this one but does get inflated anywhere near shown in the pic

Pillow is very important to my nights sleep

I have an inflatable one from decathlon – £5

Just inflate about half way and it very comfortable – weighs nowt

HTH

I recall that pic from another thread – truely fantastic looking guitars

I’m kinda coveting PG fireman model at the moment – via Mr Bigs get together and subsequent CD

Ooooo looks like New Yorks are being built again – no lefties though

GH

Love those Eggle New Yorks on the floor – really wish I’d have bought one at the time

Plum

its in a constant state of tuning flux

My summer one is softie terra – says comfort down to 2oC – very light and perfect for me right into autumn

its tuned :D

I have 2 snugpaks – very nice – toasty too

more trees for DezB like

Heres one I prepared earlier :twisted:

Plum

I saw many MTBers walking, mincing down the HTN ‘descents’

Also many CXers nailing the ‘rock garden’ bits very quickly

all down the the rider and how they choose to approach things rather than skill I think

I beat a girl – I totally rock

Terra and everyone – thank you so much – my legs and grin bones still hurt :-)

Plum

Mew

Not under rated but perhaps underknown

Waits for DezB to do his thing :D

I’d like to put something but as DezB seems to have a bit of a downer on me at the moment I’ll refrain

Consider this my training flounce – perhaps to be upgrade in the future

Plum

followed immediately by

you cannot have one without the other

I’m not even a Van Halen fan but this is the 80’s wrapped up in 2 songs for me

There are a pair of archery gloves I saw in Canada – windstopper and removable fore finger thingy that would work I think

Can’t find anything online but I saw them only 2 weeks ago

accutronics works without bleeding – innit

works for me – good call I say

I have decided to knuckle down and learn something that people will know instead of the pentatonic rubbish I play with some flourish :D

So far I have
I love rock n roll
Beat it – minus solo naturally
Smooth Criminal
Rock bottom – just cos I love it
Crazy train

I might even learn some led zep FFS

Guitar FTW

inbred

Using Kinetic for mapping/ave speed/elevation etc – works well for me

Bike hub for way finder on a bike – not used it much but seems vaguely ok when I have

SFB lives there – I’m out 8)

I don’t have children but on the odd occasion I’m forced into their presence I find them **** ing objectionable to the last. This is not their fault but ALWAYS that of their ‘parents’ who seem to have devolved into children lackies

I once heard a woman ask her 2 year old daughter what she wanted for tea – there is so many levels of wrong in that

Happy to ignore all your children if I can

Plum

Yup – tender hooks – absloutely blood boiler

as is

‘would of’ instead of ‘would have’ even when writing it down

Marin_maketh_the_man – I’m looking at you fool :-)

H&S is to a large extent important

Words and associated meaning at the current level of political correctness – well…….not so much

Had to sign for mine

2 pairs in a larger box – would have fitted through letter box

There are some cheap stand alone piano modelers on line sound pretty good

Factor in a decent sound card and midi/usb keyboard and it’ll be good enough until you need/want to upgrade

I’m may be or not be ready but I’m looking forward to it

Mine have just turned up – 2 pairs of twitch

Can’t tell anything second about them other than they don’t come in a box (if they ever did)- certainly good enough for losing in the car :-)

Ta OP

Plum

Absolute shite

And Jack White is overrated – good at what? nope sorry don’t see it – emporer new clothes innit

any time, any place, any where :-)

I learnt to board there just over 10 years ago, really nice atmosphere and some good lessons, after paying for 2 lessons the teacher said just to go over for further advice if we were on the slope at the same time, which was very nice of him

Spent a good couple of months going up there on Sundays and it was always a good experience for me at that time

Possibly convert to a mini downhill track with the inbuilt uplift infrastructure already in place?

The only time I have cycled through London I was touring with a largish trailer – people still wanted to race me – idiots

@Hexham Stu – ha for you yes, for me its a memory in the making

However its not 45mins long and I count that as a blessing :-)

Ta

I edited my 8mm app vid down from 25 mins to that and I only really wanted to show the trip aspect as its really only for my brother and I to see, good knows I’ve seen and done enough riding in the last 2 weeks.

Ditto for the swearing, I have no issue with it and its really only for us anway

As for footage I still have many gigs of go pro and normal cam to go though with masses of riding in that so I may put that vid up at some stage

Canadians in Banff area are in the main daytrippers from Calgary and I would see more as blackpool daytrippers over here – but like more richerer

Canada/US has many amazing hills I’m **** if I can understand why anyone would go to Lake Louise or Banff

I do kinda have a soft spot for sunshine though

I have a special ability to pick up on whiners, English or otherwise :-)

Phil…if I may be so bold

Everyones is slightly different, I might enjoy other things than you but as long as we’re having fun on a mountain then its all good, I just wouldn’t necessarily want to be on the same mountain as you guys and vice versa I suspect :-)

I’m glad you had a great time and I can appreciate the amount of effort that goes into a video of that length – it clearly is crafted with great love and care.

I’ve inserted my vid at the top for your perusal – even my brother thinks I’m a **** and he would know.

Cheers

I find 2 things stand out a mile in the US/Canada

1 Its much more family orientated and I see that as a great thing

2 The boarding/skiing is generally at a much better standard, not so much emphasis on park/tricks – in fact a lot of parks have been closed due to litigation issues

Generally everyone is out to have a good time, really take time to chat around the hill and help out if there are any problems

I’ve noticed that where there are a lot of ‘English’ people around the vibe plummets – Louise, Banff area and now Fernie has started to suffer

All I need to hear is another whining uk voice and I’m straight out of the bar if possible

That said a lot of Canadians are **** too so I avoid them if possible

:-)

This time last week I was at Blacktail Mountain Montana – most runs I never saw another person, 3-5 inch powder runs all day and couple of interesting character to chat too – lifties really nice to chat too

Service is king there and it shows
