[Closed] Peatys drop........1st attempt

Thats quite a long way down. 😯

who is the bloke ton - someone you know?

Thats not you ton?

Wow looks about 15ft +? Big drop and nasty rocks if u get that wrong...very impressive..well done Ton.

it is a mate froma group i have ridden with for years.
he is a spot on rider.
look on vimeo for some of troy1 stuff, or the300.

That was not Ton

?

hats off, thats a fair sized drop.

wow, now thats comitment!

What caused them to stack it?

Massive drop!

Good effort, that's some drop.

What caused them to stack it?

someone shouting 'wooorp' distracted him

good effort, that's a big drop.
what went wrong? seemed to do nothing wrong.
was he a bit wonky in the air? bit short? or bike setup?

he paniced in the air and went dead sailor.

looked like he was reading that thread on drop offs the other week and applying all the information on there ....

still tis a nice looking drop

Effort on the drop there!
Seemed to land rear wheel first which is always a killer from that height :-/ Whips the front down pretty hard when that happens.

DrP

landing is on a corner.

Before you all go slagging trail_rat off - he'd own all of your arses on a bike and is easily capable of landing that drop. That is all.

very nice pftf - sarcasm is best served cold ......

There you go grum.

back wheel first plus his mates being near lip and moving around affects concentration

so wheres the second attempt?

There you go grum.

WTF is that? 🙂

He tells me it was part of his paper round.

only on sundays - without the supplements i would fly away.

I'd like to see Ton on this. That 29er hardtail would piss it!!!!

is it only me who doesn't see the attraction in being able to do that?

pretty cool that you got keith lemon to do the filming!

ps. has someone been spunking over super terry's huck pic?

I must have missed the bit where people were slagging him off. Reminds me of my ex missus looking for an arguement when there isn't one

is it only me who doesn't see the attraction in being able to do that?

+1

It feels like I've wandered into a circus. How many times do you get to crash like that before you end up in casualty? Don't you have jobs to go to? 😉

The lad walking across the track really wouldn't have helped him.

Wheres that clip of Jedi doing the quarry drop?

If him and his mates didnt ride the pussy line at the top of mmmbop, they'd have more rad skillz.

JUST KEEP ON THE STEPS

These guys could do it.

did he stack coz one of you lot left that tyre on the corner?

you don't realize how far down that is until you see the rider, i'd maybe roll down that (or walk!)

thats mental, I will never never have the balls to do anything like that, really wish i did...

amen, brother............... 😆

brant not sure who you are but you fancy a ride off? You seem to throwing your big bollocks around, come out with us you can show us hows its done.

Good effort Troy, next time you will nail it.

SNOW TASTIC SKETCH FANTASTIC, no pussy line rode here.

brant = founder of on-one and now ragley! ex journo also

rick, easy tiger............. 😆

Well someone with a high position in cycling should respect all abilities of riding.

RIDE OFF?

rick, do you think dougie was pissed, with his line choice.......... 😆

I used to stand atop Peatys drop and try and get even close to considering to do it. The line into it through a shoddy, barely existent berm put me off before even getting near the drop itself. Keeping enough speed seems like a big enough challenge.

Fair do's for even trying it.

i would have thought it would have been easy...............what with it being a world champion downhillers training ground............ 😉

Wouldn't want to fan the flames or anything Yorkshire_lad but he would appear to have made those steps at least once (did insist on riding some homemade hardtail thing though, may have helped)

a titanium Ragley something or other.[/url] Keep looking and you might see it isn't always so pretty at the end though 🙂
