really??

doing it wrong

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7noXuCKZDgI I LOVE psychedelic rock!

he's in Europe so won't be at Radfest

It doesn't rain at all up here Mark, all the times I complained was just to make you feel good, Glasgow is the place to be! :wink2:

they might be building this.....http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-glasgow-west-28309787 just yards from my front door......oh boy oh boy oh boy!

did this ever happen?

that video had pretty much everything I hate about BMX in one place, playstation tricks all landed at the bottom of ramps, no style, Mark Webb, gum shields, shit music, shit editing and annoying BMX fanboys. Give me Roey any day!

could watch Vasek ride all day, just wish he didn't spin goofy. Fortunately his flow and style makes up for it

I'm curious to what you'd like different, I don't expect everyone to like the same thing but I'm a little surprised by your views.

by the river somewhere works for me, I live southside

I'm interested if the weather is nice

nice flow!

bloody trials rider!

bunnyhops

if I still rode comps I'd pretty much want exactly that bike

Most people tuck to the side of their front foot for sidehops, tucking the other way for hops will help if you want to spin regular

ha yeah, I didn't touch it and I did it with no hand (the bar ends were not straight and it kept on wanting to roll over)

high hops are all about acceleration (how fast you can lift the bike) and technique (how you lift the bike). Being strong helps, the stronger you are the fast you can lift the front end up, this acceleration is very important! The next part is technique, the idea is to lift the front end as high as you need and then scoop the back end up. It will look like you're pushing on the bars but this is just a result of the scoop. To get really high you're going to have to start getting a little twist on the bike to allow the rear wheel to come up to the side of you (like a sidehop tuck). Twisting also minimises the time spent going over the bar as you have less distance to travel. I'd recommend tucking to the side of your back foot (opposite to the sidehopside for most people) as this means you'll get spins easier later without having to do them goofy. this is a picture of me mid tuck at 120cm

120cm bunnyhop from the weekends show, managed to top the pole out at 125cm a few times but no one got it on camera

I havn't found a better combination than my mum's home made bread thickly cut and toasted in the Aga with a generous spread of butter and then honey from my dad's bees. Seriously tasty!

Thanks JT! Ok, she finally got a reply from him. He explained that he's been busy (training ha!) and apologises for not being in touch but unfortunately he can't refund her money as it was taken in the previous tax year, he's happy to finish the sessions though (how generous). The funny thing is that since my gf asked for the lessons and got no shows from him she's trained as a pt and is now more qualified than him (she's always had an interest so it's not like she suddenly learned stuff). She's off to the gym tonight and is hoping he's there. It's a total piss take as the only reason it's the previous tax year is because he didn't show up to scheduled sessions and then ignored her. After she's given him her opinion I'll post his name, Facebook, phone number, works details and address if I can get it, his life will be a lot easier if he just gives her the £80

I don't get how sitting down and wiping is possible? There's not enough room for a hand to go down at the front and the risk of hand/toilet contact seems really high from every position. Standing seems the logical way

Ross got it, but it's pretty much the same position a 180 would be, just my head would be looking t'other way. A couple more from todays show. a line I didn't think was possible, I thought maybe to hook or bash but after a few goes I got it to rear which I'm pretty happy with! a Drop gap Cocky pointed out, he would have had it but the setup was tricky. a wheelswap on a fencepost

I like this shot from todays demo, 115cm.
