yeah some round my way as well have started to appear

get an across, amazing quality, and not bad prices, they are easily as good as a cris king, and far better quality than the hopes ive had in the past

Blatant plug but i have one for sale, its nice and cheap 🙂

What about plastic knives?

Panracer cinders are really good for front wheel drifting in the wet.

Ok that is a good idea tj. Cheers for the advice

dont let your kids ( i was 10 i think) walk in icy conditions with both their hands in their pockets, as i learnt it can lead to long term dental issues.

would the rebound suffer if there was a lack of oil due to dodgy seals?

well, they are leaking oil from the seals, and the rebound is like a pogo stick, and there is no adjustment. So I’m not really sure what they need. I bought the froma guy I know who says they werent use for 18 months but I dont know if thats true.

That EWE evebt looks amazing, but quite frankly there is no way i would have the finances to do something like that. What do you mean by the WRT?

I am tempted by the black mountains race, i was reading up on it earlier. my only concern is the descents will mainly be on grassy doubletrack. Ive never really ridden in the black mountains so this opinion may be ill informed

ewe?

I’m currently reading ‘the handmaids tale’ by Margeret Atwood for the 2nd time. Its a very good book in my opinion.

I am tempted to give it a go legend, I’m just not sure whether I’ll be able to sort out the problem with an oil change and new seals.

does anyone know anymore about the ritchey one? It looks a bit more gravity focused, and i cant decide if that is a good thing or not.

thanks for this thread, I was hoping to do the trans wales this year, but evidently that wont be happening now,but i think there is a very good chance i will do one of these events, its time to start reading up on them and bullying riding friends into entering them as well 😀

im back tomorow as well, i need the money!

oh, happy birthday mamadirt

legend might have got it right. It is the first mcdonalds I’ve eaten for about a year. I thought, sod it, its my birthday and i’ve got fat over christmas anyway.

um, i just feel thoroughly pissed of as its also my b’day and i had a fantastic ride. I was planning to go to pizza express tonight, and then that happened.

sorry i just felt like telling someone.

hah, i had a very dodgy incident a few rides ago when i clipped my bar ends on a tree, i’d been through the gap loads of times before and never worried, but it turns out i only had about an inch either side…

Cool, I’ll check out some of those suggestions, I find he is quite different to say jerry lee lewis, especially on his songs like Feast of the mau mau

I love this game! Im currently level 28, and a right mongrel, I tend to shoot them with my bow a few times, then throw some fireballs, then finish them with my sword 🙂 It works for me.

I cant stand the fact that i wont be able to get out either of the next days, due to this jesus thing 🙁

too many to remember. Mostly on my bmx, down the trails, riding bowls etc. I had a couple of bad ones, I messed up my shoulder pretty bad in a bowl, made whole leg turn purple falling off on a vert ramp, knocked myself out once, went over the bars a few times at the trails, and tons more.

i think that the film was pretty much all Woburn, except the very last clip, which is aston hill. It’s just a little ‘trailer’ as the guy who is making it is planning to make a full length film. some of those riders will be a big part of british mtbing in the near future though in my opinion…

thats a great film steve.

looks like alot of fun!

He was an amazing rider. there is no one else pushing what is possible like he was. That video makes me think of hoffman.

ill take the chilli sauce of you if you want?

yeah i know i’m being awkward, i should go for either a 50 or 60, but i really do think that 55 would be perfect, and please dont tell me 5mm wont make any difference, as i know it does.

this reminds me why i no longer have a road bike…

a link would help
😳

check out the very bottom video!

the zens are great bikes!

You have my sympathies tony, I had alot of tools taken from my van between jobs whilst gettign a sandwich.

as someone who works in construction its understandable to say its a good chance it was foriegners. I presume he was talking about our eastern european friends. Some are fine and act like any other civilised person, do a decent ammount of work, to a high standard. But sadly these ones are forgot about in favour of the ones who do steal alot of tools, there have been a few caught on the sight i work on. But they also think its acceptable to piss on the floors, use the brand new, and not connected toilets, and cover the fittings on sight with paint, filler, etc. Oh and they seem to have a love for dodgy trance music 🙁

wow, some people have some big chips on shoulders. I’m sure there was a post the other day asking about 400 pounds ish laptops. It mighrt be worth searching for

shoulder is f’ed so no,

really depressing images, brown i thought exactly the same thing. number 30 was really distressing, i wish i hadnt seen that.
