Next weekend ride? I guess I won't be riding unless I can get new forks by then, but I'll handle the camera then.
Are people keen to bring back the wednesday evening/night rides that we used to have ages ago?

I'm working Mon, Tues, Wed nights at the moment so I wontbe able to do it on those nights. Possibly on thursday night but I will let you know. It is free for now.
Will probably be very keen for it when I get my new steed.

I'm keen for a bit of a ride at Garden City. Providing that is if we don't get to many peopl comeing. Its not really a venue that could handle a large group. If we get more people interested maybe go to freo instead but I'm keen for GC!! haven't been there for ages.

Brad,
Know what ya mean, it's like if theres a couple of people like youurself, marcus and robin who can do specy things with style and not trash stuff people are ok. But If ya get lots of people all over the place bashing and scraping stuff(like my efforts) people get pissed.Better to learn the moves at the rocks or the lot or where people wont see stuff ups. Dont want trials to get the BMX wrap. See how numbers go ??
Do ya reckon early morning or in the evening, maybe less people there?

hey, i live down the road from 'Garbo'...sometimes we go for rides there at night, the only people there are the ones going to see a movie, theres heaps of stuff to do there, (if your good). sometimes security will tell you off, but then you just go somewhere else, the carparks on the roofs are a good place to hide if you get told off, and they're good for trying to break wheelie records. just have a good scout around and you WILL find heaps of cool stuff. good luck

I'm best for sunday arvo.
Thanks for offering your bike, Luke, but I'm not about to risk thrashing someone else's bike. Trials skills take a little while to adapt to each bike.
Brad; You willing to part with one of your forks? I know they're cracked, but I should have my monty in within two weeks. I went by some bike stores, and the best I can get is an UGLYASS green set, or pay $60 for a secondhand at Entrepeneur. They can go screw themselves.

oh... and it looks like I'm going to have to pay for a second set of louise levers; People seem to stock right-hand levers, but not lefties. So I can't do a straight swap. Just my luck.

hey robin
try download PowerDvd. it plays mpeg2 stuff i think. my geek friend says so when i had problem playing some downloaded movie and it works.
oh yeah.. how much are louis levers? they hella expensive aren't they? if the price isn't much of a difference, i recommend marta. they feel really nice.
i wanna ridee.. let me know where when ok Brad?

Thanks luke, but tried that and didn't help me out at all... Everytime I save in mpeg II I end up with a file just as large as when I save it in avi. Maybe i'll have to get you to have a look at it sometime.
How are you on those hdd's?

garden City on Sunday arvo sounds the best. Make it around 3. Meet near the ampitheatre thing (did I spell that right?).
Robin if you want to let Peiter and Kuba know and I will ring trick, and Daniel
might head down to Freo afterwards?? See how I feel after Garden City.

Oh and I'll bring those forks for you. I'll chuck both in and you can chose which ones you want.
And in future ring me on my Hm phone first. Cheaper then calling my Mob. I'll send this to your Message box.
