August 29, 200718 yr I'm called Big John, but I'm certainly not as big as you! I'd say you would win hands down. Big John

Any other colossal riders out there?Hey I'm on the wrong side of 19stone (use to feel sorry for my bike) it don't half hurt when you go a pisser don't it.Always used to wind up the nuts on the springs to adjust suspension but now leave it standard and it seems fine these modern water cooled bikes sure have plenty of power to compensate my bulk!
August 29, 200718 yr Citytrials,Did they run a interview on speedchannel once about Ric? I think I seen it, he's a MXER! He does both, I think. On vintage bike no less. Edited August 29, 200718 yr by swooshdave

August 30, 200718 yr R.V question: faced with a nasty 6 foot climb your not keen on do ride it and hope you make it, or do put one foot on the ground and then stretch your other to the top of the climb like Mr Fantastic from the fantastic four film and lift the bike up taking a two?

I usually smash into it at Mach 2 in a hopes the bike and I will be hurled to the top. I might try the Mr. Stretch thing next time, thanks for the tip. "World's Largest" can also be read as "Least Competitive".
September 10, 200718 yr I'm 6'6" but nowhere near that big. I have a question because I am having problems with this, the bikes are all built for the average Joe (5'8" 180 lbs.) what mods have you done to get your bike comfortable? I can't even find a decent set of bars for my bike.
