Anyone know what happened to the guy at the rollers at Cannock this morning? He looked pretty dazed.
What is it about the rollers people find so hard to ride over? They've already seen cut down once and the way they are going I can see them being flattened
If you don't ride them properly tho its very easy to come a cropper, not everyone knows to suck the bike up over them and extend down them... probably didn't explain the technique very well 😀
they're no where near as good as they used to be
used to take lots of speed in then pump through each one and launch the last
.
fairly easy to come a cropper if you take too much speed into them and get pitched into one of the up-slopes
As said they have already skimmed the tops. Apparently there may also soon be an official chicken run to the Werewolf Drop.
I came into those first time Cannock with my saddle up and had to take them a bit steady... Easy to get a saddle up the bum and come a cropper if you're a bit overexuberant I guess.
Cracking fun with the saddle dropped though!
They should be made bigger to discourage riders who aren't as gnarrrr as us and then add a chicken run. Some ridiculous riders out yesterday. Massive chain gangs of ten year olds. People with no helmets. Ect ect
There should be a push up track so people can practice them 😉
Its a pretty knarly place, yo dudes need to pad up before you rad up.
It does amaze me how ppl fall off there.....we went round with 2 lads in our group whod never ridden off road before, full xc seatposts too, none o this lowered wussyness n noone even remotely came close to crashing on the rollers.....one of em did take a wrobg turn onto the black run descent over on the monkey though....
