I agree with blaine. Its hard to get goin 60 mph on a bike (need a super steeeeep hill) 80 is gettin close to the world record )107mph is the record)

[Norman]

even 80 KM/H is kinda hard to believe. I've hit just over 60 km/h manual on a super steep hill and it was totally the most insane thing ever. and i don't know anyone over here that can manual as fast as i get going, although there are TONS of way better riders. manualing is the ONE thing i can do well. if roscofat can do it then props, but based on some of his other posts, i'd say the bullshit meter is pretty high. i know he's done diggers and thats sick. doing it no-footed? hmmmmm. :rolleyes:

[MiKeY]

hmmm lets' see my goals for the season, these will all be on my hardtail since i won't be able to afford a big bike.

Rose Hill roadgap

dude, 55mph is the max highway speed, that seems a little high. thats like 100 km/hr in our terms. if you can do that, well then props. :eek:

[sAFETY]

My goal is to become a rider that's worthy of his bike.

That will guarantee that I'm a better rider by the end of the season.

yea i realize that now. (see my other post) actually isn't 100km/hr more like 65mph? anyways, 55mph is fuckin fast on a rear wheel :eek:

[BC_Hucker]

my goals are to be able to.

Do Diggers Rock, Rose hill Road Gap, Table of Big Stump, Get far better at jumping. Be able to do 3 stars, no handers down A-line, And be able to do many other tricks. My main Goal has to be to get top 5 in the BC cup circut. sounds like a pretty big goal, but iam training for 2 hrs plus , 5 times a week, riding 3 days a week. and ill be at every single BC cup race, and a few Canada cup races. I also want to be able to do no footers of dragon schleyer drop. I think all of my goals are accomplishable, with enough dedication.

[Norman]

okay i just did the conversion and 55mph = 88.5141774 km/hr.

[How]

american loser!

Yes, unfortunatley due to my "americanism" i have no chance of being good, so in my quest to show up Canucks I will have to hobble them before competition begins.

Anyways, here's my goals:
Win Canada Cup DH in Fernie (yeah right)
Win local DH again
Win local Mtn X (grr... some kid had gone to Dorado or some city just to get trained to race and he owned all of us, what a pussy)
Mad Style on my signature step down, and How's Rock.
Put together a video so you can all laugh at How
Get good at taking pictures!
