Rad to the power of sick, Jedi.

My lad taking it to the max 🙂

Totally gnar, Mr Jedi. It looks like you've been photoshopped into space. I can't quite work out how you've got there? Nice alignment with the downtube logo though. 🙂

that picture is brilliant ddmonkey.. 😀

a new steve peat in the making there!

This is all looking a bit serious, we need some more mince-core action!

I've finally succumbed to one of the many waves of viral horror sweeping through Aberystwyth. Proper man-flu this is, Mingin'.

That's it, I'm not leaving the house for the next week! Bloody students eh?

Legs of Lance on the last day on this summer's TransAm tour.

@chvck... bloody students indeed! 😉

Is that Clarach, by any chance? ...quite fancy a little play around there when I'm feeling perkier!

Indeed it is! There's all kinds of stuff over there.

[img] [/img]

Totally sick dude.

Oktoberfest

EDIT: sorry didn't realise picture size is huge

Getting radtacular on A-Line. Shame about the bow-legs though.

[IMG] [/IMG]

ddmonkey - that has to be one of the best photos I have seen on here...

I love the total commitment... not even covering the brakes.

[img] [/img]

VERY sick rat.....

I was hoping I had a totally (un)sick pic of me dropping off a curb, but this even so slightly sick(er) pic will have to do

[IMG] [/IMG]

Middle drop at Glentress skills park.

About to case a jump at Stainburn 😀

right click > view image for biggar

Cheers all! He was three then and is now 6. He's got some skills now, can properly jump small table tops, proper nose down landings and is very good on steep stuff in the Alps as long as its not too rough. He's better at skinny's than me...

[img] [/img]

Being trained in the force!

not very sick but hey...I was doing 50mph 😯
[IMG] [/IMG]

ddmonkey - did your lad ride out of that move? I have a fear that he might have turned into it and introduced himself top the floor :Oo

I'd be proud to get out of it without bailing :O)

@rossi46... nice bike that and i particullrly liek your forks... nice.

[img] [/img]

Peak hill hill climb. Something like an average of 25% or something stupid, so excuse me for not big ringing.

timbur yes he did ride it out, although he did go splat on one of the follwing attempts at riding through that little bombhole. He's always been good at dusting himself off and giving it another go, he's very determined to ride / clear sutff 🙂

@messiah.. you wouldn't catch me riding down that in a month of Sundays. Looks gnaarrrl 8)

Looks like it's somewhere near that ST eco-destruction route in Scotland, possibly?

Nice 5lab, I was so bad at that section of A-Line, need way more speed than I'm comfortable with to clear that big set of 3 jumps. Pretty much every other jump down it is fine, just that section I was terrible at!

_tom_ that's on crank it up near the bottom. If you're thinking of the 3 pack that used to be the 4 pack (at the top, before dirt merchant merged with a-line) then I agree it was tricky - only really got them once this year, mostly just hung them up..

edit : just replaced that image with the paid version on Flickr, it looks like the old link stopped working. here's the new one

Oh right I think I recognise the section now, those last ones on Crank It Up are good but easy to overshoot 😀

Great idea.

Disco - That looks like out of a mag, great shot

5slab - Again, another awesome shot!

Realman - Green kit on a red bike. How dare you!

Probably my favourite photo of me ever:

is that all the herts shore? Is there any way of getting on that other than a skills course?

5AM, that wallride looks ace, where is that?

An old picture of me riding a childs bike at a skatepark. I'm sure if I wasnt wearing a helmet, I'd have maximum sick points. As it stands, its fairly average.

5lab... AWESOME photo. Totally sic as.

Jedi's backgarden(?) northshore photo is somewhat druidy.. 🙂

Here are a few of me looking sick 😉

(Cackles with delight in a cruel and nasty manner, at the pic of M-Boy suffering 😆 )

TBH, the only person who looks genuinely ill in any of these pics is RealMan. 🙁 Poor lad he don't look well, do he?

