G-Bikers are people 2
I Can't wait to swee some of the footage for the g-bikes. We didn't get any prize, trophy, stickers, or stubby holders. The least the crew from ASRA could do is put up a bit of footage. We don't ask for much but I think the finals should be posted at the very least.Surley somebody out there has some footage. I have pic's. maybe we could trade.

this is getting silly (or petty and destructive if you really want to know ) its a bastard for the GBikers , but what it is is what it is , a world championship event where the organisers are "guided" by the desires of the world body who granted them the right to hold the event . if we loose it then we all have to travel overseas to compete and locally we loose the chance of recognition as the sport grows . this is not mutually exclusive , we all stand to loose if it doesnt work to the standard that IGSA and the sponsors desire . one other comment while I am at it , the commentator needs a competitor and draw list this year so he knows who is passing him

That's correct we also had a bear do a run down the track

o that sux hanghing up the bike but not out yet.im a retired stand up rider had to give it up du to injures.but stuff it im back.if people whant this sport to grow you should help every event.because if all riders worked it out and want more track time do more disaplines.you dont have to push in to get more runs.i would of had the most runs out of most people and will do this year as im in all disaplines except for inline sorry saun.i have been friends and riden with saun for the past ten years and still he is it.not many people have tryed it he still stands alone with a few shadows.bring back gravity bike i want to do every run.i dont like to sit around and talk the talk.im a rider and i ride.keep up the good work ASRA as if was not for you guys the sport was diying.

yeah man that massive weight attached to my leg hanging out the front really helped me take the speed lines down the hill in my 'gravity wheelchair'.

Sparks you certainly are a discipline machine along with Dave Kelly and Brad Sterritt.
I don't know whether you have to hang up the bike just yet. G-bike won't be at Newton's but there is nothing stopping it being run at any second tier events and we are happy to support this

i have nothing intelligent to add to this discussion, no long winded well composed whine based on the history of gravity sports and which discipline owes what to who etc etc.
I am however a skater and i think its RAD that gravity bikes are not included this year.
