Mark W Posted February 25, 2016 Report Share Posted February 25, 2016 Those are some gleaming walls, whole spot looks ridiculously pristine. The North West in actually building new things shocker? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The North West in actually building new things shocker? It's quite new, good practice spot, a few nice lines there for someone with the skills, i have a few planned, there's a big flat area up top, with a big 2 level manual pad, those 5 walls at different levels, couple different stairsets. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted February 25, 2016 Report Share Posted February 25, 2016 Wow, Burnley upgraded! Rode some of the generic spots (e.g. walls by TK Maxx and the town centre, but back then (2010-11) there wasn't much else going on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dman Posted February 26, 2016 Report Share Posted February 26, 2016 There isn't much else, but worth a trip for that new bit. Bunny gap manual, slide under that rusty corner. Just round corner. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
p_ruskin Posted February 27, 2016 Report Share Posted February 27, 2016 Few from Bristol a couple of days ago Won't bother trying to explain again on the riding side of things as it seems if an opinion doesn't fit in with an exact forum criteria it must be scrutinised. I'm sure i'll grow tired and give up with the forum the same as everyone else has fairly soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like to think of it as down to the beauty of the walls at castle park Did have some better clips of it but thought they'd be best saved for a proper edit! Just felt like a bit of stab from some for having said opinion, not on your part but there you go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The correct statement of individual rights is that everyone has the right to an opinion, but crucially, that opinion can be roundly ignored" -Brian Cox, Physicist I didn't add this quote to try and wind you up, but to put a bit of perspective back into the discussion you guys had. I don't agree with the statement you made about 'inspireds & street bikes', but you are correct trials has changed. Is it for the worst? You maybe think so, but I don't agree. If some TGS / Comp / Pure (whatever you want to call it) trials riders went out and put out some more decent videos, then maybe its popularity would increase. Unfortunately, since Damon / Neill / Tra's era / prime, there has been a distinct lack of people putting the effort on the media side of things, whereas there is a significant increase in people putting out 'street' trials media. I enjoy watching pure trials videos, but only if the rider has a decent style. Jack Carthy for example, the only rider who pulls off that crazy bar angle with a form of style to his riding. Others have tried to follow and ruined their style completely. I won't name anyone. At the end of the day, its about riding your bike, and not worrying what others are doing. You seem to be enjoying your riding, and it shows in the clips you've put up. I am an ex-'inch-pincher', chasing the street trials dream, but then still enjoy riding rocks too. I still don't know why the forum / sport is still having this argument, its just riding bikes. Enjoy it and let others enjoy it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice unorganized cluster of quotes there, cheers tf. @Ross McArthur I know your sick sense of humor is wicked enough for me to not have to make a comeback haha @Shub_Step Thanks dude, the nasty noise was me trying to land on the top instead of the edge to avoid puncture you can even hear myself laughing at the fact I landed that hard trying to avoid a puncture. Also I am on the hunt for a Bottom bracket for you as of 5 min's from now! @Jacob Ashworth You already know my view on your riding but those clips were really cool, its always nice to see footage of you that I haven't before. Can't wait for summer. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
