I'll come. It better be good though. Get Alex out...

Posted for a good friend of mine (Y)
-
He wasn't. He was trackstanding in the middle of a crowded area really early in the morning. He seemed pretty inconsiderate imo.

I 100% agree with Fishwog (Y) And Scooters suck. You can't have anyone on the back. They sound like hairdryers. You get ripped by anyone and everyone at EVERY opportunity. Most look pretty shit and don't go fast. They're not comfortable compared to a car etc etc. If I were to get a scooter, well a 50cc job, it's be an Aprilia Rs50. If not. I'm just saving for my car. Should have £2.5k in't bank for that by the time i'm 17, so it's all good. I'd just save my money for that.

Lol Someone walked infront of him on the worlds day and he called them a 'b*****d'. That gave me the impression he was a big of a cock with his head up his own arse.

Rich 4 the win

Hmm. I'm interested too actually. I would like something like that on the new website I'm doing for someone. Also. Is anyone handy with Flash? I want some text fading in and out over an image. Would be easy if I knew how (Y) Nick

Hahaha. I wouldn't do that massive drop because I think drops are pointless, wreck your bike, and have very little skill involved. For f**ks sake Lee. Don't cry about all this. I was only saying, and agreeing with another person, that at times, in my opinion, you don't look to be particularly controlled. At others you seem to have everything perfect. That's all. Some people these days. FFS PS: I noticed how you didn't quote the first point I was forced to make about going off the bench. Or were you meant to do that? Hah.
-
For f**ks sake. Does everyone have to say 'imo' or 'in my opinon...' before they write a post nowadays? Yes. I have the balls to do some of that. I don't recall saying I was or am better or have more or less balls to do stuff like that? Do you? I'm merely saying at points, in my f**king-opinion, he looked sketchy. A few people have said it in the topic, so why don't you make it 'personal' and quote their posts as-well as mine? One good example for you f**king nit-pickers, 1 minute 19 seconds. I'm pretty sure he didn't mean to hit the bottom part of the bench when hopping off, do you? Also, in the Drop at 1.30. I know it's massive, but there wasn't any extension of legs or compression, just a f**king harsh landing. 2.46, he nearly hit the wall with his front wheel when dismounting, shows a lack of balance? For f**ks sake. I'm not saying he's not a good rider. He is. I just think, in MY OPINION, he looks sketchy when he goes big. It's my opinion. You f**kers who think you can change someone's opinion are wrong.
-
That would be why it was my opinion, and not yours? It looked stetchy at times to me, if didn't to you? What's your point? They're opinions dude.
-
Well mine should be here Monday so Wayne, we'll meet next week for a Bradford ride yeah? And I'll tell you lot how good I think it is etc. Hopefully, it'll stop it bending when I'm on backwheel and give it more support! Laters..
-
Big stuff but some things seemed a tad uncontrolled. Me and Rich were having a talk about it all. All the stuff's big, but sketchy at times. Music didn't fit the video and the transitions were a bit dodgy. I'd just try do the stuff you did then, but more controlled, or take a little step back or something. Cool vid newho. Nick.

Hey Boon. I'm ordering this one, for my left ankle too. I ruptured a tendon a while back and it just keeps rolling 24/7! Until I can get some physio treatment, again, from someone who'll make it better, I'm getting: http://www.physiosupplies.com/cgi-bin/sh00...tml%23a101#a101 I know it's expensive but I've been told by numerous people it's worth it. It keeps your ankle perfectly straight, and protects it from knocks from the crank arm etc. Might be something to think about. Hope I helped. Nick :blink:

It's ok I guess. However, my criticisms are that the content is very unprofessional, there are too many 'advert' spacers, and that it lacks proper design and interaction. Background and banner background colours don't match, and the outline looks pretty wank. It's ok for a start, but try and go on other websites, and aspire to their design features. Nick.

Hah wtf where were you hiding. Everyone had cameras! Goddard's obviously pissed of everyone's but loadsa people had them, especially at the railway bit (Y) I had mine out, Carls, Judders, Porters (i thinkl) Wayne and Alex had one! Then there's people I didn't talk to lots hehe. Loads of f**king ace people! Really good ride. Didn't ride too well myself, averagely really. Fatmike snapped his mech hanger lol, and got two punctures in't front I think. Alex Richardson was running a 26inch tube in his 24 bike i think. He was moaning about it a lot haha. Anyway. Wicked ride. Got sunburn, got home at like 9.25, after a pretty quick and enjoyable journey home to be honest. Was talking with Alex about random shit all the time. Some hot chick was playing games with us too. Phwoar. :P
-
I've had exactly the same thing happen to me. Simon said the same thing to me too. Just one ankle though. It's shit isn't it.
-
Hah I best get a bleed on my brake (Y)
-
10. Definately (Y) We'll be there around then (Y) You can help sort my brake haha.
-
Sorry Mr. Cool guy. I'll try and be non-apprichiative? And I'm merely being happy, as i'm really looking forwards to tomorrow. Who's butt f**ked you without lube?

You need to change the visited links in the css as it shows up purple once you've been there and it's really hard to read on that background. Simple site but it's tidy. Nothing particularly complex in it, but like I said, tidy, aesthetically pleasing and easy to navigate around Nick (Y)
-
Haha. Legend. I can't wait. What do i need to bring? Cameras, Hoody (f**k it's at my mates house), erm Food for McDonalds, Allen Key tool and Shin Pads/Helmet. Then obviously Bike. Can't wait boys and girls. My brake needs re-bleeding too though. I've got some: I think I should of bought brake oil shouldn't I? Nick (Y)

I'll bring my Mini DV Camcorder :-
-
You got a camera? If not i'll bring mine and you can film using that, then i'll give the tape to Mike for the Roadtrip video (Y) My bike's ok now, need to service my maggie though. Had a nice tutorial from Markyboy for it, the piston's retracting really slowly but only like an hour into a ride. It's fine when I first get on it! Stem should of been sent by DEZ today - to you. :-

http://www.trashzen.com/ gives you good tutorials and explains trials techniques pretty well. Probably the most informative trials site out there (Y)
