vinny.p Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 Well as the title suggests, whats everyones perfect time to ride, i woke up at 5:30am this morning for no reason whatsoever and couldnt get back to sleep. So i had a look out my window and to my suprise it wasnt raining, so i thought screw this im going for a ride,(by now its 5:45am).I opened my window to see how cold it was and it was freezing, so i put a hoody over my jumper and went out, and it was the best ride ive had since starting back up lol.I beat my previous highest backwheel (first time aswell) and just generally enjoyed it, i felt so relaxed without the worry of a bunch of scallys coming around the corner and trying to mug me, it was ace, it felt like i was the only in person in town and i had it all to myself. I would seriously recommend going out at this time if you want to learn something new as you can concentrate so much easier.Thanks for reading vinny.

esfrost Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 I felt the same the last summer. I went out riding with my friends at 21 pm, the weather was perfect, no wind, no cars (its a small city), no people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Booth Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 Summer nights, about 9. Warm, sunny, not to hot. Awsome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gavyn. Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 I consistanly go out about 12-2 at night for a few hours either on the trials bike or freeride Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revolver Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 someone who lives in nottingham suggested a 4:00 ride, just because our square is good for trials, but if you set tyre in the wrong place there, in seconds you get some pretend policeman telling you to bob off... 4:00 sounds like an amazing time to ride, i really like being out late/early because it's like you've got the world to yourself. Last time i was out that late, i rode all over the road just because I could, and it was weird because there wasn't a car for miles.Early morning rides ***if only i could be arsed to get up so early Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcinnes Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 I would never be able to get up at that time, and if i did evryone would be complaining about my high pitched brake. Did you wake anyone up because of your brake ?McInnes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomm Posted February 10, 2008 Report Share Posted February 10, 2008 I did it once, a few years ago. Me and two mates started a ride at 4:00 AM I think. It's pretty cool - for an hour or so we had the town to ourselves, and then stuff starts happening - the bin men come and shops get deliveries etc. Pretty interesting actually because there's no way in hell I'd normally be up at that sort of time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Smith Posted February 10, 2008 Report Share Posted February 10, 2008 i love riding trials early in the morning or late at night in the summer sometimes all night in the summer even though my back brake sounds like a train horn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Harding Posted February 10, 2008 Report Share Posted February 10, 2008 during the night-rides are ace. went to london a month or so back got there at like 2am rode till about 5:30 ish and it was so peaceful.Its odd when you see somewhere so dead that your used to seeing totally packed with people. southbank was dead, st pauls was dead no traffic or anything.Done it a few time around where i live aswell. Theres definatly something about ridding that time of the morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Riddlers Posted February 10, 2008 Report Share Posted February 10, 2008 I love midnight riding. Every where's quiet, no-one screaming at you...its ace!Im a bit of a photograper too, so Ill drive to London, take pics of the sights till 11:00pm or so, then bust out the bike and ride as long as I can! Ive been there till 5-6-7am before!I used to do it after clubbing too...only if I was driving like. But Id drop everyone off then go round my home town on the bike. Its ace!

Ben Cox Posted February 10, 2008 Report Share Posted February 10, 2008 had a row with my mum a few years back, left the house about 1, got home around 6, managed to earn 20 quid from a pissed group of townies for "back jumping off that wall!!111" then after all the chavs went i just kept riding to my mp3 player. was an awesome ride, great stress relief aswellBen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
