comon guys.. theres over 100 shit things??? Get some good vibes happening, What makes you ridE? Why do you ride?

 

[Dicky]

the feeling you get when you know you're on the biggest wheelie you've ever done, and your front wheel's still up. every extra metre is a bonus, and a new challenge for when you turn around to go back again

 

[Dicky]

getting stuck at a standstill on the F3 not so long ago (for at least an hour) and realising there's sweet rigs bolted to about 6 cars around you.

the resulting ability to sit in the middle of the road next to a 110km/h sign with a bunch of riders you've never met before.

 

[stinky|dan]

the feeling of having my bike clean and ready to rock and all my gear ready to go riding, and then waiting for the sound of my mate Luke's dumbass exhaust on his Subaru as he pulls into my driveway. That means that we're about to go riding. Yay!

 

[phreeky]

that feeling you get when you nail that new jump or that new bigger drop or going flat out down some tight and twisty single track
yeh thats why i love it

 

[RaID]

#?) the buzz after hitting something that youve look at for at least half an hour, then not being able to get the smile of your face and no one else understands the feeling

 

[Gonzo]

Knowing that you can go and have an awesome time without having to pay every time. Once you got the bike it's free to ride.

Getting both wheels sliding as you corner and STILL keep pedalling... I love that feeling.

Getting through two trees only juuuust wider than your handlebars, over bumpy ground, at a speed thats like 3 x sensible.

Crashes where you stand up unhurt and just can't believe you're not dead.
