It doesn't snow here very much.
-
For all of you who were afraid to ride today at 128th and Dynamite, you missed a great time. First it rained, and then it snowed.

My apologies, like I said, I am still working on the site and that. Just PM me which ones or from which URL and I'll remove them.
-
I'm working on developing one right now. Keep in mind it's not close to finished. It has maybe 5000 - 10000 trials related pictures of bikes, vintage bikes, riders, parts, etc.

Wow! Will has quite the setup!
-
Awesome, and you are welcome to come over anytime and ride.
Plunker,
I couldn't find the pictures of Wil's backyard at that link.

A stream would be a nice feature, but that won't be happening anytime soon. Actually you can barely hear the bikes from my front yard so the noise isn't too bad. And I was at 128th street this morning Eric23. Popped a small hole in the clutch case too, oops.
-
My friend was the guy who bought the bike and I was with him. He loves the bike. But has had to replace a lot of stuff on it.
-
He just told me that it has holes and cracks in it so I guess he's getting a new one.

Thanks for the tips Plunker. I was thinking about gravel of some sorts as the dew in the morning, and my sprinklers has turned it into a mud bath. All the grass is gone where I typically ride. But the mud makes it more challenging as we don't get much of that here in the Phoenix desert. My wife is ok though with the course I setup. She knows I am having fun and she has her greenhouse.
-
We're growing all kinds of organic vegetables and herbs like, celery, parsley, artichokes, etc. I think tones is UK for ton. Well I bought 3 tons of rock for $450, plus he threw in a .6 ton one for free because he was late. Plus I borrowed 3 smaller rocks from the desert myself. Yah my buddy stuffed it on that one. I am still building up the courage to try the gap.
And the stand works nice incase you miss. Surprisingly I probably have over 8000lbs of rock back there. But being able to ride whenever I want has really helped me get better. And there has to be over 100 different lines to choose from. Otherwise it's a 30 minute drive to the desert to ride.

I've had my Beta for a year now and I am hooked on Trials. A couple weeks ago, with the wife's permission, I bought 4 tons of boulders for the backyard. So now I try to ride once a day. I have at least 15 trials videos I watch regularly which is driving the wife crazy. Anyways, this site is great! Tomorrow I'll try out the carb fix I found here and go for a backyard spin.

Yah, I meant cubic foot. The guy had a crane and drove down the alley. It had a 20ft reach. I haven't tried moving the big ones yet. I have an engine hoist which hopefully should move them. Can't do it by hand as a couple of them are around a ton. Me and a friend can barely move the 500lbs one. The crane guy said he'd come out for $85/hr to reposition them if needed. I'd only need him for about 15 minutes though.
-
I paid $150 a ton delivered and placed. I learned that rock is heavy! 100lbs per square foot. So a 3 x 3 x 3 boulder weighs over a ton.
-
Just had some boulders delivered to my backyard. Talk about fun! Already popped a tire back there. Here are some pics of the setup:
-
Thanks for the info guys. My friend is going to just bend his back and save the $$$. :agree:
-
I am pretty sure it was a Pro. Not positive though.
-
Why get a new bike if you hardly ride the old one? I ride my 04 Rev3 a few times a week but have lots to learn before I even begin to challenge the bike's capability. But if you have spare cash sitting around, why not?
I know I used to buy the new better looking bikes just because I thought I would look better on them.
-
My friend's 03 Rev3 started leaking oil after taking a few big hits on his last ride. He knew he needed to replace the bash plate soon, now he really does. The price here in the US is $179 for the plate and $40 for the rubber. He checked GasGas prices and the plate was only $79 from Parts Unlimited. I wonder why GasGas is so much cheaper? Anyways, does anybody have one for sale or know where he can get one at a reasonable price? Much appreciated!

Thanks for the info guys! I just bent my stock bars and wanted to go with Protaper since they are nearly indestructible. I'll have to take the bars to the shop to match the bend. I want taller bars so a 3/4" - 1" rise sounds good.
