An Old Picture Of Nick Manning


Mr Motivator

Recommended Posts

iv done 56" in bristol and that was forking hard so anyone doing higher must be hitting the wall at some good speed and with long bikes. i found it fairly difficult to do 56 and i was hitting it flat out!!!! for people who were on the bristol ride on the roadtrip with ben savage there. but i mean hats off to people doing higher (Y) cos anything above i know must be extremly hard. (Y)

Waynio...............................

iv got mine as a picture on my comp il try upload it. BUT im now thinking that it was 58" :S il check though cos someone took the piccy and named it the size of it for me.

Ive stood next to butler when he did 58" and i cant explain how easy it was, and the tap was not hard at all, and he had about 2 bike lenths of run up, starting from mud as well.

I dont get it, he pointed out a 62"er hes nearly had but keeps cumming of the back. :blink:

cheers porter............

thats the 56" i think :S if you measure it rowan me n savage measured it. i cant remember how big it was, that was 2 full pedal strokes upto that too. pedalled the full way at it. full speed ahead BANG BANG!!!!

Waynio.........................

its weird though cos there is so many of those red walls, im sure that you were there with us rowan when we was doing those taps???? should be back down bristol next week anyway. il take 2 at it and see if i can do it again. probably wont be able to, that one took me AGES to do, i think at least 10/15 goes. and a battered ballsack later i did it :D

yes, the longer the bike the easier it is to tap and the more time you have to adjust your body to the size of the tap i have found.

anyway,back to the proper topic the tap of Nick Manning is huge to start with!!!!and thats from a while back and iv seen him tap massive at bristol to 2wheels and to back wheel (Y)

i hate the batterd ballsack feeling too buddy :( propa sucks hurts for a few seconds then goes but comes back when you start maoving and they start twazzing the side of your leg :P

Damon in conjunction with what you said, did you mean with a higher b/b you can tap higher???? i odnt understand???? i wouldnt mind trying a higher b/b frame but people have told me its harder to tap with higher b/b??? :S i dont know cos iv never tried though.

i know Rossi was struggling on his BT with a high bb to tap high? :S altho i thought high b/b was good for natural where ground clearance and balancing were better on these bikes.

i have done 51" to back from "Half" a pedal, wrong foot forward then to good foot forward got a picture of it too, BUT there is a ledge thats a couple of inches lower that i land in 1st :P but still gotta hold it like.

random fact of the day : nick manning is also the name of a porn star

is it really?????just imagine manning doing a sexy pose while he was tapping 54inch or summit!!!! or his wanger getting trapped between his booster and his tyre!!! OUCH!!!! hahahahaha

Waynio..........................

(PS not that im imagining this or owt, but that would be funny if this porn star WAS the same person as THE nick manning, il be seeing him next week in newcastle ;) hahahaha might have to ask him for some tips and advice on how to become a pron star)

It's your own fault though, it wouldn't happen if you didn't have such big bloody balls. You see; Me = small balls = no problems :-
