Myself and coastkid, discussed doing a bit of filming around the streets of Edinburgh.

So a group of us could spend a day riding around, down steps, off curb and slaloming peds.

If we can get a few grumpy disapproving gestures on film even better.

A polite request of members of he public to act being disgruntled would avoid peeing too many people off.

I’ve also thought of a great story line.

Ok, we’ve all seen Danny macs S1jobs advert.
We could do a parody of that.

One rider dressed as a jobless youth, in a hoodie, no helmet and and a rucksac.

He nicks a bike and the film follows him around town as he does wheelies, skids, splashes people, rides down steps and eventually ends up at the dole office to sign on.

Yes it gives a bad and wrong impression of cyclists, but you no what?, it’ll be a giggle to make.

Who’s in?

TJ, i need you [edited]and as[/edited] a drug dealer he’ll meet.

Might even contact DM and see if he would do a cameo appearance as a ped looking on and shaking his head..

I am not sure what you need me for? I do have a unicycle tho. And a fine selection of hats

edited 😉

Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight 😕

Want to do a recce tomorrow?

I’m grafting for a change tomorrow and sat 🙁

*awaits the ‘your encouraging bike theft!’ wails*

I have anticipated that sarg, and that’s why after signing on he returns the bike and locks it back up.

Sounds like a good laugh , whens the filming date and are we going to see some of CK’s legendary wheelies.

You daft buggers! Depending on when I could be an ‘extra’ 🙂

Depending when, I’d be more than happy to feature as an over-protective parent, with one o them trike pushchairs…. baby not necessarily on-board for stunt footage.

mind were riding here Sunday if you can make it,

it will start another thread on reckless cycling!,
could fake jumping red lights…
aye monster wheelies,tows on the buse`s,bunnyhops,down waverly steps,!
we need an angry pimp and some hookers for the script too Sharki 😆
i have 4 cameras, 2 for bikes and 2 cannon compacts for ride by filming…

If TJ is there and one of you rides with no helmet then he won’t need to act 🙂

CK.

I’ve read you message to me on FB and your thoughts are being considered.

Not so sure about the song choice, but most of the other ideas can be implemented.

I’ve got about 12g of memory on my camera with it filming in HD, so another option.

Might bob along tomorrow and discuss it further whilst pootling around EL.

That is a genius idea.
