fairly recent, though i have had my mop cut since then

sweet vid Jack! Really good watch! You're a bit mental sometimes!

Well, not by me they wont, haha. But to be fair, its a UK forum, so the replies are likely to be from riders who know each other, people like watching videos from all over the world, but unless they are ground breaking, they're not going to get that many comments.

That vid was good (well the first half anyway) but i had to stop watching it at 1:57. He measured the wall then sidehopped it on and off (presumably) then cut the clip. so did you make it? i guess not! why, why, why do people still do this. Theres your answer to why this hasn't got many comments Andrew

Great vid! really enjoyed watching that, some nice lines in there! Thats a really smart bike you've got there! Andrew

let me know when ur going riding next, i might tag along

you can apply some vinyls to curved surfaces by stretching them with a soap solution underneath, think theres a few videos on youtube on how to do it

which one? there have been various differnt models over the last 8 or 9 years or so...

nearest big place to it is manchester

im guessing its mirroed as the brake lines are the wrong way round for those continental people. But it looks awesome! really, really neat design, love it!

hmmm......

nah its a new idea to ride with a 24" rear wheel

Pat and myself are going, hope to see lots there! Andrew

whatever LOL! And its now that im wondering why i went to a uni with around 2-3 lads for every lass...

Nice vid ryan! congrats on the national series! which quarry is that?

Looks like a really great promotion for trials! Top job!

haha, then ther'd only ever be one rider entering! Respect, those lines are awesome, dont really know what else to say! madness!

lol?????

good ride lads! couldn't have asked for better weather! Who was taking those pictures?

I'm all for UCI, was really looking forward to riding a UCI trial this weekend, but if you look back, the attendances have only gone down ever since the club became UCI, maybe only the top 3 routes should be UCI so as not to 'scare' the younger riders off. Every club needs a lot of young up and coming riders.

Its a bit of a circle really, to get bigger ie. more prestigous venues, more spectators, your going to need bigger sponsors, but they're not going to put there money in unless there are a lot of riders and therefore more competition and a higher standard of riding and a high general interest. But the riders aren't interested in being involved unless the comps become like this. So nothing is ever going to change!

Ok, so on the street side its definitely improved. You've just told me that you class it as a sport, but where's the sport if theres no competition? The competition scene should be the pinnacle of the sport, and there are some amazingly talented riders in this country, but not enough of them ride competitions, so its never going to improve. A bigger competition scene would make the sport better know in the public eye and the street side would grow even more. Or do people want trials to be an "underground" sport that is relatively unheard of, with the boundaries being limited by internet videos and forums?? Andrew

do you class trials as a sport OBM?

I value your opinion, but its easy to say how you want the comp scene to be, but its never going to improve if we don't have enough riders! I've heard people talking about how trials has grown; but, if anything, its gone downhill.
