flag Unhallowed (Jul 10, 2009 at 10:10)
 It's just water haha, obviously they are fine. Smile

I'd be more worried about the rider, fullface's aren't the most aerodynamic things to go swimming with. Razz

 Yeah haha i would wear a helmet because its not going to hurt landing head first into the water Razz. And its salty water lol, so it will easily make the bike rust?

flag Unhallowed (Jul 10, 2009 at 11:34)
 Aluminum doesn't rust. And most of the bike is covered in paint.
Take 30seconds with fresh water and your cassette/chain/etc is all perfectly fine.

And the lack of tidal markings makes me think it's a lake, which has a good chance of being fresh water anyways. Razz

 Still i wouldnt wana ride my bike in there, i would love to have a go though on another bike thats I wouldnt care if it brakes. And i dunno like its blue water which is most likerly to be the sea because if it was a lake with all that sun there it would have weeds on the floor. Wink

flag sammie (Jul 10, 2009 at 13:00)
 By the looks of it they are in a chalk quarry, which would explain the colour of the water and also confirm that it is freshwater. I think id be more concerned about the fact that the guy has no means of ensuring the bike does not sink. Those quarry lakes are often hundreds of meters deep. The thought scares me Big Grin

flag PaulDean (Jul 10, 2009 at 13:15)
 Yeah your right it is a quarry haha and yeah ano Blank Stare Maybe that dude on his own is the person who dives down and goes to get the bikes or sumit lmao. Razz But if this part were their jumping in is deep then i dont think they will see there bikes again :/

 Normaly on pond/lake/river and sea jumps
the rider has innertubes around the bars and seat post.
to stop the bike from sinking. So how was the bike retreived in

 the bike gets super heavy in the water, especially when you're trying to swim with clothes and shoes on, so i'm thinking he must get help from that guy swimming there or something
