That's funny, that's the exact same thing I said to Mark earlier. danny Can you pin point the exact moment when we became "superior"? so far from what I can see is that we have put across our points in a fairly adult manor with questions about your remarks and what we have had back is abuse about Mark having a smelly nose, my love life being questioned and no answers to our questions. Just because we can put our points across doesn't make us superior.

Firstly, yes I am arguing on a forum with a 20 year old, now your on a forum arguing with a 27 year old but somehow because I am slightly older I am the one in the wrong. Mark is a friend much like you have friends. If you were out getting pissed (seems to be suggested that's what I should be doing) and some twat came and called you out, you would like to think your friends would stick up for you. Because it's on-line doesn't mean it's brown nosing. Ross seems to make trials interesting in the same way that that it's interesting to see politicians fall on their arse when being questions by the public on tv. Whats tartybikes got to do with the price of fish?

dodging the point..........yet again

If I have to spell out EVERY definition of every word I mean just because you can't/wont answer my questions we are going to be here all night you again seem to have an unhealthy interest in my love life

I must admit some responses are amusing me too

So what you are saying is that my opinion is wrong?

Yeah probably, are you implying that I should be ashamed? Embarrassed? Perhaps my lack of interest in dating makes me less of a person? It is also my opinion that gravity doesn't exist (can you see where I am going with this?).

cool sorry, I misread that. I have every right to question you, that's how I make decisions in life, I question things that are put to me and if they hold true then sweet, I'll buy/go/do the thing that was put to me, if they don't hold true, I'll give it a wide birth. Are you saying scientists can't question things, what makes you so great that you can't possibly be questioned? If you are so concerned about me having a girlfriend/making family plans for the future I'll send you updates of my future love life shall I?

I didn't know I still lived at my parents? You must have either missed my point or forgot to reply to it. Are you saying I don't have any right to question anyone? I presume you have kids judging by you response? I heard it's good to shake babies to make them shut up if they are crying, you can't question that because it's an opinion.

I'm 27. So as I said in my post above, you would say that the people out there who believe the earth is flat, you would say their opinion is correct? How about Religion, some people's opinion that Jesus is the true saviour and is the son of God, by your logic they can't be wrong. What's with the rush of having a family? What's that actually got to do with anything?

An opinion can be wrong. You must not have great friends if they always try and put you down.

some people's opinion is that the earth is flat, but yeah, it's their opinion so can't be wrong at all.

Believe it or not I am not riding for the money, sure I could try and look for every last sponsor I could, I could get some lessons on making the most out of on-line videos, but I am just not that interested. I make enough to live and that makes me happy. Also, you can't come barging in, express some views which are un-educated and then say you don't want to be involved, even if you don't answer again you have made yourself involved

what level is that? Seems you can't some up with a sensible answer so are backing out rather than ending the argument by admitting you were perhaps......wrong?

what's age got to do with anything? I don't know how old you are but you make internet videos of COD, not my cup of tea but whatever, no doubt if someone had a go at you on the internet about it you would feel the need to defend what you do. I happen to make a living from riding bikes and I also happen to get rather a lot of abuse from Ross, he'll probably say "its just joshing, take a chill pill" or something along those lines but why should I have to put up with it? It's also funny how the people who say this place has fallen apart are also the same people who usually cause the issues in the first place.

depends what you mean by silly, I was 100% confident with my skills, but unfortunately other people were not.

but that's known to be wrong in the past

If you had done them for the past 12 years you would have seen me there. Anyway, since when did you have to enter comps to be considered a trials rider?

Ben's crash!!

that was Adam Moorewood, that kid has some serious skills! The event was a great success I think, the atmosphere was great, riders seemed to be feeding off each other which is great to see. The weather sucked but I didn't care and neither did all the people who came and had a go themselves, or watched, thanks for coming along! The course itself was pretty nuts, everything was pretty big, I am surprised health and safety let Redbull use the location, but I am glad they did! As Mark said, the level of riding by the people riding the Inspireds was very high! Martyn said that he felt a bit un-needed as everyone was already pretty good. It was nuts seeing the progression throughout the night too. More next year?

Yeah LOYD! Sweet vid, certainly brings back lots of good memories of a beast of a trip! Even if you were not on the trip, it should show all the good banter that went on as well as some cool riding.

its always best to grind with the tyre on, if you take it off, you'll cover your rim in tyre gunk and ruin the grind.

clutch at them some more why don't you

we should go climb (well, boulder) sometime

was interesting watching him on freecaster recently, he'll go far if he doesn't keep on falling off in comps, but that's the way the cooky crumbles if you are pushing yourself. Shame he has to ride that fugly bike though.
