AdamR28 Posted October 3, 2005 Report Share Posted October 3, 2005 Matts ride 20"? :bunny: I have to see that. I don't care how, but im getting the money to get there. Awesome! :( Like this you mean? http://www.trashzen.com/anftwheelhook1a.html http://www.trashzen.com/antrick2.html Not bad for an EMO :S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Harrison Posted October 3, 2005 Report Share Posted October 3, 2005 Baz, I don't think they'll have a shock. Everyone's seen videos of UCI events. Besides, it's just a method of scoring. We've all seen how precise and competent both those boys are, and to be fair they hardly ever use their bashguards anyway... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark W Posted October 3, 2005 Report Share Posted October 3, 2005 Tunni an CLS will have a shock when they come up against the sections! Remember its UCI marking. Have Neil, Craig an Ceasar rode UCI before? :$ FFS Barry, it just basically means "Don't go to bash or pedals." Craig and Tunni are able to "not go to bash and pedals". Stuff about time and shit is just the same as any comp, and bearing in mind Craig used to ride the Tyketrial rounds (even did a Worlds round, didn't he?) I'm guessing he'll have some experience.

I'm guessing he'll have some experience. mark you are VERY wrong.... for the people who do NOT know the FULL uci rules 1: no pedal, bashguard or anything other than the tires is to touch anything.... 2: 2:30 time limit and 1 dab eveyr 15 secs if you have any left... 3: no minders/ no one is aloud to give advice to the rider while he is riding the section... 4: no one but the rider and observer is aloud in the section at ANY time 5: you SHOULD mechanic your own bike... but there is ways of getting around that... 6: the bottom bracket counts as a third point in uci raher than biu its just the two hub axles 7: your front wheel must not hover outside the tape... TOUCHING THE FLOOR OR NOT it makes no differece... you must stay in the tape at all times 8: no bridging of the tapes is aloud... there is many more... but they are the main ones...

JIX Posted October 4, 2005 Report Share Posted October 4, 2005 Slightly off topic. But I have always thought that in BIU, you have to pass both wheel axels through the gates. Is this right or is it something to do with the bb??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Harrison Posted October 4, 2005 Report Share Posted October 4, 2005 Shouldn't be a problem for them (CLS & NT) as they're both precise riders who tend not to use their feet/bashguards, and I'm sure they'll be at home on this 'streety' UCI stuff. Don't think they'll suffer from not getting advice, and they mechanic their own bikes anyway (not difficult unless you're a complete spastic and have to get your dad to do it).

Badboy Posted October 4, 2005 Report Share Posted October 4, 2005 Slightly off topic. But I have always thought that in BIU, you have to pass both wheel axels through the gates. Is this right or is it something to do with the bb??? Yeah you are right, But in BIU they dont penalise you if your BB doesnt make the gate. Meaning you can bridge over the tape on a tight corner, but in UCI that isnt allowed. In UCI THREE points must make every gate, the front axle, BB and rear axle. If you front axle goes over the tape (like Aust said) even if it doesnt touch the ground you are deemed to be out the section. Mark, FFS stop jumping down my throat at any given opportunity. I'm not taking anything away from neil or craig, but there is a huge difference between BIU an UCI, an a huge difference between comp an street. I'm sure they will do well, but they are up against riders who practise all the time without using bash, not just 'oh I cant use it today but I'l still win!'

(me probably being the least experienced out of the uci riders) but none the less... ive rode world cups.. and we're used to the atmosphere audiences and pressure of a big uci event such as this..
