that will make them better for trials riding (not just make them bigger), is to ride trials. This thread is mainly for people going to the gym to bulk up, which is bad for trials. What you need to do is explosive power training, which gyms really can't provide... The weather's nice. Get outside and ride instead of wanting to stay inside with a bunch of sweaty guys looking at each other! Disclaimer: I'm not really one to talk- I didn't do PE past the compulsory stage at school and have never stepped foot inside a gym or worked out... however, with the help of a frankly f****d up metabolism, that hasn't stopped me being quite a muscly springy b*****d just from riding.

Man whore, sir, man whore.

Hope not Didn't see it but I'll take a stab in the dark, if I may. 'Bear' finds himself in 'one of the most dangerous environments in the world' where 'you could die in less than 12 hours' if you aren't him. He then pretends to trek for hundreds of miles carrying only his little bumbag with about half a litre of water. He urinates on himself/his clothes for some reason before killing and eating some poor little creatures and maybe even makes a bivvy bag from an elephants scrotum. He then finds himself having to swim through a shark infested pool with lasers attached to their friggin' heads (in which he very nearly dies, twice, even though his cameraman, who's with him at all times, appears completely safe)... Actually, that raises the question of who his cameraman is who never has any problems while 'Bear' is freezing, starving, suffering dehydration, climbing an impossible ravine (often all at once)... I think it may be Fatty Mears.

What is it with everyone making their bikes look like Koxx's?! Does look nice though...

Where did you go Jonny?! I saw you at the start and then not at all for the rest of the day! It made me !

Good shizzle! Get that Boxx sorted now so you can ride!!

Cool beans Were they taken on a camera phone?!

Harsh, man, harsh...

Epic. Fail. Sorry Natalie but had to report this to get it closed. This is your first post on the forum and as such you could quite easily be a scammer trying to rip people off, hence why new members aren't allowed to buy or sell things in this section.

Where does the yellow marker suddenly appear from?! Not there... There!!

Irn Bru, only option for me

That first one makes that wall look soooo big! And hahahaha at Fred's face on that gap!!

You what?
