Was that a wry smile as he drank his coffee at the end?

the petrol burns the snow/frost/rain off the wood 🙂

the smile at the end is because nath was laying on a ladder in a mens health pose watching me and i was trying not to laugh at him 🙂 🙂 🙂

What a nice fella you are, Jedi 🙂

Pulling your hair out though? I see an issue with that statement 🙂

I'm very interested to hear what Tony has to say and his experiences with different kit and his reasons for choosing stuff. I think you'll find I'm in the majority here huckitt

Now i never expected a Jedi to look like he does 😀

As for using petrol to remove the ice, a sprayer from B and Q, will work better, give you an aim and also use less fuel.

Just remember its full of petrol before you dose the gereenfly.

the minority who huck to the flat nice, if you are not interested in people's different views on kit why bother with a bike forum

It is merely a username! I post infrequently, this thread just interested me as it seems to have gathered quite a following

If you didn't like it don't feel obliged to post!

I personally quite like it, appreciate getting the opinions of someone who clearly knows what they're talking about, equipment wise or otherwise.

Would be nice to see more of those silky riding skills however!

@tpbiker - As you've seen each blog will include a different move and a glimpse at the riding at Herts, just have to keep waiting for the next instalment to see more riding 🙂

Well, I liked it!

Good one Tony.

Would be nice to hear/see you doing a bit of riding and commentary on tips, position etc as well as drinking coffee! 😀

nice Vid Tony but I have to say if that's petrol you're sloshing about I'd think again no matter how many times you've done it. Every year several people are killed or horrendously burnt doing the same thing on barbecues . I hope no kids see you doing that or get the idea from the video and think it's fine.I don't mean to be patronising but thought it was worth pointing out.

Follow Jedi on twitter and keep looking at his site thinking about a skills session. Find it funny when you visualise people from here then see them on a video / meet them!Hoping to meet him in the near future.

Could you explain to me please about the air shock suitability on the bottlerocket? Is it just the case with running an air shock on there, there's only space for it on the 150mm travel setting?

bestwick is an animal, can't believe how much better than the rest of the vert world he is, would be a treat to watch him on that corby vert.

There are 5 and 6 inch travel settings and as the linkage has this litte curve on it, the shaft of an air shock fouls mid travel. Make sense?

I hear loads of good reports about this guy so would watch his video blogs. For me, I'd like to see more riding (on the floor, not the shore!... as I never ride in the trees 😀 ) with perhaps a few "how to's" and some good, honest kit reviews.
