dann2707 Posted June 23, 2013 Report Share Posted June 23, 2013 First ride on the new bike, loved it so much even if the brake pads aren't working. Fell off and hurt myself but had to laugh it off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JD™ Posted June 23, 2013 Report Share Posted June 23, 2013 Well that's all blown the fact I've had a great weekend out the water. You couple of coints Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted June 23, 2013 Report Share Posted June 23, 2013 If it makes you feel any better, Danny beat me at the high hop comp (unsurprisingly...). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isitafox Posted June 23, 2013 Report Share Posted June 23, 2013 Part way through upgrading my sons Monty 205, to be honest even if he decides he's not into riding I'll be glad I've done it as the Chinese Whore BB (something along those lines anyway) and Shimano 8 engagement FFW are abysmal! Should be looking good when it's finished and hopefully be a lot easier for him to ride! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JD™ Posted June 23, 2013 Report Share Posted June 23, 2013 If it makes you feel any better, Danny beat me at the high hop comp (unsurprisingly...). It does not. Imagine how well I'd have done in that comp! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted June 23, 2013 Report Share Posted June 23, 2013 Haha, fair enough. I dead sailored like a boss on the final height setting - quite a few people shooting photos of it too, so it must've looked like I was amazing at bikes. I don't think even the top of my rear tyre cleared the height... Semi-related to this being a cool weekend - before I went to bed last night I got to delete my 'recurrent alarm' on my phone which kind of hammered home the fact I don't have a 9-5 job any more this summer. I haven't really mentioned it on here at all, but I got asked to produce an online series focussing on street trials for some website meaning my summer is hopefully going to consist of a week over in Dressler Camp/Prague at the start of July, followed by a month or two of filming people like Flipp, Ali and Rob Harris. Should be fun... 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CalopS Posted June 23, 2013 Report Share Posted June 23, 2013 To be fair Danny only got a bit higher than you and I'm sure he gets chance to ride bunny hop bars a lot more. I hope some pics come out of our tandem bar hops. You sailing over it and me struggling with the element Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JD™ Posted June 24, 2013 Report Share Posted June 24, 2013 Not quite as cool a picture, but this was happy inducing over the weekend. Mowing a field at my Dads place in France with one of the most scary things I've ever seen. It's basically just 3 massive blades attached to the drivetrain of the tractor which makes a huge racket and beats the field into submission... Fun though. Check out the concentration...

Ross McArthur Posted June 24, 2013 Report Share Posted June 24, 2013 Was doing the "Running man dance" to this song in the car this morning since I've sold the 83mm Zee cranks which I bought by mistake for a £10 profit!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muel Posted June 24, 2013 Report Share Posted June 24, 2013 That video disappeared years ago, think I asked my mate to take it down... Got a bit sick of going on group rides and hearing it all f**king day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muel Posted June 24, 2013 Report Share Posted June 24, 2013 Nearly 10 years on I'm slowly starting to see the funny side... In other news, you know how in Windows, in the start menu, there's a folder called Startup? Anything you put in there gets loaded as soon as you login, so on my girlfriend's laptop I made a shortcut to Meatspin. Being a woman she'll never be able to figure out how to disable it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
