aener Posted June 1, 2011 Report Share Posted June 1, 2011 Bit long for what it is, but to encompass it all it had to be. I'm a student and my riding buddy works. Rained all bank holiday and is super sunny when he's back at work. Went to Bunny and this was all I did. Got infected with a passionate determination, and so 2.5 hours and 127 attempts later - I now have very sore feet. All the clips are chronological - save the first one obviously - and the first attempt was the first time I'd ever tried it. Never ramped up anything over bar-height before, so I'm stoked as a goat. You get to see the progression from the absolute start, and battling a minor mental block. Not as exciting as a full video, but it's something a little bit different I suppose. How awesome is it to land it bang on 128? Wicked. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bikeperson45 Posted June 3, 2011 Report Share Posted June 3, 2011 SO I was the only one bored watching that? I like watching riders pushing themselves and admire the commitment, but skipped to the end after 40 seconds of watching roughly the same thing over and over again.

Revolver Posted June 3, 2011 Report Share Posted June 3, 2011 Well, it's not exciting to see the same shit over and over, but it was nice to see him progress, maybe moreso for me because I know the guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
