Where do you plan on going. Cost of living varies from place to place.

Sydney for example is probably the most expensive place to live in Australia, while where I live is one of the most affordable places in the country.

Word from Simon posted on 2006-07-31 19:17:50

Simon asked me to pass this message on,

[quote]I dont get on the websites much but friends told me about the feedback im getting for my dvd. I just wanted to get on here and clear up a few things. I really appreciate that so many of you have said kind things about my dvd, I really am stoked. I've really tried hard with this project and I'm stoked how it turned out. I did not have a budget, I work a job as well as ride.
So doing this dvd I wanted to show friends and people exactly what I can do on a bike, as at contests its really hard to show your best stuff I feel. As i live in Australia I am extremely stoked on where I live so therefore wanted to show people how awesome the country actually is from my perspective.
As for the note at the start of the dvd, I wasnt going to put anything like that there but my friend who helped me said it might be cool as if a huge company wanted to take advantage of it, I have that to back me up. I'm a rider also and dont have alot of money so I understand if people were to burn it or whatever, but to be honest that wouldnt help me at all because i have spent alot of time and money to share with people what i feel about riding.

Either way if you read this i hope you enjoy the dvd and can get something from it. Motivation, wanna travel oz or whatever, cause the way i see it, when I was growing up, I got stuff like motivation and so on from videos and if i can get people stoked, then im stoked.

wow, you got that in one day? That is VERY fast. I cant take all the credit though. At flatlandfuel we ship everything as fast as possible. But once its out the door we are at the mercy of the postal service in the US and in the destination country and the customs service in the destination country. That is the unpredictable part. Sometimes its very fast and sometimes things can get hung up in customs. But that is out of our control so dont hate on us too much if that happens :)

Ya gotta be doing something right though Pat. I dont think Ive ever heard or read a bad thing about the service.
The hand written thanks is always a nice touch too

I'm in this DVD. 1 second in frame, but not facing the cam.

And Simon did indeed make this himself. Had some help from 2020bmxmag editor (Who is also working on the Mike S DVD)
Weird to think he was worried about people not liking it. I got it a little early from the Oz distributor while a dirt comp was on here. Next day of the comp, I coudnt help but express how good it was. Great all round.

I dont know what you're hearing, but the song Rebel Meets Rebel is a duet wit Dimebag and David Allen Coe. Check your CD booklet again (that's if you have a copy and not just downloaded) and look at the credits. Phil is not listed anywhere in the booklet. He has a very distinct voice and I just aint hearing it anywhere.

And Dimebag got the choice of a BMX or guitar for his 11th birthday. He took the BMX.

Although on his 12th birthday he took the guitar.

cool. sorry to be harassing everyone with so many questions, im just a bit iffy with online orders. thanks for the help!
[/quote]You wont be with flatlandfuel. Ive heard nothing but good things. You'll probably even get a hand written thankyou from Pat with your order. It's a nice touch I though.

pantera/dimebag is awesome but its not pantera without phil anselmo
[/quote]
Which is exactly why it's called Rebel Meets Rebel and NOT Pantera.

But on topic, I have both Dimevision and RMR. I'd be lost without them both. Cant wait for Dimevision Pt2

[quote="sergi8"][quote="FlatAus"]The vids are hotlink protected stu ya wanker.[/quote]

what is your intention when u make a video? I mean a free one, What is the problem if everybody download it? I ask u that becouse u are very stupid with that hotlink shit....
If u make something to share, just share it! and please don´t be so selfish...[/quote]
How hard is it to understand? When I make a video, I make it for [b]MY SITE[/b], not for other peoples sites.
What happens is, someone else has a site and links to the video directly from my server and uses up [b]MY BANDWIDTH[/b] that [b]I PAID FOR[/b]. Eventually with this happening on more than a couple other sites, my site goes offline from exceeded bandwidth.

So is it still stupid when you consider it remains online and still available for people to watch? I hardly think that is selfish.

So if you dont like the hotlink protection thing I have on my sites, dont accuse me of being selfish, blame the so called webmasters of these sites that hotlink other peoples content. They are the selfish ones.

The song is "recapturing the vibe" by Hilltop Hoods. It's from their new CD.

And the only parts of Simon are on his bike. All the other parts are his friends (Except the dolphins. One of those is Simon in a dolphin suit he rented from the local costume place :lol: )
