Tartybikes Maiden Van Voyage


Mark W

Recommended Posts

Last night, we decided to go for the maiden trip in the new TartyBikes van (getting stickered up as we speak...), so after extensive consultation with www.RainToday.co.uk - it's beltin' - we worked out Liverpool would be our safest bet. Here are some clips. To pre-emptively answer some questions:

1. Stan is using TNN Black pads.

2. They work well.

3. That's Adams first ride on his Inspired.

4. It's a Renault Trafic.

Yeah, we'll get some photos taken. Well, assuming the van doesn't get washed away some time between now and next week anyway. Fingers crossed...

No idea about the TNNs, sorry! They've been tested for a while by various TNN test riders so I'd imagine they're not a million miles away from being done, but we'll see.

Nice. Some great lines from all of you there, really enjoyed it!

Woody and I must have been there just a couple of hours before you. It was my first time riding there, so I had a lot of fun! It's a nice little loop on the docks, plenty of stuff to keep you interested for a few hours!

Music Mark!

Other than that awesome :) Loving Adams moto style ups, a man after my own heart :P

Your manual line got a bit of a 'Yea Mark' out loud in the office to much confused looks from the other lads in here... (Y)

Always like these evening ride edits. Was a fun evening. Not rode much at all in the last 2/3 weeks so was good to get out.

New van is sweet, perfect for what we need it for.

PS. Mark's Klinsmann dive was comedy.

2:00 Adam clearly thinking about the Hope water bottle warranty issue and not concentrating enough on his riding.

In all seriousness though you guys make the best videos. I've been riding for too long to feel motivated to go out after watching a trials video but your vids always make me want to ride.

It wasn't a lack of concentration, it was just that Adam's landing point tolerances were too low. Where's an engineer when you need one?

If not, I can't tell what brakes he is running,

Hope Trial Zones, front and rear.

and also what made him put a mini seat on?

Being involved with trials for 15~years, and remembering when mini seats were cool ;)
