JonwithoutaH (May 7, 2012 at 1:16)

kipmtb12345 (May 7, 2012 at 1:36)

thelumberjack (May 7, 2012 at 2:26)

I live in Swansea - I've seen pictures but I've never actually felt or seen dust..... ever.

+ 20

JonwithoutaH (May 7, 2012 at 2:55)

Swansea, shit you'd of never seen the "sun" then Big Grin

JJ-The-Scott (May 7, 2012 at 4:02)

swansea, you obviously weren't at gethin last year, ive never actually seen more dust, video, photo or real life! haha!

Ollie-Bhutani (May 7, 2012 at 4:11)

The word "dust" has not been spoken in the UK for hundreds of years..

JackDirt (May 7, 2012 at 5:17)

except used in the same sentence as "Borris Johnsons Cock"

pigman65 (May 7, 2012 at 5:18)

"Dust",'tis but a myth !

EddyDave (May 7, 2012 at 6:01)

You can always rely on those of us from the UK to complain about the weather.

With good reason, it sucks!! Big Grin

wesdadude (May 7, 2012 at 7:08)

You guys don't really want dust. It's terrible as soon as you want to build something.

jervis (May 7, 2012 at 7:33)

hey UK riders, in exchange for some of that nice sandy clay dirt I see in every UK dirt jump video you can have the dust that my trails turn into every summer here in Australia...

JonwithoutaH (May 7, 2012 at 7:45)

That's probably down south Razz

im a From yorkshire not complaining tho I like the mud makes riding that bit more fun Big Grin

Turanz (May 7, 2012 at 9:03)

up here in scotland however, the mud is rich in boulders! so its kinda of like playing pac man but the ghosts have leather jackets and iron bars and u only get one life. on another note, in scotland when the sun comes out we have to sacrifice a heard of cattle to appease the sun god so that we have an hour of sun! HAIL SUNGOD!

davidstuartkelly (May 7, 2012 at 9:21)

Sacrifice some cattle please, going to be in Onich 25th may for 4 days. Fort william too..

Turanz (May 7, 2012 at 9:33)

traded them all for some magic beans bro, sorry Wink

hybridmoments04 (May 7, 2012 at 17:25)

Southern-Californian here. I dream of one day riding trails that AREN'T just dust and rocks.

Turanz (May 7, 2012 at 18:28)

well come over and try our rain mud rain puddles rain slippery rocks and um... rain yeah thats about it here! u'll wanna go home soon enough Wink

pigman65 (May 9, 2012 at 0:59)

@ hybridmoments04 did you eat Turanz's magic beans ?

Turanz (May 9, 2012 at 4:22)

cougar797 (Aug 1, 2012 at 8:29)

Gentlemen I am here to tell you that dusty and dry is over rated. Mud is an ass pain to clean but it beats no or loose dry scarce soil.

davidstuartkelly (Aug 1, 2012 at 8:50)

^^^^^^TURANZ has got it covered for me too!!!^^^^^^^^

Turanz (Aug 1, 2012 at 16:17)

david you and your cougar have no idea, in scotland rain has +9 to strength and a killer special move.

cougar797 (Aug 2, 2012 at 6:04)

Haha, understood.

kzuma (May 7, 2012 at 0:38)

Looks like the front wheel isn't even touching the ground. Impressive.

nhillerby (May 7, 2012 at 0:41)

i dont think it is, but then again, it could be just barely touching

yjgfikl76 (May 7, 2012 at 1:24)

Haha he slammed the corner so hard the rebound in his fork made it float. What a boss.

bikeddict (May 7, 2012 at 3:50)

does anyone have photo evidence that he actually rides out of this?

nhillerby (May 7, 2012 at 4:54)

seriously, it looks like his bars clipped hard enough to throw the front wheel off center and make his crash.

steveissilly (May 7, 2012 at 6:06)

steveissilly, I can't see a need to double post... Whereas you could have just propped him instead.

dannyw22 (May 7, 2012 at 6:27)

His left foot is off the pedal, his front wheel is off the ground, he is bar dragging alot, this dude is going down.

Turanz (May 7, 2012 at 9:07)

if u study the photo hard enough u'll realise that hes actually not trying to turn the corner, he's slide tackling a tree monster.

[Reply]

doorknob100 (May 7, 2012 at 0:58)

Only in a perfect world would he pull that one out. I really really want to think he did because this picture is gnarly but I just don't see how haha.

RRAY (May 7, 2012 at 22:43)

bikesam (May 7, 2012 at 17:50)

He rode out of it! Ya seb! Awesome!!

[Reply]

continuity (May 7, 2012 at 10:40)

I told you guys you'd pay for your ULTRA WIDE handlebars fad. If he'd have been riding classic 600mm's he'd have cleaned that. The more you know.
