I was a wildlife nut, wanted to be like david attenborough.

1) random drunk person in scotland handing out £300 to a few of us who were riding...I got £20 , joe oakly got £60!! 2) Tim stedman going for a hook on a big box but hitting his front wheel on the way up sending him over the bars....Luckily he saved himself with his hands but he ended up in such a funny position, still makes me laugh thinking about it (can be seen on the bangor vid) there are probably loads including iolo, but I cant think of them now

update........... I HATE hate hate HATe haTE hate HATE being kicked off places, I hate it so much that I wont ride anywhere where I know I will get kicked off, it just makes me feel really bad.

I am suprised with all the people saying zoo............I REALLY hate their stuff, the WORST mod ever!!!! and now a big ugly nast high bb stock I also really HATE brisa, frames rode worse than peice of ear wax and were about as strong.

I agree totally I recken if they put out lots of vids like the zoo riders do then their style would be more widly used, but they didnt. The fact that craig's and neil's vids are viewd by lots seems to make everyone focus on that style, seeing ashton and akkers riding is like a breath of stylish air, completley different to what we are used to seeing, maybe being on forums is a bad thing, we need to stop watching vids and get our own styles and our own moves.........maybe.

I trust echo parts but I like "proper" biking companies like easton or raceface.

goodridge hose on maggies sucks more than a new born on its mums tits, but you already knew that didnt you

I wouldnt wear one I'd rather get a cold head and wear a helmet. If you cant stand a cold head, then a Buff is your best friend, best headwear item ever, nice and thin so it can easily go under a helmet but dam warm.

a ghost cog is where you dont have any hanger or mech, you set your chain to the shortest you can get it and then find a cog (cassettte cog etc) and stuff it between the chain along the chainstays. It keeps the tension and stays put.....well, some of the time. They have a habbit of comming out and hurting you, thsts why they arn't so popular.

I seriously CANT STAND the feel of the 05 ones, I would rather hold on to brocken glass than use on of those levers as standard. Also the 05 ones are weak, seriously weak, you can snap them in half just by pulling them (ask Iolo) Also I think the 04 ones generate more power (longer lever blade perhaps?) again ask Iolo, after he pulled his 05 lever in half he put his old 04 lever on and he was blown away with the extra power he had.

all the young riders getting better than me winds me up lol narr, seriously: Arm pump!!! Bloody thing stops me getting decent results at comps shit videos people slagging each other off on forums for no decent reason (control your self!!) not much else pisses me off, that why I love trials

f**king hell! thats raised the bar in riding skill in my book!! Bloody amazing. That wall at the start, I wouldnt even walk on it let alone ride!!

he talketh the truth I just use my table, a ruler, compass, petractor and pen. costs a lot less than computor softwear too

after riding Ash's bike with a pro 2 I reccomend getting one....Hell I am going to replace my king with one!! ( the 6 spd virsion ash )

unless you want a nice riding frame

no computors, pen and paper is all I need

I will MAKE him make it strong enough if he doesnt anyway.

I think there is one in the bike pics section. I will get a pick of mine when its done, gonna be the mostest pimpest bike ever!!!

ASHTON!!!!!

good choice I am still waiting for mine, dunno what colour to get though......probably the red one. New ones might have disk mounts in the future

not quite the same, but it might help My home drawn bikes

try ashton bikes his email addy is on his site

caustic soda wont do anything to it. I am afraid nitromores is best, not too bad really just buy loads and pour it into a tub or somthing and rest the bottom of your rim in it for a while, then turn the wheel a little bit untill the whole lots done.

get yourself the new 6spd hope trials hub (when its out) puuurfect I recken, rode one at the weekend (well, just the normal 9spd virsion) and I liked it, hopfully I will be getting one, I will then sell one of my kings (which are also excellent, had one for 5 years with little done to it!)

I doubt I would ride if I didnt do comps, I just really enjoy them.........even out riding normally I make rules I have to follow, like pretend there is tape and I am only allowed to touch cirten things, or not allowed to stop or do everythin g left foot. I love rules!! I dont think I have ever been nervous at a comp from people watching me, only from the thought falling off and messing up my chance of winning. I am lucky and there are comps local, my parents took me to them for years but they dont go as much now that I have friends that drive (and I can drive myself there when I get a working car :) ) The most fun comps though are the nationals, I love them
