@FGBrandon Cool story bro!

[mikhailnsm]

nice biking. I bike up there to but can't get any good videos lol. I think I should attach my cam to a hermit or the bike. where do you attach the cam?

[fozz47]

@mikhailnsm I made a camera mount out of one of those cheap bike lite clamps, a bolt and some wing nuts so it goes on the handle bars. it was pretty simple and i think I found the directions by googleing "camera mount handlebars". Now I see many things that cyclist and skiiers where that mounts their digital camera on their helmet, which is probably better because it will result in a more steady picture.

@sh4nky some mongooses are nice bikes not the ones at department stores but actuall bmx bikes and it is true that pedaling and shifting can make you go faster in case u didn't know that

[TUGcrew01]

@sh4nky420 you used that little mongoose joke twice

[Dylans503]

@sh4nky420. this is why i have 8 inch rotors. your probably some skater kid

[sh4nky420]

@Dylans503 ahaha yeah i bet your shitty v-brakes do you real good on ur mongoose. while your griping the brake like a faggot. my juciy's are just meant to stop me at the end. ahah scrub trying to sound all technical and shit. ill jump on my bike and mob it as fast as possible down that shit no need for brakes. your just hit up pussy ass shit 24/7. powell butte is so small and pathetic runs that if your tellin me you need brake then your a lieing ass faggot about being a racer.

[Dylans503]

@sh4nky420 and while you stop pedaling cause your going "to fast" for the corner. im still pedaling and using my brakes at the apex to make the corner as fast as possible. im guessing you dont race

[Dylans503]

@sh4nky420 how do you go faster? shift? pedal?

your one of those kids who thinks brakeless is faster. while your coasting down the the mountain im pedaling. and while your pedaling as fast you can, im shifting up.

learn to go faster

[sh4nky420]

@Dylans503 how do you go faster than no brakes faggot? ur one of the stupid kids that either eat shit and clog the trails or are walking it cuz the only bike you got is a broken ass mongoose
