The only problem with the spec is that 'skill' and 'balls' were not on the options list :P

You're a man of good taste

It's going to be a long 8 weeks but I'm keeping 'The Bruiser' 'till the new one arrives - don't want to miss out on play time opportunities.

Excellent, well done. That looks like a right laugh. I'd love to see someone riding something like that round the trail in Richmond Park, preferably in full body armour. I'm sure I will do one day.

If you find anywhere that does sell these please let me know. Could also do with some 'being arsed' if you know anywhere that sells that as I'm running low.
I'll remind you about saying Matt has good taste next time the f word crops up.

I take it all back...

7x lift passes for BPW for the 29th June (well I booked Monday) and a new Joe Blow Sprint track pump to replace the one I broke:

Not sure I mentioned it when I "just" ordered it, but I have recently ordered a day at Antur Stiniog this Friday.

The new blue there opens tomorrow. All is well.

Just ordered this, a new lightweight waterproof for my pack and gets good reviews - Endura Helium

GoPro Hero 3+ Silver - I'll try not to spam terrible biking videos.

Quick question for you chaps too, what do you reckon is the best mount, I was thinking either chest or helmet?

ride_whenever

chest is my favourite, but helmet can be good.

Cookeh

Another vote for chest mounts.

Not what I expected my first 29er to be :shock:

Not for me thankfully. Perhaps I should buy the boy some pads as well.

Get him one of these

That does look quite cool. Surely using the brake is immediately followed by a face plant though.
Again, I hope my son doesn't see that.

I guess you need to be quite delicate on the brake, either that or get used to moving your weight backwards when you brake

you know that phrase about old dogs and new tricks? I think that's why I find riding a unicycle impossible. Let alone managing to modulate a brake and maintain balance with sufficient finesse to avoid a face plant.
Still looks cool though.

I guess you're right, it gets to a point where it's best to accept that something might look cool but it's not going to look cool when it's you doing it!
