Title: Epic - 9th June 2007
Post by: Trev on June 13, 2007, 12:34 AM
Ok guys, I think I've got it on here.  I've finally managed to get this online, although I think it's cut the last couple of minutes off.  :(

Billy-BMX has been bugging me for this since he left the park and now I've got his old man on my case too..... so enjoy....

I apologise in advance for the poor filming.  I'm no SuperBikeDan.  Guess I'll be sticking to riding....

everyone needs to start somewhere. they will never get better unless they get opportunities to ride on proper ramps. a lot of people will feel imtimidated riding these parks when they're full of kids, so this is a chance for them to enjoy themselves when no one gives a fook about their standard of riding.

I would so be one of those bad riders! I like the sheepish way that he came of the ramp but the camera was still rolling and he had no choice but to get back on. Aaaaaaaaaaaah. So me! ;D

I wish i could still do it. :'(

there is a couple of minutes more, but for some reason it cuts off at 15 minutes.  but you've pretty much got it there.

Great video Trev, wish I could have been there.  Hopefully we will be able to do a family vacation to the UK and France in 08, I would love to go to one of those meets, Rom, Epic or whatever.

Yes the whole family will be in tow.  I just bought a 91 Dyno VFR (16") for my son because he said he is ready for handbrakes.  And the next time I am there I WILL have a helmet and pads, I did not feel comfortable on a bike after 15 years of not riding.

Trev, I think it's gonna take more than a year before I can do inverted 540's again, regular 540's MAYBE.  Then again I would have thought it was going to take longer than 10 minutes to get three feet out at Carlo's last year.  I still need to get a bike  :crazy2:

Carlo's showed me the pics of you last year at his ramp.  Considering you hadn't ridden a ramp for 15 years, they were bloody amazing.

Mate it was a great night and great to meet you!  you were trying well hard mate and that's what counts!  when you jumped on my bike you were getting higher and higher on that vert ramp mate!

I couldn't watch it at work and i'm having trouble with the old buffering at home....but i've watched half of it and it really brings home to me what a fooking superb night it was!  great people and a great vibe!  i wish it was nearer as i'd be there every week!

Post by: Trev on June 13, 2007, 07:05 PM
i was chatting to pickle about this today.  doing it again too soon and too often would take away something from the event.  was gonna wait a couple of months, but then MK is on.  so we'll probably look at doing something after that.  watch this space...
Title: Re: Epic - 9th June 2007
Post by: pickle on June 13, 2007, 07:22 PM
yeah would also look to open it up to the same group first....then for the ones that can't make it, open those places on a first come first served basis.

sorry if that sounds a little cr@p but when Trev and i sorted the event it took a fair while to fill it up.....and a big thank you for those that did! as Trev stumped up the full deposit of £200! so he did take a big gamble......and out of loyalty those same people deserve a crack at the next one first.   :daumenhoch:

Great vid Trev :4_17_5: thanks for capturing the night's escapades. Sometimes its easy to forget some of the stuff that went on or if you've missed other stuff goin on in the park.

Nice one....and big up to everyone on the night :daumenhoch:

at least you had a go...  at too many of this meets, too many people feel too intimidated to ride and just watch the others.  i want everyone to at least have a go.  you paid the same as everyone else, so are entitled to ride as much as anyone else.

your riding also improved as the night went on.  as i was riding too, i didn't have the camera on all night, so couldn't capture everyones progress.  the next event will show everyone's improvement.

I enjoyed it, and will be back to push myself further next time, it may take a while but i'm in no rush to pick up a big injury. :daumenhoch:

just ride within your limits, don't push too hard too quickly and most importantly make sure you enjoy it.
