"Simon Mason" wrote in message om... Cycling home last night at 2230, I was vaguely aware of something over my right shoulder. Soon after, a young lad about 14 years old, no lights of course, came past me doing a non-stop wheely. He then kept going through a busy junction past a red light and still only riding on his back wheel, looked back with a "chase me" face. He seemed most put out when I stopped at the red light rather than rising to the bait. Simon Mason Hull Almost a cuplrit for a pump thru the spokes? ) |

I remember once pulling up to some lights and, looking to my right, a young sallow-faced youth pulling a very impressive stoppie up to the dashed white lines. I was actually pretty impressed - it's quite a difficult move, so I'm told... -- Succorso |

A bike shop bloke told us "I like them, they break lots of bike bits." I saw some trials riders doing a demonstration outside last years bike show in Islington - the comentator said they owned their own specialist bike bits company. I suppose they worked out it was cheaper with the Victor Kyam approach. I can't remember their names, but I was seriously impressed. -- Jim Price http://www.jimprice.dsl.pipex.com Conscientious objection is hard work in an economic war. |
