Jonny Jones

I recon im gonna go now haha, 10min decision lol. 4 some reason, wet rides turn out good? Plus I can interview people, if yall dont mind :$ J.

I really want to come, cos i would like to interview as many riders as possible about certain aspects of the sport for a uni project.. but if its pissing it down in the morning then I wont come up. Apparently the rain is going to start around 11/12pm according to teletext and the bbc site just says light showers.. so I dunno. Jonny.

Just an update, ive looked through all my footage and non of it is usable. Im very annoyed but its partly my fault. I was using a large camera from Uni and I thought everything was in focus (looked like it on the lcd screen on the camera) but upon capturing it today, it was all blurry, very soft and so looked bad. I did take my camera but I took a friend with me to use it and he kind of half-heartedly filmed for me, so the footage is plain boring. Basically theres not going to be any coverage of the show in my DVD. Onza are gonna make a DVD of the event as they had people filming on the arena floor (we werent allowed how tight is that) so if you're really wanting to see what the show was like keep an eye out for Onza's efforts. Soz people Jonny.

I was there filming - with the dude from Trash Zen, really nice guy! The footage will be in my DVD. Im gonna try and get most of the editing done next week so it shouldnt be too long now people. Jonny.

As most people know I would like: - £16k +/- J.

< > I dont think they weighed that much. Also, they are quite reliable. True there were issues to start with, but most owners have made sure any faulty parts have been replaced with new ones. If you look after them they run like any car these days. Some even have them as daily driver cars, to and from work etc.</ > My fav pic from the night: J.

Awesome. I saw the show few years back and I was blown away. Ryan Leech was invited to tour with them, but turned it down due to other commitments and the fact he was married and busy with doing his own demos. J.

That clip (I did it at 6am in the morning, took about 30mins) was just to try and justify our Uni project - Documentary on the UK DeLorean ownership scene, the project needs work but hopefully we'll be shooting it for the rest of this year. Awesome photos! Yeah I think they head to the factory or something once a year? Something like that. Yeah pretty surreal seeing all those DeLoreans all in one place. For sure some people think they are horrible hehe which is fair enough, ive just got an utter soft spot for them! Give it a few years and I'll turn up to a ride in mine hehe! J.

Theres a lot of fakes on ebay. One has been listed on there for months, and yet apparently somebody bought it ages ago? I dunno lol, delorean.co.uk if you want one J.

Last night myself and two Uni mates went to Lex Records 5th Birthday Party in London. Basically an artist on the label 'Boom Bip' is collaborating with the head dude from the Super Furry Animals and their project is called 'DeLorean' - songs based on the life of John DeLorean. Its gonna be out early next year on EMI. Anyway, to celebrate, they got 4 D's from the UK Owners Club down and we were there to film. Heres some shots I got. I also showed this in a presentation at Uni this afternoon. http://www.trialmedia.co.uk/Lex.mov - 3mb. Jonny.

Shocking to hear that! Hope he pulls through!!! Jonny.

I got my copy after a short wait (it is from CA lol). If im honest, anybody who is interested in starting Trials and watches this, they will turn it off after the first 5mins. Im sorry if im being arsehole-like about it, but I didn't like it... at all! Ive not yet checked the extras out, but its way too slow paced, some shots are nice, but its so bloody boring! I found myself just flicking through chapters, head in hand. I think I just prefer something more fast-paced. Obviously im probably one of only a few people who doesn't like it and LOADS will love it. The only criticism is that its too slow and theres too much black video, you dont pay for black video, sorry. Jonny.

Thats his section from Cranked 5. Well nice love it. J.

The more money you spend, the better camera you will have. If its for uni, get the HC1. Also, dont bother with Jessops. creativevideo.co.uk I got my camera from there! I have the HVR-A1E and I went to their showroom in Warwick. AMAZING place, staff know everything and they even lined up loads of cameras just for me to look at, nobody else was due to come in, the effort they went in to, I bought the camera there and then! Bought a tripod, large capacity battery, headphones and polarizing lens. Hope this has helped dude! Jonny.

