    if your serious about a bike share your gonna really need to think about parts. some one WILL come off learning to wheelie, bit of a bugger if 7 of you just bought the bike, and the person who comes off is the first to ride it and breaks the clutch lever!!!

    wheelies are fun and i do recomend goin to a bike wheelie school for a day if your a total novice at wheelies and dont wanna run the risk of dumping your own bike (or a shared one). But then after either are you then willing to risk damaging your bike once you feel you have mastered it? wheelies differ imensly bike to bike.

    I know a girl that used them. She managed to wheelie their bike, has never managed to lift hers though.

    Oh, also, if you ask JB, he's probably most happy to teach you. He doesn't charge and his wheelies are EPIC!

    is he on here too???.... ;-)

    yeah, no worries, the shared bike idea is good, so is the "buy a few spares before hand" idea.....
    i would also be prepared to show the owners some great tracks across salisbury plain (offroading) and also help with the maintenance too........

    i think Monster man should start a list of potential owners...

    think Noaksy was interested before when the shared offroader was suggested....

    (only one note, a 600cc offroader JUST as an offroader is a big beast....BUT it makes a DAM good wheelie tool)....

    i'd love a lesson, i can get it up, it's just the distance thing i need to learn (run out of revs)

    have the ultimate wheelie bike too, KTM supermoto, so no real excuse other than rider knowledge

    There will be a wheelie machine at the Kings Arms, Hilperton, Nr Trowbridge next Saturday. Details are up in the Black Horse, Trowbridge.
    We are going to give it a go.