Something like an average of 25% or something stupid

Then, right:

No it isn't, stop making excuses. MTFU.

Ha ha! Top quality pwnage! Innit though; that's a bit of flat road ffs! 😆

Sick to the power of Rad:

Makes you look positively butch doesn't he, and me look obese! 😉

Sick as an old man like me gets, and jolly raddish if you ask me.

TBH, the only person who looks genuinely ill in any of these pics is RealMan. Poor lad he don't look well, do he?

😀

I do know where the pic was taken it was meant to be 25%, and that's just before it kicks up. It is bloody steep, so low gear FTW. Also I think I placed 6th out of like 40 after 3 months off the bike, so was fairly pleased.

And I am sorry about the green kit/red bike combo, but it's out of my hands.

Sorry Realman you just didn't try hard enough, I mean I actually specced our club kit to match my bar tape.

Makes you look positively butch doesn't he, and me look obese!

Innit though??! 😯

S'not right that. How much do you weigh, RM?

I didn't get a say in our club kit design though, although I do know several people who have specced their bar tape to match their kit. Anyways it's mostly black, like the bike.. 😉

S'not right that. How much do you weigh, RM?

Don't you know it's rude to ask someone that? Honestly.

Only a lady, and tbh perfectly blunt, son; you ain't no lady...

So go on then; how much you is weigh?

Not sure, been a while since I've been weighed. I'm probably still around 55kg, give or take a kilo. How much are you?

I've ridden a day with RM.. most of that 55kg is in his thighs

😆

[img] [/img]

Rad to the power of sickage!

haha realman over the past 3 years I've lost a whole one of you + another 10kg in fat 😯

😆

How tall are you RM?

Good for you tom (assuming that's what you wanted) 🙂

About 5"8 I think.. you want my blood type and stool sample too?

Circa 1990, when I could ride a bike without falling off 😆

[IMG] [/IMG]

I reckon it is the smouldering look, mrs_oab thinks it is the 'four days into a C2C, feeling sick and knowing the biggest day yet is ahead, halfway up the climb' look. (moi on left)
[img] [/img]

so real man i actually really a teen... Awwww bless him...

This is all looking a bit serious

I'm probably still around 55kg, give or take a kilo. How much are you?

😯

I'm over 60kgs. And I've lost a bit of weight recently, too.

You're a bit taller than me. You need to eat, son! Forget all this cycling malarky. No wonder you're struggling on slight inclines; you've got no energy you must be weak with hunger.

'Kin students. Know all sorts of useless things like maffs; can't feed themselves propply. 😐

you want my blood type and stool sample too?

Stool sample please. Then I can send it to someone I don't like and won't get caught through DNA analysis cos it's not my poo! 🙂

Do you have worms?

HtN last year.

[IMG] [/IMG]

Do you have worms?

Some of us are just born thin, eat plenty, still 60kgs, same weight when I was 16.

P.S. Looks as though you are just about to have a fall in your pic, or you're going very slowly fat boy 😆

You're a bit taller than me. You need to eat, son! Forget all this cycling malarky. No wonder you're struggling on slight inclines; you've got no energy you must be weak with hunger.

I'm flattered you're so worried about me, you sound like my mum. I eat loads, like 4 meals a day, plus snackage.

Worms? Me? No.

60kg and only slightly shorter? So you're not really that far off from me anyway..

Awwww bless him...

😀

P.S. Looks as though you are just about to have a fall in your pic, or you're going very slowly fat boy

Dunno how you can tell, but you're probably right about the very slowly part.

Check out the dust.....

jaun,
pull???

I don't mean for him to shag you jedi, I know you're a married man and I am all for marriages happiness, just so you can teach him to ride properly,it's a shame to have both wheels on the ground on such step 😉

Nice stumpy! I like a bit of retro, speaking of which- heres my mate Phil back in 1997 or so.

Pulling a 'Sickie' instead of being at work. Glory days, although nowhere near as skinny these days!
