MegaSack DRAW - This year's winner is user - rgwb
We will be in touch
Following on from jojo's mugshots thread....now we know what you look like, lets see more about how inept you all are on a bike, we all like to big ourselves up but in reality MOST of us ride like utter plebs.
So no pics/vids showing off off the skilz, stacks and spacks only
lets see if we can get to errrr a measly 100 posts..

Stair Gap Fail....
Videos of me falling off
Front wheel washout (1 min 30 secs into vid)
Falling off at approx 1mph! (1 min into vid)
Think I need to get out & practice more - these just make me look like an utter tool!
TJ - that first one looks like you are demonstrating perfect tripoding technique. Picture 2 sort of ruins the illusion though!
PS If you click on Sharki's vid, one of you on the tandem comes up straight after.
My minor fail - can't even explain it.
Behind the camera for both of these. First is a scanned image so sorry for quality...

Some flex on your front wheel there Sandwich
christ yeah, look at that flex!
Lightweight wheels at speed with a large bloke will do that. Pro2 hubs and DT4.1 rims still true though after much hoppity gubbins and general hamfistedness.

Cue full scorpion double bollock grind with scream in 3, 2, 1, AKSHUN!
Why do women think that men rolling around on the ground, clutching their bits in absolute agony is the funniest thing ever? It took her (photographer) longer to stop laughing than it did for the pain to go away.

love this thread...
few years back, mate was very lucky with this one, going full pelt bars clipped a branch then stopped inches from the big root infront of his face...

On a snowy ride few weeks back, two of our idiots side by side crash on ice..

Argh! [b]Lowey[/b] - that last pic, do you know him? Has he still got a nose?
that one of loweys is a classic - thats his own front wheel pwning him...
Not me, taken by me, of someone one here, but don't know the 'new' login for them...

Reminded me of this pic!

I actualy know where that last one is (matt)! (houndkirk moor heading towards blaka?)
I swear that has to be the worst combination of slippiest mud and badly placed ruts anywhere inthe world, its impossible to rid it quickly and look cool!
I like Filthy's pic. It looks like the rider has just been warned of incoming artillery.
Matt. how did matey manage to go wrong in your pic ???????? Is it steeper/faster than it looks ?
Erm.. lowey - why do all your pics have your IP address on them?
All that is at that address is the admin page for your Netgear DG834G router (which fortunately you've changed the default password on!)

Avoriaz 07. Came flying down that hill in the background and hit the puddle, without realising that there was a large tree root underwater with its tip perfectly positioned to stab my front wheel. Straight over the bars into the puddle in front of 6 friends (naturally).
Classic failing to negotiate bridge in sidewind (animated):

Can't get over that pic Simon. He's clearly riding towards the edge, why doesn't he just stop?
Not me, I was filming.

that bridge dive is superb. 😆
sfb - I love the fact that no-one behind has even begun to respond yet. And I love the fact that despite the futility, the a bridge-grab was attempted!
He's clearly riding towards the edge, why doesn't he just stop?
that's in slow motion - and there's a strong surprise sidewind as he comes out from behind the sheltering wall. Applying the brakes would have made him fall off too I think... several other riders almost did the same thing 🙂

John, do you have any video of Peter falling off the bridge ?
Chronic bike control failure on Dartmoor probably caused by cycling in footie kit....

The cyclescheme hits work. There are a lot of guys buy nice bikes (and Sid buys a hand-me-down) and start to do a lot of riding. After a while they want to try that 'Laggan' they've heard so much about. Some of them decide to try out their new SPDs.
There's nothing worse than hearing you making a fanny of yourself on video 😳

SFB, sorry, no video of Peter. I would probably of dropped the camera due to laughing too much anyway 🙂

leeds, leeds special needs!
(busa bantery, best crash ever)
Hur, hur, Strong work sir.

Matt. how did matey manage to go wrong in your pic ???????? Is it steeper/faster than it looks ?
Blacka, yes. Steep? no; rocky? some; slippy? can be; how did he manage it? I dunno! it was class though! I also managed a perfect solo flip on bike at a similar point - in the dry! I think in hindsight I caught a pedal as I got up to speed - and it *is* a lovely fast descent...
Hmmm, now where's his bike?
Jambos fail in following me off Dunkery.

A bit of a crash in Spain while trying to do drop offs that where way past my talent threshold - despite being very small!
Over the bars and head first into the ground resulting in a smashed helmet and a separated shoulder.
Much to the amusement of my teammates!

Three bones broken in hand, a couple of ribs cracked and lots of skin removed.
[i]And the infamous LukeB at Glentress, the most viewed pic on my Fotopic site![/i]
Could someone photoshop a cape onto LukeB? That is CLASS - hope he was alright?
filthy, where is that? looks tasty.
Been pissng myself looking at these! "Weight to far back" - brilliant. If ever there was a reason to go riding with other people this is it.

Little bit of cheeky trail near captain cooks monument, North Yorks
Am really enjoying this! Shall see if I can find my wet t-shirt contest pic 😳
This ended very badly for me and the bike. My first bigish jump in 2004, going badly wrong

dunno who this is but he's cummin off.

er, [b]YES[/b] :o)
Some proper decent stacks here! I love the 'just before they crashed' ones best, though. You're wincing, just looking at the pic, knowing it ended badly...
Only an 'Almost FAIL' from me, I'm afraid.
I JUST managed to ride this one out, landing a jump. PP really thought I was gone. In front of a fair few people, too. Phew...

Poddypic.
Is that chav jump gully in swinley RB?
thats the one, chav in place 😉
Well, those are Adidas tracky bottoms I'm wearing (right leg tucked into sock), and £15 SPD shoes out of LiDLs!
I remember thinking, 'I may possibly have lost this one', at that moment...
There were girls watching, too, and everything.
Well, Aleigh and Cinnamon Girl...

Descent on the Penhydd trail. He was lucky to not go over the edge behind him, would've been a hard fall into a rocky river!

Aaaaaah, that would explain it. So what's the idea of tagging the images with the requesting IP address then? Is it supposed to discourage copying them?
Couldn't it be removed in 2 seconds with Photoshop, or do you also embed an invisible watermark?
