Here's my 2 cents:
Damn Sam - there's nothing shabby about any of that! I'm exceedingly jealous of the air of the volc and the tyre slide to abubaca. Also if you can get that close to t-downing that pyramid you'll be laughing at the trails. Seriously good effort...

Yeah Sam. That was shockingly good, especially that line at Tivi just before the rain...
I need to ride. So does Richmond. I hear his bike calling to him from my shed at night time.

I don't think that there is enough incentive to sign up for an account on this forum. All this time and I am STILL a junior member. By the way Sam, your volc airs on that vide are great.

Woaah Tom, I was just expecting a sentence or two and not an entire paragraph with accompanying appreciation thread! Thanks a lot! Really glad you all enjoyed it anyway, but it would be better if this weather would give us a chance to put together a video with everyone riding and some trails action! I've said it a lot, but congratulations Tom and Kate. I had such a good time and it was great to see everyone. The wedding standard has been set! Anyway, it was the best day I've had in ages so thank you so much! Alex - You must be cast free now? How's it doing?

Oh and Olive - are you still around? We need to go riding if the weather ever holds off!

good effort on the vid Sam, enjoyed that! where is the park with the spine to wallride? is that Tiverton maybe...?
cast comes off early wednesday morning, so maybe some sort of trail action on sunday... if not i start a new 9-5ish job for a year on monday which will probably limit riding time in the week although does mean free weekends and the flexitime scheme looks pretty sweet!
Also i was meant to be heading down to portreath to watch a ''slopestyle'' comp for the weekend 13th and 14th but its been cancelled, so high possibility of riding then! after 7 weeks of not riding definitely need to get on the bike asap!
cheers

This thread title needs changing to one with a more general appreciation nature... http://fotojo.wordpress.com/ I'm leaving my comment here because I'm never sure whether Joe checks the comments on his own site. Yeeeaaah Joe! That was awesome! The luc-e to tooth and wall to rail were awesome! Also, to anyone that hasn't ridden the heavitree park - doing any kind of rotation on that pump bump of doom is surprisingly difficult! Anyway, I really enjoyed that Joe, especially as you made it out despite flood threats and high wind speeds (the trees in the vid are blowing all over the place). Fortunately I know that you have about a million more lines up your sleeve than that video portrays, so a JLC edit may be coming soon (weather pending)! Cheers!
