Sa cyclists

[MINIHORSE]

Just thought I'd throw up a thread for those of us whom enjoy sitting on our Durf/Gooch/Notcha for extended periods of time.....Whether its
-BMX
-Downhill
-Roadie
-Penny Farthing
-UniCycle
-Fixed
-Recumbant
-Tandem
..you get my point

What do you ride?

Where do you ride it?

Bikes...Circa 2005 Black Specialized P1 Single Speed, dirt Jumpers
Ride...Street, Dirt Jump, Long Distance Peleton

[skizzamods]

I ride fixed..

Bike.. Repco Traveler, it's not shiny and mint but it works well..

I plan on building it up at some stage.. metalic brown frame :) velocity deep V's, will be good

I ride it on the flats.. so i have to drive to town.. not very practical really

[MINIHORSE]

Id LOVE to build a fixie, but I choose not to follow that particular trend....that said....I probably still will

[skizzamods]

I like it because its quick, not much can go wrong with it

[Javal]

I thought this was one of those threads where we rag on the cyclists in lycra who don't know the road rules.

I am dissapoint.

[benzo]

Ride bmx.

Fit team trail frame. Fit/Odyssey/Animal/Colony/Shadow Conspiracy

I ride street, park, occasionally dirt jump

[svenmate]

I used to lock rears and skid my sister's bicycle.

Does that mean I can be in the cool club too?

[AJPS]

I ride a $40 dodsun "mountain bike". Its good and i dont need to care about it.

Also - fixed gear bikes in adelaide. Defeat the purpose of riding a bike (99% of users) Fashion accessory, and there is no hills to make it a challenge.

[slide86]

i dont ride, but i am the shuttle run king at fox creek when my mates come up. they all have big dollar bikes that i know nothing about.....

i live 4 mins from the track and get the privilege of driving them to teh top of the runs after they come down

[takai]

I was wondering when Elliot was going to stick his head in here...

[Kid Karola]

Will have to dust off the old BMX when I'm home, put air back into tyres and go for a shred!

[Konakid]

Did a skid once.

[-elliot-]

Did a skid once.

lies and slander...

[Konakid]

Nah was pretty fun, leant over the bars to get more distance, got about 30 metres, pretty rad.

[-elliot-]

8993

konakid used to go so fast he had to wear goggles to keep his eyes from gettting pushed into his brain

[MINIHORSE]

This would explain his unusually recessed occular cavity, must have been Pre-goggle deformity

[Konakid]

Hurry up frietag.

Seems like quite a few of you are Tredly orientated.....

[doots]

i got a fixed gear pushie with front shocks no brakes and broken crank. was fun till i broke it though.
used to be a lycra rider till i decided they gave bike riders a bad name. to any road runners on picadilly road next time you swerve infront of me when i'm trying to overtake i'll just hit you.

this is me putting hate on lycra

[Harris]

ride downhill dirt and park :)
leaf d2 and intense socom yo

[cracker]

ride bmx its the only way

still have my next generation dirt bike make by s&m USA

[skizzamods]

wont have a fixed gear much longer.. over it, want to be able to coast, so either single speed or gears

[Slimer86]

warning that 2000+ lycra clad peoples on bikes will be going from Glenelg to Victor Harbor tomorrow via Stiriling, Medows, Willunga hill.
Could make for some very unpleasant viewing.

[dropz]

good ol 2 wheels. the memories are strong.

just been getting back into it to get into shape a bit lately. managed to score an 06 kona shred from a mate. it works for the hills around blackwood/belair. at the moment just going along dirt roads and the streets, but hope to get back into downhilling and dirt jumping along the way.

during my child hood i rode many bikes, as did we all, but the 2 i still have are my mongoose pro fuzz bmx and some shit small framed raceline shitter.

i hope to get the mongoose rolling again as its been neglected for many years as we moved around from house to house.

places ive enjoyed riding the most are fox creek bowl track, one of the tracks around old belair/ brownhill (can't remember the name), the park on ayliffes road (my family has some history with that track ;) ) and the track i used to race at in happy valley.

dont have any photos of the bikes, sadly. i should try and get some, if i do ill throw them up.

Nah, Fox Long/Bowl is much better than Bennetts.

[MINIHORSE]

I like any track that requires speed, so fox steep is out of the question...Not a huge fan of technical stuff...But yeah fox long is a good course

[Harris]

fox bowl aint around anymore haha, all Sa downhill tracks kinda fail haha

[millhouse]

they re did fox bowl, im pretty sure its back from the dead.

[takai]

Bowl was redone about 6 months ago and reopened. Its good fun again.

[Harris]

yeah but they got rid of the rad accual bowl section, the new one just has a massicve flat pedal to the bottom car park

[Konakid]

FAIL

Bowl was the shit, first track i ever raced and it got me hooked, havent ridden it since then.

New bike this week yay.

[MINIHORSE]

What trusty steed might we be seeing Lord McLeay upon.......Huffy on Tuffs? Chix w/Dix on Fixies.....? SHogun Stump Jumper?

[biggo]

He shall be pushing his "pushie"

can someone explain the vulgar term to a non pusher?

[Joel-AE86]

I've ridden BMX most of my life.

Used to race in my early teens, then stuck to dirt jumping, building trails and street riding.

I've been around the traps:

- Entered a few volatile visions comps: Skate'98, Kamakazie Karnival, few other events
- Made it onto a few vv videos
- Built a trail with mates for a good 7 years up near blackwood
- Involved in rebuilding Hawthorndene bmx track and also building blackwood skate park

I still have my bike but have fucked knees and a few surgeries so I'm a little slow these days.

BMX for LIFE.

Limited gears is good, i have 9 on the DH bike and 4 on the 4X bike.... Wife has more gears on her pushie than all of mine put together.
