Your Wheels Cost More than my Bike!

edited April 2014 in Your pics and vids
It's been a long, wet Winter but the sun finally shone and we managed to get some decent riding in on the Surrey Hills in Southern Englandshire.

Here's some footage shot and edited in 24 hours. Let me know what you think

https://vimeo.com/86936711

The title is aimed at all those carbon full-sussers for three or four grand that you see out on the hills nowadays and there's me on my steel hardtail. I'm just jealous really.

Inspired by the great track 'Your Hubcaps Cost More Than My Car' from NOFX an American punk band who I've been listening a lot to lately. I have no rights to this track etc.

    mustn't have been enough whinging dbags in it for you I guess.


    MTB-idle - jealous you could get out, beautiful day. With the continuing snow, I don't think I'll get out until late April.

    Cut it down and make it a bit more snappy and it would be great. Some good shots in there!

    CAWT. Making vids is all well and good for yourself and your mates who were on the ride to see, but unless they're really impressive riding or somebody does something stupid and/or painful then they're almost always extremely boring for anyone else.

    I agree and massive skids, everyone knows chicks dig a big gravel flicking skid!

    So true, I wish more people would realise this.

    phew, tough audience.

    @coulddobetter, nah, keep away. It's not worth visiting.

    @njee, you are too cynical, you've been spending too much time on STW.

    @Kowalskidmark, do you wanna touch my bike?

    If you don't want to hear people's opinions then don't post your vids on the internet and invite people to tell you what they think? Or post less boring videos... :roll:

    cheers Manny,

    that's the great thing about the internet, anyone can publish whatever they want and the individuals out there can decide on their own whether they like something or not without having some random middleman filtering out stuff just because it's not to their taste.
