Sir Fallsalot

The funniest memory like that for me was back when i had my old YZ490, i used to ride through the local forestry to get to the coal tip to play and used the same route every time so i knew it well. The one part was a Stoney track about 6ft wide, it started with a 50 yard dash off the forestry road to an S bend and after that it was a long right hand curve about quarter of a mile long up a steep hill through the trees with an even steeper drop off into the trees to the left, after the S bend i'd have the throttle wide open and just kick it up the box as i'd done many times before there, but this time as i approached the top two mountain bikers appeared and the cocks were side by side it happened so fast i didn't hit the brakes until i was on top of them, the one on the right just fell against the banking but the one on the left went over the edge into the forestry, i only stopped to see if he survived and judging by the way he was clambering back up to the track waving his fist at me he did so i just fucked off, Never went over there again because it was the time when mountain bikes started becoming popular they spoilt a lot of places for me fucking hate the entitled pricks with the exception of the ones on here of course

Almost as quick as me heading across site to the shitter today

Yes you were ripped off you could have bought an annual bus pass for that and saved your street cred

Yes my bike was my only mode of transport as it was cheap back then but definitely the other way around now

How were bikers treated back then Pedro, i got into road bikes in the late 80's and there were very few cafe's or pubs that would allow you in, there were even signs outside some places saying no bikers and it was even worse in the 70's

Why stop there no more pics of Xtreme at all

Yup my first thoughts were the same, he wanted everyone to back him up and stroke his ego, who the fuck joins a forum and their first post is a question, only someone looking for attention.

Where you to there Bob

Just came on here to get some answers to his question probably posted it on hundreds of sites and got the hump when @pedro told him to stop being a wimp

It's 4WD, he was doing maintenance on that Merthyr Byway trying to get the route passable for 4x4's so they can build up some user evidence to help fight Merthyr councils proposal to put a TRO on there nice bloke

I said fuck it and went out on the XR pretty much the same route as i did on the Dog yesterday the wind and rain showed up mid afternoon i got home after dark, wetter than an otters pocket at least i don't have to wash the bike and all the mud has been washed off my jacket LOL You can't park there mate LOL

What red blooded man wouldn't want to drive that

Wondering the same thing here Clive not sunny and no wind at all

This is the one in Merthyr that's not on any map and nobody knew about it but that was until Merthyr council announced plans to close it and posted up its location online, shot themselves in the foot by doing that as now the TRF are involved with it. i used to ride it in my youth unaware that it was a byway. There's about 5 short byways all joined together

After seeing the pube grooming and groin photos in this place recently i thought i'd try to drag the place out from the gutter and post a few bike photo's. I met up with some TRF members at Greggs in Porth this morning and tagged along with them on a few local lanes and then split off from them for a gentle plod about on my own. It was damn cold with a strong wind blowing Waved goodbye here after a slice of Christmas cake and I headed up to Merthyr Took my mountain road and then decided since i was in the area to take the dog along the new to me byway and do a bit of lane maintenance. First bit of clearing work Next one was passible but meant slowing to a stop to get under it so that had to go as well Removed this bit caught me out when i rode the Beta through here as i thought it was just some brambles but when i rode into them there was a load of logs in there, looks like a few have been through since my last visit and cleared the brambles a bit, would have been hard work on the dog so had a little tidy up here as well Last bit to clear was on the path coming down on the right, there was just some small branches to clear so easy enough, the turn down here was a bit tight for the dog and i had to try and bounce the front wheel back to get around which wore me out for the climb out of the stream and i was really overheating when i got out despite the cold weather There was no way my hand saw was going to clear this so i done a U turn and found a way around the rest of the byway was clear apart from the usual gates and some ice But no problem for the mighty dog On the way home i found out what Six30 was doing down this way a few months ago doing an insurance job on one of his old bangers i think lol

That's called accidental spilling not something i wanted to do LOL

Cheeky fecker I've never pissed the bed, now shit well that's a different story

Luckily i don't buy it i get it all free from work, but i think i would end up buying one if it was taken away as i know how it works.

Like one of these you mean

Last time i bumped into Phil he said him and Cabbage had given up the trail bikes and both got Harleys LOL

Yes not the best looking exhaust but i think the B King exhaust has to be up there, the back end looks like it belongs in a cartoon to me.

This is Bobs reply to this lol

I have fond memories of ST Malo from my youth, its the first place i'd ever been where they were topless sunbathing on the beach i spent most of my time there LOL

And something to hook all the hair out the shower drain or any drain, it seems to be a job i have to do every month even the boy has hair like he's a reincarnation of someone from a 70's rock band wouldn't be a problem if i was here on my own LOL

that's a proper carb strip down i hate doing that on one carb never mind four.
