It's more than I use here. I'm just heading it off at the pass so to speak. I usually ignore it too.

This is par for the course for me.

Did I miss something?

hooligan 12-21-04 07:11 AM

Dude, we can tell who rides here and who doesn't. Attitude and how people talk is how it can show how you ride. I've no doubt that raiyn rides quite a bit.

Maelstrom 12-21-04 10:02 AM

What the heck is a handy ramp? :D

And hammer, that was at 11pm for me. Not late at all :D

geoduck 12-21-04 10:26 AM

What a lovely couple.

Oh yeah... :D

Pretty funny how Raiyn already knew what TRD was talkin' about before he typed it. Don't think I've ever gotten air off one of those. I'll have to try harder.

Chuvak 12-21-04 11:25 AM

yea, those guys are great entertainment :D . Any chance both profiles are created by same person?


Chill Ryin, I’m not getting defensive………It'll be a shame to make you hate me

Nah, talk is cheap. On the internet we are all heroes. I have had the pleasure to ski with a large group of skiers that got together (in Snowbird, Utah) via the internet. What an eye opener. Not everyone was as fantastic a skier as they seemed to be on the internet. :)

There is definately a difference between knowledge and skill. I ride a lot and some technical stuff...but I am not a great rider. I don't usually trust how a person rides till I see them

It also depends on where you come from. Most riders come here, may be awesome at home but get creamed. Dhillers from cali come here and find whislter easy but still find the shore difficult. Shore riders tend to be the most technical riders around but sometimes not the fastest ( dh race speed) so depending on the course may not seem that good. Pretty funny actually :)

forum*rider 12-21-04 02:37 PM

home turf advantage eh?

around here I rule the local Jamba Juice, yup, me and a couple of my riding buddies. So if you want to have a smoothie drinking contest bring it on!:D

Maelstrom 12-21-04 02:43 PM

Nope not home turf at all actually. Different skill levels. You could bring a cali rider up here and he is fine. Get a rider from Texas (this happened to me) and 'usually' they will not be up to par. They thought they were but when decending a few thousand feet...it takes its toll and really seperate riders.

I"m a big boy and I caught air...try it...it's possible :D

swifferman 12-21-04 03:15 PM

what in the name of all that is holy, a handy ramp?

PWRDbyTRD 12-21-04 03:17 PM

yeah...you know the ramp that goes from the road to the sidewalk and b/c of it there are two little "banks" on each side of the ramp...If I see one while I'm out cycling tonight I'll take a pic

Raiyn 12-21-04 03:50 PM

Visual aid time.

Maelstrom 12-21-04 04:00 PM

I didn't know those had a name.

That's what I've always called them.

MadMan2k 12-21-04 04:18 PM

When they make those and don't think about thermal expansion, the side points higher up in the air, so if you're riding on the sidewalk, you can go flying pretty far :P
