Neil Robinson is a gash heavy handed bast on a bike as well, rode with him all the time. He had zero issues with his

She's coming out with all sorts of shite saying it wasn't hers and she didn't know. Ironically her brother is banned for doping.......

Recovery that is lad. Can't beat a good swill

Oooh that on one is tasty. Do like a good hardcore hardtail

Do it lad. I've acquired a zoot for literally naff all, think it's cost me £20 for some pads, forks and headset. That's it. Proper parts bin special

I send parts out in Argento jewellery Jiffy bags. Then when wifey gets hold of it thinking it's shiny things for her, when in reality it's bike parts, an argument generally ensues. I got a message off a bloke a bit back saying it caused a right row and she accused him of cheating until he opened it

@Yorkshire Dale still has his zoot pro frame sat there doing nowt, it's uncracked and in good nick as well

Don't get me wrong, I'm faster on my 160mm travel mtb, but it's like using a sledgehammer to crack a peanut if you forgive the analogy. I got it because I'd got bored of mtb, i felt like it was taking away some of my skill and was just a case of how fast I could throw it down a hill and let the suspension do rest. I want to rediscover what I learnt all those years on a fully rigid, although this has slightly better brakes which I'm thankful for

Yes many times. Tried the Italian tune up method as well, alas, it did not work

This should be in the agony aunt thread haha. Honestly don't know wether to ride it out or chuck it in and go back to living with my old man until I can sort my own place out. I do love her but she is f**king hard to live with

My woman is being a c unit. Only person out of everybody I know who's says going for the new job is a bad thing. It's a bit less money whilst I'm training and then a shed load more than what I'm on now when I'm trained. Just got to be frugal for a bit. But she can't see past it and now I'm a selfish thoughtless b*****d for wanting to further my own career. In the new job I'll be on £40k a year in 18 months. The old one it would have took me 7 years. Pissed off to f**k

You'd be suprised at how good it actually is. It has quite a big level of grip and is very predictable. I did sherwood pines full red route on it today, and it felt decent and grippy, if a little jarry on the ride. It's like riding a rigid mtb, but rolls faster. I've been riding road bike for years so I'm used to drop bars, (mine has the chicken stick bar top levers)and if anything it teaches you more about the purer side of riding, choosing your line and being really smooth, as you don't have 160mm of travel to bail you out should you be a bit ham fisted. And it climbs awesomely. And it's low maintenance, literally needs a bit of chain lube and that's it

Doing my 1st ever cx race on Sunday on it

Ridiculous amounts of skill. Seriously hope he wipes the floor with everybody this year, wins everything in sight, and carries on being a sick Yorkshire bast

Got this on cycle to work. Went for the maiden voyage on Sunday. So much fun, never thought I'd be riding a drop bar bike through a forest/on single track

Applied for the trainee HGV driver scheme at work. Went for the assessment day last Tuesday, got the job today. Well happy

Nice to meet you today mate! Shame I can't get out Thursday night, already had other plans

In no way shape or form does this video do Jacks riding any justice. I've been lucky enough to ride with him quite a few times, and he's given me and @thinkdougie a bit of advice and a few pointers on more than one occasion. It's unreal to watch in real life, so goddam smooth. He needs the Danny Mac guy to film him, is it Robin Kitchen?

Oh dear. That's only gonna go one way with cox as your sidekick

Swapped a bmx for a zoot, literally spent naff all on it. Bought myself a tweed jacket which is rather nice

Back in the trials game. Been hankering for something to play about on for a few weeks, stupidly bought a bmx which I couldn't ride for toffee, so I traded it for a zoot with a lad who I knew was getting rid of one. My lad kept saying to me " dad, you need another trials bike so you can take me to the skate park". It has literally cost me a cup of coffee and that's it. Raided the spares box big time for it. Don't think I've seen a dual Maggie zoot before, but these inspired forks that are on are Maggie only. Some disk forks and a pro2 are what's needed

Back in the trials game. Makes me happy

Haha. I posted that on Facebook earlier

Woman. Molesting. Lush stuff. Do tell

The none vice way is just as easy. I wedge the rig as shown above under a car tyre or under the corner of my shed, and use a 24mm deep reach socket and a 4ft breaker bar on the tool. Comes off just as easy
