Feel Inadequate? ... We Do!

Tony and myself, both in our 40's, and Rob went for a play in Bristol today. I had buggered my wrist up riding for 4 hours yesterday so was only doing a few hops and Tony was out on his new Zoo after some scum bag nicked his BT a few weeks ago. Robs phone went beep beep.. it was Ben Johnson, and he was on the way!!

So we now feel totally inadequate :D Seriously mate, good to see you again and although i will never be doing this stuff it was great to watch and learn. More photos from him today here.

... just to prove we do ride off the flat bits at times this is me yesterday. sorry about the lack of helmet but my ears had got cold!!

Was a good little ride. Me and matt went a little bit further towards town, not much though. Was good to see you guys again and will have to do it again when everyones health is good haha. Maybe go to a few other spots. The photos came out really well. Thanks for taking them.

Too right! Get a vid out soon as! I need to show my old man!!

Good to see you boys out having fun. keep it up.

Nice bikes BTW

A video of us riding... now that would be a laugh :D it would consist of Kev smoking a fag every 2 minutes, me looking for ibuprofen and deep heat, Rob getting off to polish his bike anytime it got dirty and Tony nearly falling in the water :D

... and Ben, i have just realised that the camo shorts you are wearing are actually normal length jeans for the rest of us :)

You need to get over that "we're too old to be trialalng" attitude lads. Your never too old and I have the greatest respect for you for getting on a bike and riding, and riding well i say! If my dad had a go on one he would simply fall off lol

I do motorbike trials like you guys at r2wtrials and I love that! Just taken delivery of an 09 gasser :P

thanks

Yeah I agree with you Rob. I have a big amount of respect for these guys getting out and riding. No offence to Heath and the guys but I hope that i am still riding when I get to their age. Its good to see people getting out on the bikes for a laugh and to try a few new things rather than just getting out there for some compitition. I myself enjoy riding with them as I always have a good laugh with them and no pressure is put on anyone to do something that you don't want to do or can't do. Hope to get out and ride with you guys again soon!!
