  • Sorry to everyone for my outburst last night.

    Neil - again I offer an apology to you, if you wish to chat and bury the hatchet please contact me.

    I dont want to be having running battles with people on here any more.

    Regards

    James

  • Last night, on Lower Road/Surrey Quaysish area, I saw a large pothole infront of me and lifted my front wheel as I normally do to avoid knackering my rim.

    What actually happened is that my front AND rear wheels hopped about 5 or 6 inches off the ground and I cleared the pothole in entirey!

    I wasn't sure this is what happened but when I got to the lights, somebody asked me how I did it.

    Sadly, instead of looking cool all I could say was "I've no idea mate!"

    So...how did I do it? I want to learn how to do it on demand...it was awesome!

    Is it as easy as raising front wheel from road and then jumping off the cranks when they are horizontal?

  • is that not just a bunny hop?

  • Maybe! You tell me! I'm clueless. I normally try to keep both wheels on the road and spinning, or at least thats my normal riding strategy.

    I think you overtook me just before this happened actually...it was around about 5.45 last night.

  • I was in work then so not me. but don't worry I'm sure you'll get a stamp on your official hatbeard spotter card soon enough I'm sure :)

  • Are you implying that I'm desperate for a glimpse of The Beard? :P

    Besides, wasn't it you who had a minor oh shit moment with that oncoming bus on Tooley street a while back? I've already spotted you..you're old news now mate!

  • what is this category thing under peoples names on the beginning of threads?
    The higher the number is better?

  • Hatbeard...where can I get the official card you speak of?

  • what is this category thing under peoples names on the beginning of threads?

    Lower number is better, as in road racing. Cat 1 > Cat 2 etc. There's a thread about it somewhere, but it's basically a kind of rep rating to inform buyers whether your for sale thread is likely to be straight.

  • Yeah thought it was that but wasn't 100%, cheers mdcc_tester.

  • You know, I hate to ask; but are friends electric? Are they?

    that was an unofficial spot as we didn't converse.

    it's free with next weeks issue of the beano.

    Not my fault you didn't respond to my telepathic DAS. I'm starting to think you're not a Jedi.

  • Jedi is a dead religion of a bygone age. all hail Inglip!

  • Hate crime!

  • I want an avatar of a squirrel. Not that one stop in the spokes. Just a squirrel that doesn't look lame. Anyone got anything?

    (extra points if he's holding a polo mallet).

  • Hate crime!

    you'll be practising druidism next...*
