Mountain Biking - Bored on Saturday

I was taking pics of my bike out in the yard and thought, 'hey, maybe I could get a pic of myself dropping off the hill'. Problem is, I don't think my camera has a timer. It is kind of cheap-or I am ******** and can't figure out the timer. Or a little of both. At any rate, I hope you enjoy this lame video of me playing in my back yard.

you should call that video "anticipation" and I'm jealous of your weather.

I used to have a friend that had a super nintendo set up in the cabinet right across from the dumphole. It blew my freakin mind. Seems like small potatoes now compared to a mac.

that would be AWESOME!!!! some might wonder whats going on in the crapper when they hear me either giggling like a schoolgirl, or dropping a bunch of F-bombs.


Truth be told, i was hoping the video would be of you jumping off the wall, or coming from the other side of the wall towards the camera..... that wouldve been sweet.

i would have been impressed if you would have dropped in off that wall. :D

If I would have been dropping off the wall my post would have been much less self-deprecating. Sorry to disappoint you all. I said it was lame.

No need for an apology. You said it was lame, I watched it anyway, you didn't lie.

Good stuff though, makes me want a camcorder, but I don't think that is happening anytime soon.

Where in Cali are you? I just heard on the news some areas are getting pounded with rain and snow. Looked like you were pretty far from that though. I went for a ride today, about 20F when I went out. I too am jealous of your weather.

I would have liked to see you riding along the wall, left to right, going up the step-ups. Then, while you near the edge of the cameras frame, get off the saddle, swing onto the front of the bike, and roll the bike using your foot on the front wheel, going back the other way on the wall.. Then, do a 360 off the wall.


That would be the only way to redeem yourself.

I'll get right on it.

LOL, nice weather you have

LOL

....

lol i want to know what's behind that wall

Got a problem with me overusing the LOL phrase?

You know, back in the forums I moderate, we call what your doing spam.

You know, back in the forums I moderate, we call what your doing spam.

Back in my day, there were no fancy "acronyms".

Get with the times man.. LOl j/k
I really have no clue what were talking/ arguing about LOL

LOL

That.

LOL is not to be used as punctuation. Ever.

and why not?

and why not?

Because LOL, along with multiple exclamation points, are not proper grammar, they are to never be used as punctuation. A period, question mark or single exclamation point will always suffice.

Sorry about your boredom, I give you alot of credit, I don't think I would of posted that. Uneventful comes to mind while watching your vid. I guess what makes it worse is the fact that you can see something other than snow. Why not post vids of your good looking (female) neighbor (of legal age:eek:) doing the same. Then I would be ok with the no snow thing. :o

and why not?

Because nothing you've posted to date is remotely entertaining, let alone laugh out loud funny.

Sad but true.

You know what? That cheesy drop was a lot of fun for me, so all of you haters can suck it. I will not be ashamed of being a beginner, and I don't see why sharing my fun with others-whether they ridicule me for it or not-is wrong in any way.

Also-you may want to chill on the lols Cheeto. You will always catch flack from crotchety old internet dudes if you don't.

I've got to say something.. This is the internet, you can't possibly expect people not to use Internet language.
I mean, its a common, overused phrase. Adapt and overcome. you people are killing me.
Im the freaking Head Cadet Moderator for a Military based forums, and we, are not even that Anal about this crap.

and although were not on the same political terms, I agree with the above,
Leave him alone, he was just trying to share some fun, Atleast hes getting out there and riding instead of nit-picking abut grammar over the internet, with all due respect.

(This whole paragraph is full of mistakes that I don't feel like pointing out. I do however see missed capitalizations and merged words.)

Excuse me while I pick apart your grammar.


I'm also praying that I don't have any mistakes in my post.

Please, if you feel the need to, go right ahead

Olean, I watched it....

I'll tape you going down Rock It and post that. It'll still look lame, but hey,
we're on our bike in the sun, not watching 'em from a snowed in house! LOL....
Damn it was cold today. I think it went down to 60.. bbrrr..... LOL....


edit; my grammar sucks, my spelling suck, I don't know much internet acronyms..
and, I don't care... LOL....

I don't know, but I want to badly. I need to clean Cholla. I know I can do it.

I cleaned cholla for the first time a month ago.
Well, that's not entirely true, I did have one dab, but never dismounted.
Also went down Lynx for the first time, short and sweet..

My boss is a DH racer and since those rides he has taken me down some singletrack that makes rock it look like Sunset Boulevard. Did I walk a lot? Yes.

While ProFail did not go about the AOL'ese problem tactfully, he does bring up a good point. Nobody here really wants these forums to turn into a WOW-fest with "lotz of lulz!!!111!". Writing with correct (or as correct as possible) grammar is more of a common courtesy that one should try to extend toward the other forum members who are reading through the post. It gets tedious reading "LOL" when something wasn't funny. This is not to say that "LOL" cannot be used, but Cheeto you said it best "a common, overused phrase. I think it gets to a point where the usage of "LOL" becomes more of a habit/tic than the person who is typing actually laughing out loud. So, if we can please keep the rhetoric on a more mature level, I am sure everybody will be satisfied.

While ProFail did not go about the AOL'ese problem tactfully, et cetera.

NO U!

NO U!

I wouldn't understand most AOL'ese anyway.
most internet acronyms go right over my head... woosh.... did you see that??

Ad Hominem, Et Cetra


Caps Lock Is Cruise Control For Cool Punctuation Is For Squares


Edit- G'damn. No caps lock for me.

LOL, is just something people put.


So I guess you can't use phrases like: " RD, FR, DT, LBS, BC, etc" because it is not correct grammer.
-_-

Learn sarcasm. I'm not a "hypocrit".

We can use acronyms such as RD, FR, LBS, et cetera because they're commonly accepted acronyms in the biking world. You seem to hold grudges, Cheeto.

Never speak ill of, or reference with silly acronyms , the Flying Spaghetti Monster.

sweet nosepick stall drop in to 'talewhip fakie' no footed can can reverse. I would have thrown in a Roast beef grab for extra style points.

Yes I can hold a grudge a while.
But you, are not a grudge yet...
Just seems to me that you like to try to rip me apart, but when I try to defend myself, you turn it around and make it seem like I'm doing stuff Im not.
You, can't even accept the term "LOL" and your telling me to learn sarcasim?
Wow.
Well, this is the internet, and LOL is a "commonly accepted acronym in the internet.