Hehe que Simon Love you mate hehe! Its great more shops are coming onto the scene offering riders choice of where to spend their disposable income, but I think a nicely designed site works wonders too (yes Jonny so sort your site out you hypocrit!).. didnt like the design and layout, thats it though, best of luck Fred! J.

Yeah Council funding is prob more realistic... but then there was meant to be a park being built near the sk8 park in Woking and nothing happened, even after Adrian Jordan and co's hard work on meeting with them and sharing ideas and designs. Ive said to people as soon as I have around a million pounds haha id invest in a warehouse and build a park. Whats the likeliness of that happening though! J.

Id love to be able to sidehop high, its one of my biggest weaknesses. I think some of it is down to the weight of my bike... but im not light (12 stone ish) so if i go lighter things are gonna break. Well impressive how high people can get, i think i need to take a leaf out of Tricks and Stunts book and practice practice practice. Hope you get where you want to get to Dave! J.

Yea thought Dirt was wicked hehe! Saw it a few years back on VHS a mate found in a Charity shop. The rest of the DVD... dear o dear. Im guessing people will agree, the graphics and sound effects were ace... but why did they use so much damn black and white? They'll get it right eventually. The meaning of MTBing? Its free so I guess we cant complain too much! J.

YES! J.

I dont want to sound mean and I fully appreciate the effort the dude has gone into, but that trailer did nothing for me, apart from the smooth slo-mo's rather than the flickery interlaced ones you get from time to time. It just didn't make me want to buy it. God im an arsehole haha! Just my silly opinion though. Best of luck with it though! Im interested in seeing more trailers! Jonny.

You dont need an NUJ card dude. I have 2 passes in front of me here. You just need a business card of who u are representing and some kinda ID im sure, drivers licence should do. J.

Ive subscribed to MBUK for years. Like many others it got me into Trials (apart from a random person I saw hopping on his back wheel one day back in 1998 that got me hooked lol). Mart and Mart + others have done loads and loads for the sport and I thank them. The magazine as a whole does have 'Corporate Mainstream' etched into it in my opinion (unlike any 4130 publication), if you get what I mean. Stupid space filling and other bollox included (who cares whats on the iPod this month - but cud this be summot to do with corporate sponsors?) just doesn't need to be in there imo. However, theres ALWAYS something in it that is interesting to read. I agree there should be more Trials in it but we do need to somehow make it look way cooler than it is... think about it, most of the general public have never seen Trials, hence why we get such huge audiences in London. So if we make it more attractive to more people it WILL get more coverage and the general public will become aware.. or, more aware of its existance. I ride/film trials cos i think its bloody creative and its just damn good fun and so if all these amazing points can get through to more people (perhaps through more dvd releases and other media interests like crazy articles where trials is being used in an unusual situation/location) then the sport will grow, more people will be involved, bikes will evolve even further, bike shops will be trading even better and everybody will be happier... most of all it WILL be the most progressive sport, we might even see a trials version of events like the Back Yard Jam... recycle, the possibilities are endless lol Ride how you want, what you want (within reason lol) wearing what you want, we just need to make it somehow more attractive, thinking outside the box rather than what Chris was saying about the highest sidehop or tap (although this is what floats some people's boats). This way we can also pay tribute to DJ in the best possible way, by having even more fun doing what we love best! Also, sorry if i've spoken out of line, purely my opinions :$ Jonny.

DAMN! Ive just ordered my copy! Looks awe-some. Ive been talking to Mike Bentham (former Brisa rider if you remember) and he's mates with Desmond Lee, said its taken him 3 years to make! Cant begin to imagine how much this has cost to make! What a leg-end! Jonny.

Thoroughly enjoyed that! A Summer of fun and nothing less! Loved that one hander on the narrow rail thingy, harder than it looks im sure! Wicked video, top job! Jonny.

A gate?... How the f**k do you HOOK a gate?! You are one sick man! People like you should be made illigal for making us all feel so crap at riding... or is that just me haha! I recon you should sue Deng for your ankle injury (joke!) lol, MASSIVE riding all round awesomeness! J.
