It's been about a year exactly since I started back after 20 years off.  I did ride "freestyle" a few years when I was a kid but it was extremely basic stuff even for back in the mid-eighties.   Thanks for watching  :beer:

Well, that's disgustingly awesome.

Thanks man I appreciate that, especially coming from a rider of your calibre.  I'm hoping to make big progress this next year.

At the rate you're going I hope you make big progress the next time you go out.

For real, everyone on here that feels they are lacking skills take a gander at the old guy (no offense) learning fast as hell. You make me want to go ride, but I gotta nurse some tendinitis first :(

I've been pumped on 5hane's progress since June 2010 when I started watching his vids on youtube. Until I saw his 40 day hitchhiker video I was under the impression that halfhikers and hitchhikers took atleast 6 months to a year to learn. I probably wouldnt have put all my effort into learning hikers last summer if I hadn't seen his vids. Seeing somebody learn it so fast made me really wanna get out there and go after it!

Been hibernating this winter...but when we had a 70 degree day, I had to try and get out for a while to knock some rust off. Shot this last week, but didnt have an editor to slap it together. Just used a trial version from avs4you.com(NEVER again! due to the watermark in the center screen)) to get the clutter off my computer.
Nothing crazy...just having some fun. :crash:

Winter takes a break...i play bikes. 2011

I'm a few months back into riding after a 10 year break (already farther along than I was back then...)

So this is my first mini installment of today's riding. Just showing the things I've been working on.

and thanks so much mannie, thats encouraging. I'm really loving my second wind of flatland...I'm still super inconsistent, but it feels good to start getting some things down.
