Okay biker dude 101, first off your sister must be an amazing biker then. And if your really gonna say stuff like that keep it to yourself, I wouldn't have minded if you said something like " This is okay,but not POD worthy", instead you had to go right for the guy's juggular and insult him directly. Not cool at all so inturn with your comment, until your shot of you jumping a 30 foot drop is POD...try to keep the comment's..erm...relatively nice.

flag tvsucksrideyourbike (August 16, 2007 at 10:50) (Below Threshold) show comment
Dirtjumping is not "stupid" a solar powered flashlight, or submarine screen doors, or even powdered water is stupid. Dirtjumping is awsome because there is so much you can do and new tricks are always poping up so it's always inflating. Where most style's or riding are dying out like road riding. For example take a gander at all the scandals in this years Tour de France. So all-in-all don't cop up any riding style unless you have mastered it and can do every trick so you got bored. Because I know for a fact that you can't DJ since you said that.

flag brule (August 16, 2007 at 12:10) (Below Threshold) show comment
The DJ section tends to have great shots, but like the street section most of the great pics show a rider with no lid on. We go through so many shots each day, but I want to see riders wearing helmets. I don't care how rad the shot is-no lid= no POD if I have a say. But you are also right, DJs are sick and you can always progress them.

flag tvsucksrideyourbike (August 16, 2007 at 12:24) (Below Threshold) show comment
I hear you I don't understand why rider's don't use a helmet, my dad loves to ride XC and always wear's his lid and he wouldn't let me ride without it, even though I still wouldn't ride without it. It's not making you look uncool, because what's really uncool is when your in a wheelchair because you wouldn't wear a 30$ peice of "safety" equipment that would save you a lot of agony in the long run.

Okay since I know your refering to me ille say this, the shot is amazing, epic even. I just enjoy a different kind of biking style. It's like you don't go onto the trial riding section if your a road biker or onto the dirtjuming section if you ride XC. Everyone has the right to an opinion and I expressed mine. If I upset anyone, my bad, but i'm really perplexed that anyone would get mad at me half the world away for typing my 100 character opinion.

Most people can't look from different riding sytles. You know how I know this? Because of people like biker dude 101 (7th Comment under first) who just come blaintly out and put people down. At least I didn't say anything like " Wow this sucks" I just said I, ME, not anyone else, would like to see an action shot. Maybe I should have kept my mouth shut, but I am entitled to an opinion wheter everyone likes it or not right? And you are totally right, I do enjoy riding more than dirtjumping, heck riding down the street to get milk is enough fun, just being able to ride is awesome.

when i begun biking a few months ago , i was seeing this sport as a relief from every day stress ,i consider that riding is about nature, is about you being different , about laughing with your friends without saying stupid jokes,taking drugs,alchol .But now I see that all that does mater is being better than everyone else,always comparing with others,this way you can't enjoy riding , just try to became better, for what? Is not wrong, but not the main reason.
This pic. tells me "I don't care how good others are, i enjoy riding".

Its all about having a great time, and learning new experiences with your good friends.
