Howard Cooke WTF



After a few weeks I eventually cleaned and fixed up Howard's bike. It rides really smooth and it fits him pretty good. H doesn't rides bikes very often and it showed straight away, to say he looked wobbly is a bit of an understatement. It literally only took 2 minutes before he went completely over the bars and was lying facedown on the floor laughing. Amazing. H skates with his unique, 'out of control, control' style but he rides a bike just straight up, out of control.

Bike Maintainence Destruction



I had a call off my 14 year old nephew asking me how to get the three piece cranks off his BMX. He said they were stuck on but wasn't sure why. I explained about taking the axle bolt off, knocking the crank arms off, pushing the axle through the bottom bracket shell etc, etc. He said he'd done that but they weren't budging so I told him to wait a day or so and I'd do it for him.
When I turned up at his house he told me he'd got the cranks off his bike. As you can tell by the photos, he really had.
So a Fit Trail Flow frame was destroyed and even crazier, the wood saw he partly used was also destroyed.
