There's a big discussion about this site/place over on MTBR. The general consensus over there is that it is a bad ass setup. However, the owner or whoever put the website up, is a bit on the arrogant side for flaunting such a nice place, yet posting 'keep out' type warnings about not riding...
Even though that response is used quite often, I don't think it will ever get old. :rofl:
bent^biker,
Too bad the Mrs. commandiered the kids fort, or else you could have made a mini platform (along with the bench) to go along with your wee little pump track.
You can bunny hop off drops but it will make the landing a bit harder.
For drops to flat, you want to land ever so slightly rear heavy, those I find the aforementioned racer hop to be the best.
For drops with trannys, try to keep your body position/attitude/pitch the same, and then as your...
I second that.
You don't have to become an expert at trials, but in addition to the bunny hop and manual, you should learn a few other trials skills as well; a track stand (those come in handy when having to navigate super slow tight skinny corners, and when you want to stop and rests for a...
Where did you get the crankset and chainwheel? And yes, I'm planning on running an X-9 med cage out back. I will also be getting a box chain guide. I have no clue which one of those I'm going to get either. I found this one but I don't know if it would be compatible with a setup similar to...
If ya don't mind me axin', less the pedals, how much did all the crankset items cost you? The crankset is one of the items that I'm still up in the air on.
As for the color, the one thing I'm set on, are the white Revolution 32 spoke wheelset. I am also thinking that I will go with either...
You are a pic whore. Especially seeing as how I saw those pics not 10 minutes ago in the BR pic thread over at MTBR. :busted:
I just put a down payment on a an '07 baby blue medium BR frame from my nearest Transition dealer (about 3.5 hours away in Marrietta, GA). Hopefully I'll get to go...
Kidwoo,
I'm surprised you haven't posted pics or footage of that Hugh Gass road gap you did in the Geriatric Extreme Stunt Brigade video. I had to LOL when it showed the look on that girl's face after you did it. Then you see the words 'totally impressed' with the arrow pointing at her...
I think it's more of a matter of the caretakers of the place than my bike's capability. I've read that they are sticklers for ensuring that anyone who rides there has the proper gear (bikes and pads). I've heard they don't allow hardtails on the trail at all, and won't allow you to ride if you...
LOL. I wish Windrock was in my backyard! Although me and my friend Kenny have a North Shore style park built in his 2 acre backyard. You can see pics of it in the Insane Stunts thread if you haven't already.
As for Windrock, the overseers are extremely particular about the type of bike you...
Does anyone know what the current status/condition of this park is?
I'm thinking of getting a small group of riders together here in Nashville and driving down one weekend within the next few weeks, weather permitting, and jam for a little bit.
-RM Flow
-GF Mullet
-Scott Voltage
-Giant STP(friend has one and loves it)
One of my other friends has a Mob steel DJ, but I can't remember the name of it.
Another friend has a Trek Jack. I like them really well, but it seems to have that brand name price hike.
WODIE,
What is the standard protocol someone like me would have to follow if I ever wanted to come down there and ride the Clemson FR and DH trails?
A couple of my boys and myself here in Nashville were pondering doing some trail hopping in that area next spring. Maybe hit the Clemson...
You might have no choice there, dude. I've been looking all dang weekend for a used complete Bottlerocket for sale, or even a frame. No luck. The classifieds here have very few of them and MTBR has none. Unfortunately, that seems to be a very popular bike these days.
I was about to say...
Was that before or after I mentioned it to you in the other thread?
And when you say it wasn't the smoothest landing, what exactly do you mean?
As for the picture of you getting stuck in traffic above, isn't that like half the population of Montana in that one picture there? :rofl...
If I wasn't such a die hard Rocky Mountain fan boy, the Bottlerocket would probably be my next bike. It looks like a DJ with suspension in the back. I like the black paint job.
May it bring you many hours of trail-shredding fun!
What part of Australia do you live in?
Sure thing. Per the PM I sent you, I'm in the middle of my own work, so I can appreciate work like this done by others.
One thing you might want to consider is water sealing your timber. That's why I asked what type of logs they were. Unless they're cedar. If you plan on having those...
