Edited Date/Time:
I had no idea i was up haha! Quality guys i am literally honored!
Element4all - Life across the pond is pretty swell right now! The weather is surprisingly sunny right now!
SickDude - Freecoasters are RAD! Honestly right now i think the Federal V3 is the best. However there are some sweet coasters coming soon. Eclat & Profile are the ones to keep an eye out for!
AndyFerly - Cannot say i have lol
TomDon - Street/Land is doing well, I have actually hung up the Benny & built up my T-1 SFA. I am currently in the process of building up a bike for exclusively Flatland as my shoulder is getting worse, i really need to take it easy & Flat is the way to go!
Blaaaaaaaaa - I am Topsey because my Last name is Turvey, Get it? Topsey Turvey!
Adam - One day Brotha' One Day! I will get out to you or you are more than welcome to come spend a week or two in the UK!
Eskimojay - I haven't run a front brake in a few years. I do love brakes but i prefer the feel of a brakeless bike. My new Flatland Rig will have removable mounts front & back so i wont rule out running them in the future! As for Forks with mounts, There are a few i would recommend. Odyssey F25, Deco FU, Primo Strand, S&M Fast Pitchfork & Wethepeople Helium Forks are some of the best!
Brianoob - I am not riding a lot right now because of my wrecked shoulder, but my GF has just got a Macbook with the fancy editing software & me & my buddies are all putting in for a camera. There should be a Flatrail/Flatland Edit coming out early next year when i am fixed! Promise
Zenith111 - This NEEDs to be done! Has anyone else heard of the King of Southsea competition? Effraim Catlow is holding a competition over the 3 day bank holiday weekend in August! Park, Flatland & I'm pretty sure there is gunna be a little Street Sesh going down too! Unfortunately i don't have a ride able bike right now but the UK Vital Crew WILL be riding somewhere at sometime! With the weather as crazy as it is right now, i think when the snow clears next year we'll have to wrap up warm & meet up somewhere!
tell us alittle about yourself topsey?

I'm on the vital legit list!
Edited Date/Time:
My name is Jon, I live in a little village called Launton in a small town called Bicester in England. I am 25 I have had a pretty shitty time with health over the past 10 years. I had my shoulder reconstructed when i was 18 after a pretty heavy crash on my Bike. I got Epilepsy from the head injury too. At one point i was having 5 or 6 seizures a day. It got me pretty down so i was diagnosed with Depression. The Epilepsy is all under control now so i decided i would go back to work. I have worked in 4 or 5 bike shops over the years. I noticed i was in a great deal of pain moving the bikes around & i started having muscle spasms & my hand would twitch a lot. Over the last 5 years it got worse & worse until this year i was diagnosed with Complex Regional Pain Syndrome. The Nerves in the right hand side of my upper body are wrecked. My doctor thinks that when i had my shoulder reconstructed because there were bone fragments in the joint its damaged nerves. I am taking some serious meds for it all including Morphine. ATM my Doctor is adjusting the dose i am on which sucks because right now i am in a LOT of pain. But i am hoping the pain will be kept under control with meds soon & then when i visit the Hospital they will be able to give me a more long term solution. Maybe Surgery? I don't really know. BMX is my passion, Cycling in general has always been part of my life! My cousin used to race MTBs semi professionally, he got me into riding. I got bored of MTB, messed around with Trials for a little while but it was just too expensive, my parents supported me but buying a motor home & travelling around the UK wasn't really on the cards haha. So i got myself a BMX & over the past 13 years i have just become addicted haha. Because i haven't been able to work i just studied BMX. I wanted to know more & more. I needed to know how parts were made, all the specifications everything. So that's how i am so knowledgeable when it comes to BMX. I cant really think of anything else that needs addressing haha. If there's anything in particular you want to know Ask away!
Edit: Totally Forgot, i am also diabetic haha. For about 3 months now! Have to inject insulin twice a day.
Tomdon! That would be fucking EPIC! Really looking forward to seeing this! Any hints about the parts?

not really any hints. i'm still debating on a few of the parts since i have so many. some are older and some are newer. it's gonna be a beast though
I'm on the vital legit list!
Ass for sure!
I actually prefer it cold! Can wrap up all nice & warm. Oh & it's pretty much always cold in the UK haha.
South Park is pretty much the best thing on TV infact quite possibly ever created! Family Guy is still dope though!
Anything but bloody Nickelback lol
BMX or Sex? Damn dude! Sex with BMX coming a super close second haha.
FBM, those guys kick complete ass!
I'm not sure who i am going to pick! Over the next 10 days i will keep an eye on everyone on the Forum & pick someone i think really deserves this!
