    SF, how about making sure the bike is capable, with no wear in suspension or brakes and correct settings for you before trying to go faster on all the wrong settings?....
    ride at the same speed youre doing now with the bike set up to work with you, then progress from there, the bike reacting in the right way will require a different input and body position from a bike thats worn/set up wrong...............
    good pics tho, looks like a fun day (also the lack of cars in the photos was good) :-)

    The brakes work quite well actually! Some nice, kind chap fixed them in return for a kebab :P

    Suspension will be shortly as well

    .....thats not the "proper style" that has more to do with a surgeon taking a muscle out of my back and putting it into my leg.....hahaha... i only ride like that cos ive got a fecked leg and back....hahahaha....

    might be best to watch someone who's actually doing it right :-)

    Men??? Didn't you hear, I said I was following Jaydee! ;D ;D

    It is a perfect roundabout. Quiet, nice tarmac, no gravel or bumps, and on a warm sunday evening, there aren't many places like it to have a bit of fun on the bike without annoying too many people.
