Ben Travis - Happy Radio

Oreet guys,

Latest video by me. Many thanks to Atomz, Trialtech, and TartyBikes as always. Appreciate your guys help in whatever I do.

I havent made any videos in a while, and it has taken a long time to get this video together. I have been riding ALOT more natural recently as lets be honest, its ALOT more fun.

Im not overly happy with the video, but i thought i should release it as i have taken the time to edit it. Its nearly 4 mins long, song is by Edwinn Starr (LEGEND), song is chirpy and I love it. This, in my humble opinion, is what trials should be about - having fun and riding with your mates (cheers boys - you know who you are). I try to portray this in my video, and hope you all enjoy it.

I would appreciate your comments, good or bad.

Ben, that was really good.

The line at St Nicks was cool, you can tell you have perfected it. Gap down to front, spect!

Your riding does look as if your not pushing but I think that's just because your getting smoother.

That gym'n it up must be really helping.

Hope you like your new bike when you get it.

See you soon bud.

I loved that, not any fish eye which is always a good thing in a video, a good fresh tune and some smooth as feck riding which really makes me want to go out and ride which I think is awsome. Think you could easily have made some bigger lines, but for a chilled out, smooth as feck video it was spot on (Y) and nice to see the difference from your TGS, hit it as hard as you can bashing style..

Nice to know you have a sensitive side too babes :P xXx

lol that was very different but in a good way! The song was definitly gay :P but it did give a really good vibe to it. Your riding, well, its sick. Nice to see long lines added and un-repetitive moves used too

Really good. Downloaded (Y)

Ben, "best" is such a subjective word!

That was some great riding, some interesting lines (the fence to roofs one, gap up to front wheel hops) and riding does look fun.

I have found your videos becoming more interesting as you move away from the whole TGS thing.

You're not wrong about natural riding though, hope to see some of that on video soon.

bye

sick ben... didn look like u were pushed by anything in the vid though? some of the lines looked awsome and massive but u looked like u pissed em :) good thing i guess haha

I suppose thats a good thing. I wasnt intending to 'piss them', however if thats how it looks on camera then yer its a good thing. I had been finding that i had a total lack of inspiration on street, but i have lines i want to do with a good mixture of TGS and flow.

The line at St Nicks was cool, you can tell you have perfected it. Gap down to front, spect!

That gym'n it up must be really helping.

Its not quite perfect, but i have done it now. I have some ideas to improve it!! I do think the gyming has really started to help. I have been concentrating on keeping smooth as well as attempting to go big. I have no idea why i have replied to you on here when i have the mother of all emails to answer from you.

wow man that was amazing!

Dont take this the wrong way but i didnt know you THAT good (Y)

Cheers man, im not that good, but i suppose it depends on what you class as good. I just enjoy riding, and this is the outcome. Im a veteran now, so i have had enough practice lol.

i love the way i make big tgs moves look so piss as like ur jus messing around haha

I hope thats the way all the muckers and I portray our riding, 'cos i feel (speaking for them as well) that is the way riding should be. Too much serious people in our sport me thinks.

reminds me of ali c if im honest. the music reminds me of riding with you and your banter so good choice (Y):)

Not really quite up to Ali's standard, but cheers very much mike!

The song was definitly gay :P but it did give a really good vibe to it. Y

Its the way trials 'music' should be. Fun, and happy....afterall thats what GAY means isnt it???

And where is that place you bridged to a fence and then did a side hop to another side hop?

Thats up at the hospital dude. Filmed that ages ago, i need to get it done again with some more 'style' added.

I know how hard it is to film hard lines and be consistant so respect to you!!!

Im glad someone pointed this out :). Its the hardest bit is finding the effort / ability to keep up a line of moves that I find difficult (even though people seem to think im finding these moves easy - im really not).

May i have your babies :P

Just thinking about it has made you pregnant

EDIT: To all those i haven't quoted - i appreciate your comments and thank you for watching the video.
