Great stuff. They're pretty small jumps to be doing can-cans.

Last time I was up in Launceston we went down to the skate park. I wasn't too keen to have a go on Martyn's DMR though. I suck a Erbon. Badly.

The can cans and supermans are to the flat. If I can get my feet back on in time they aren't to unsmooth, but there is always room for improvement.

Hopefully I will get down to Hobart pretty soon, I'll give all you Hobart boys a shout when I do...

Possibly...

I'm not sure though. I haven't been DHilling with any of the guys with duals yet, hopefully next weekend.

Do you know some guys from Launnie?


The Ryde is going so sick!
I put it through a hucking session yesterday and it held up perfectly!

No i just got back froma trip to Tasmania and while driving through Launceston i saw a guy with a white dualie and a white full face.

It wouldn't be a 2003 Norco A-line with a white and red 661 helmet, would it?

If it was I know the fella.... That's the only guy I know with a white DH bike.


The bikes are a Norco Ryde, and a DMR Sidekick.




Hmm, I'll think about it Chewy. :wink:

You da man B.

Wait till you all see the B-man super move! It's da shizziat and all dat. Word.
Uhh Yeah.

No taste in bikes though, that Storm thing (the b's next conquest) looks like open heart surgery gone wrong.

Good thing we talked you out of it, eh.
