monkeyseemonkeydo Posted June 12, 2011 Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 Everybody! Awesome ride. Glad to have a trouble free session with loadsa 24 dudes again. Dude you were on fire! I seriously need to practise my streety riding... Felt properly outclassed yesterday! Massive thanks to Mark for organising it, Dave and the Inspired boys for the various prizes handed out plus big props particularly to Nick Dave, and Ben for ripping it up! Was really good to catch up with some old faces- always good to see Rowan and people and awesome to see Boon out again on a Curtis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revolver Posted June 12, 2011 Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 I wonder what the spot prizes were given for. Tell me someone was filming it! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skoze Posted June 12, 2011 Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 (edited) I'm tired, my hands are falling apart, i'm a little hungover, i'm wet, i smell funny, i have rubber ingrained into my palms and one of my legs doesn't work. SO GOOD!!!!! Honestly the best day i've had in a while, just what i needed. Stoked i got some new stuff down and did some beasty beasting. I'd just like to say that, after going out last night, Eskimo didn't deserve the line-of-the-day prize. Sam Nichols should get it for the run to kissing a random big bloke at the kebab van to run across the road almost getting hit by a car then through the fountains chased by 3 big men who wanted to hurt him line. It was mind-blowing. EDIT; Oh, and we made two lovely girls get with each other in a club. Is there a spot prize for that?

Cap Posted June 12, 2011 Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 Is there a spot prize for that? A semi. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N.Wood Posted June 12, 2011 Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 Cheers to all the cats who turned up, cheers to Mark for putting it on and cheers to Bristol for being so kind to us.

Luke Rainbird Posted June 12, 2011 Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 One of the best days on (and off) a bike I've ever had, without a doubt. Got back from the ride at 11ish, got the beers in and got home about 7.30 this morning. Good times! Again, a massive thanks to Mark, as well as to Dave/Jon/Adam & everyone else that made it what it was Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted June 12, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 Big thanks to everyone who came out yesterday, it was an awesome day! I'm sure you're all aware, but Dave and Jon at Inspired and Trialtech, and Adam at TartyBikes, all completely rule. Two photos from the day (more to come on the Clean site in the next day or so): The top 3, with the brave few who made it to the end of the day Nick, winning a pair of forks, followed by a swan-dive 360 to crowd eruption. Section 02...? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eskimo Posted June 13, 2011 Report Share Posted June 13, 2011 I'd just like to say that, after going out last night, Eskimo didn't deserve the line-of-the-day prize. Sam Nichols should get it for the run to kissing a random big bloke at the kebab van to run across the road almost getting hit by a car then through the fountains chased by 3 big men who wanted to hurt him line. It was mind-blowing Sounded like a good night then! On the way back to the car we saw some guy chasing some other guy at full speed, naked. The disapprovement on some womens faces Real happy that i got the forks! If i'm honest, it's what i wanted But to be fair others rode equally as good, i just think my riding style is less common which worked? Roll on 002, prices or no prices is irrelevant! Well, maybe some stickers, haha. I hope it's cool to steal them pics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark W Posted June 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2011 Real happy that i got the forks! If i'm honest, it's what i wanted But to be fair others rode equally as good, i just think my riding style is less common which worked? That might have had something to do with it I guess, but a lot of the stuff you were doing was either pretty big, pretty technical, or both. Nice and creative too, that one-handed tyre tap to manny 180 at the angled blocks was rad. We had a little 'judges meeting' thing at the skatepark to work out who was getting what, and it was unanimous as to who got 1st and who got best trick, which should sort of tell you everything you need to know The 2nd/3rd place decision sucked though, that was a pretty tricky one...

eskimo Posted June 13, 2011 Report Share Posted June 13, 2011 Shame i missed so much of other peoples riding. Though i did manage to have some lengthy conversations with many people while still riding allot. I hate it not having enough time for everything I forgot to say, whether i should say it or not Berridge has un-seen footage on his computer. I did say everyone would love to watch it, but i think he needs some convincing and, the help fixing my tyre and picking up my pump was much appreciated!

boon racoon Posted June 13, 2011 Report Share Posted June 13, 2011 Definitely not now it's been built up, soz! Good shout organising it Mark, had a well good day. Aching now though. Shit hot riding going down too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted June 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2011 Your timing was pretty impeccable. I was standing there with Mike and Kenny, and someone (can't remember who now) was asking if you were turning up. Kenny said "Nah, it's just a vicious rumour", then you just rolled into view over the bridge. Was good to see you out and about again, the crashes on that rail at the 'top' bit of mini Lloyds were awesome, and the legit lines you were doing there were cool too.

Sam Nichols Posted June 13, 2011 Report Share Posted June 13, 2011 What a day, I seriously don't know where to start!! Mark, massive massive props for pulling it off, I don't think the day could have been more perfect. Weather was awesome, riding was mind blowing and the atmosphere was electric. Big thank you to Inspired and Tartybikes for sorting the prizes. Massive shout to Nick Cooke and Ben Rowlands for shutting Bristol down. I'm reading through all the comments on facebook and in here and trying to put names to faces! I wish I'd chatted to more people on the day but it was damn hard trying to juggle riding, socialising and watching in awe. There better be a Section 002!

haydon_peter Posted June 13, 2011 Report Share Posted June 13, 2011 Thanks to Mark and everyone involved in making this ride happen, plus of course Dave@Inspired and the Tarty Bikes guys for sorting out the prizes. That is the first group ride (other than the recent memorial ride in Portsmouth) that I have been on in a LONG time and I really enjoyed it! There was an amazing vibe which reminded me of the old days when I spent all my spare time travelling around to rides. It was awesome to meet some old faces again as well as new ones and I look forward to Section 02 For those of you that don't know me and want to put a face to the name... I was riding the Megamo Radical mod. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sam Nichols Posted June 17, 2011 Report Share Posted June 17, 2011 I think I had a quick chat with you when you first turned up Mr. Zoot. Did you turn up early at the flat bank with the rails? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted June 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2011 Ah, good man Sorry for not getting your name at the time, I suck with names so with so many new people around I just sort of shut down on that front Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
