Riding In Singapore

Recommended Posts

Hey guys,

Been here for nearly a month now, would be heading back to London on the 5th of August. All clips were filmed in various areas in Singapore, a bit of a change to the standard London Ride. Benjamin is a top elite rider in Singapore, who started about a year after I first found trials. Hes sorting out my accommodation for my stay.

Anyway hope you guys enjoy this, I know its a tad short but filming was pretty limited.

Youtube link:

Give it a few moments to process

Hopefully Dan would post a downloadable link soon.

Thanks!

Andrew

Why in sigapore do alot of the people have like these sort of british names then some mad singapore name

ive seen some like dave chinchaowoosa, mark yeasleyao, :S

riding was beasty though

well done chai.

If im correct what i've been told by my chinese friend.. there first name such as Dave is there chinese name translated to english, ovbiously there last name can't be translated so it stays in chinese.

For example my friend's full chinese name is Wahkin Chung.. his english name is Ken Chung.

Please correct me if i'm wrong but thats what i've been told.

haha, its more like your chinese name, and your given name, like Andrew is not even in my passport, though there are some people that have christian names in their Birth certs and stuff. and no its not a translation, not necessarily anyway. Just a given name, like a nick name, but more formal? that u actually use everywhere. i have andrew in brackets in CVs, since it doesnt show on ID i give them.

Thanks for the comments on the video, If anything i rather have people help me improve the editing or something. I feel i have lost my touch, probably never had it anyway.

any help be appreciated.

thanks

I guess the big drop-to-grass flat was what destroyed your cranks/bb eh :o . The gap to rail was pretty nuts :S shame whilst you were in singapore, you didn't hunt around for a decent camcorder or phone with decent video capture. Your than capable of producing some quality riding videos but the problem you is that you never go out with a set plan of action in terms of what lines your gonna hit, and what moves your gonna nail. you just go at it and hope for the best. Steve-o Mod vs Stock vid, is a good example of selective riding lines and good editing.

the cranks bb was done on a drop to concret actually, the big drop at the end was meant to blow the back wheel up, my magnesium rim had about 3 cracks in it just from general riding, i was expecting it to explode after the drop, very surprised it held up.
