    Hey Stephen
    Won't be doing the DB this time but you know there's a bed here on the way down or back up. The girls'll make sure there'll be plenty of ponies & soft toys to keep you company. Did you want the fairy princess canopy on the bed again?

    That Steve McQueen scrambler thing must be magic or somebody got photoshop out. Its standing up by itself.

    There is a cool video of a guy using one to try and recerate the Great Escape jump on youtube I think. He reckoned it was a bit of a hard landing.

    Cheers R

    What ya do is you get someone to hold the bike at its balance point while you get ready with the camera. When you say go the guy holding the bike runs out of shot and you take the picture before the bike falls over. if you do it well the holding guy can get back and catch it before it falls. its a great way to damage your bike without actually riding it.

    Maybe we should have a best "standing up by itself" photo contest.
    I mentioned vegetables once, but I think I got away with it...........
