Ok so. Was on the train home back from Liverpool today and was having a really hard think and to be honest, this has been on my mind the past few weeks. So where to start. First thing. I remember around 10-12 months ago. A ride topic used to be arranged and we used to get about 30 people together riding. I noticed this with Birmingham rides mainly. I mean what is happening ? Were stuggiling to get 7 people together nowa days. Which got me thinking, is trials really becomign that un-popular ? I've noticed alot of difference in riders aswell, how people change etc, their ridings style's become completly different and it makes me think ? Why, everything was so much better back then, so mcuh more fun etc. Which brings me on to another point. Older riding components. I've lost count of the amount of people who are requesting old Deng parts and saying they are the best. It just goes to show, the old stuff really is the best. But it also got me thinking, Deng obviously wants more sales, then why not give his customers what there requesting ? If you think we should start a petition thread on the matter, then simply reply that you think we should in here. Riding just doesn't feel or seem the same anymore. Everythings changing and in my opinons...It's changing for the worst....... Thoughts and discussion people. Danny.
