  1. Yeah there's quite a few in Blackpool, loads do ride the lights every year. Frame has just arrived today, I planned on having it painted but it's come and looks to only have been done recently. Blue with a gold speck, looks pimptastic!
  2. I used to use my old 29er to do the school run with my eldest son in a morning, 3 mile round trip. Was hard work as mostly downhill going which drained my legs and then pedalling back up was a killer! Hopefully get a disc brake on this one though to make the downhills a bit more bareable! Got a pimped maggy louise sat doing nothing in my spares box!
  3. Bagged a 29er unicycle frame off Ebay earlier for just over a tenner (around £80 new). Can't wait to build it up and get back on one wheel!
  4. White import SRi local to me
  5. "I'm still trying to find my limits" Seriously Ben, your vids are immense. The speed you were hitting most of those lines at amazed me though my favourite was the one around 0:57.
  6. Nothing quite like a guaranteed MOT pass "you are keeping it aren't you?" "yep" "right, drop it in Wednesday!"
  7. f**k me, bring back that Russian bellend spamming the shit out of the forum!
  8. Amateur mistake filming in portrait...
  9. You need some level of equipment to balance your body out. You need access to a pullup bar/gymnastic rings to do pullups from and most people have a set of parallette bars in one form or another. The main ideal is the use of your bodyweight as resistance although lots use additional weight as their strength progresses. Mostly done unweighted though as you can modify most exercises to increase the difficulty and load. I occasionally add weight but most of the time 15 stone is more than enough!
  10. So, organising my first calisthenics class to teach in a few weeks. Got 9 or 10 people interested and I'm already shitting myself massively! Hoping to build some interest and get more locals into it.
  11. Tight this month but if you've still got it in a few weeks I might be able to find some ££
  12. Roughly how much are you after?
  13. Yup, get yourself a copy of this https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B000683VSO/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_cJy.ybQMQSR5E then get practicing. It's a bit oldskool now but the fundamentals are all the same! (and the comedy is class)
  14. Wow, actually just noticed your bars. They're huge, maybe worth trying some oldskool Zoo bars if you can get a set!
  15. Found it here He's 5'5" and ran a 150x30° but with super low risers.
  16. Not sure if he's still about but might be worth tapping up @dezmtberas he's a short arse who also rode an Austin. Will try to find a thread with his build as that was super cramped when I had a ride on it!
  17. Not really any manuals but Tartybikes have some good videos showing a few various things
  18. Did my CBT last October but haven't had the time or money to do anything else yet so the other night I booked my theory test for next month. Gonna have some spare cash available after next month so I can sort out my direct access over the Summer hopefully
  19. CX, hardtail, 4play and Rockman stock and occasionally ride none of them
