my red cnc pads have been the best pads i have ever used, i started them off with a medium grind, after about 30mins riding they were working a treat. I have the same grind now but i've ridden it in the wet and the grind is pretty much non-existent but they still work amazing, did a demo yesterday and they didn't let me down once! -hugh

always a pleasure to watch, awesome vid dude!

nice one Rob, have a great year in 2008 , youve got a great bunch of guy's behind you there at tarty's. nice one

took me a day at the most to get used to the bb rise, really enjoying it and happy with the bike etc. Thanks for all the kind words guys

saw the film when it was on youtube but saw it in the cinema with the Mrs. Thought it was ace! Great acting throughout, other films have to use music to make the acting/atmosphere tense but there isn't any through out the whole film i don't think. A+++++++

hey guy's, can any of you recommend a 19" lcd, hd ready (HDMI) tv. I'm after something which is reliable, good picture and sound maybe a digital jobbie with built in freeview. My budget is around £200. The problem i've found is there are just so many. Alot of people have said stick with named brands like samsung and they do do a nice 19" but it seems to be more of a monitor and not so much of a tv. Any makes i should stear clear of? What are you guy's using? -Hugh

hey guy's, just thought i'd ask on here....i sent back my xbox 360 which i got for x-mas as after 2 days it had the 3 red rings of death and asked amazon for a refund, as far as i know they received the 360 back on wed's maybe thursday depending on dhl. As far as i know i should be entitled to a full refund as the item was defected. Has anyone else sent anything back to amazon.co.uk for a refund? If so how long did it take. I know they must be busy with that sort of thing around now but it surely wouldn't take too long to plug my 360 in and see is was dead. Their site states up to 3 weeks!! thanks-Hugh

there will be two versions released i believe, kenny beleay and a cesar canas model.

Awesome vid dude, very nice riding, keep it up.

yeah that is the problem at the min, alot of good games are not out on ps3. Luckily the games i had for the xbox are available for ps3.....COD4 and mx vs atv untamed I think we'll see alot more games for the ps3 this year and improvements in graphics etc.

send/take it back to the shop you got it from and get a refund. Mine went 2 days after x-mas!! I'll be getting a ps3, played a mates and seems far better.

nice pics dude, was a mint ride. see you soon x

Thanks mate, yeah think thats what i'm doing, a mate of mine did two within a year and they replaced them with brand new one's on the spot so looks like their the people to go to. cheers-Hugh

thanks guys, think i'll be getting a refund or exchange for a new one. It's only 3 days old...takes the piss a bit lol

Hey guy's, got an x-box 360 premium/pro for xmas. Used it for the last couple of days (admittedly quite a bit) but it's already done the 3 red light "ring of death" situation!! I've stored it properly so it didn't get hot etc. Has anyone else had this happen so soon??? My parents got it through Amazon online and were sending it back but i've read a lot of stories where people have sent their consoles back and been given other peoples refurbished consoles which do the same thing after a short period of time. I think i'll be asking for a refund and then go and buy it elsewhere such as "game" so i can walk it and sort it out face to face if it occurs again. I was playing cod4 on it quite a bit so i've ranked up a lot online and unlocked loads of things, will this be saved on my x-box live gamer tag or on my hard drive which is going back with the console??? cheers-hugh

Yeah and i ride with Dan n Rob etc alot, Trials is trials, i ride in the wet n the mud, just makes you better for it. Anyways as the lad says loads of street near by Have fun guys.

it's sound in the wet lads, Rob knows what he's on about too, sounds like u don't Dan Kearns

nice pics scott hehe, no probs dude, see you soon after Christmas probably dude. x x

yer, much lighter than the limey, and seems stronger too, other reviews also find that it's bombproof lol.

rides ace, it has quite a high bb (+40mm) and i've come off a bike with a +10mm but i felt comfy on it right away. It's really nice on the back wheel and i've found i've improved on my riding all round really. Quite light as well which helps hehe.

Hey guy's, I received the part i was waiting for from Meta so my bike is now complete. The bike is standard apart from a few preferences of mine which are wellgo magnesium pedals, hope front brake, heatsink cnc red pads, rohloff tensioner, minion front tyre, braided cross over and custom meta bash ring. Thought i'd share some pics with you: Thanks to: Meta bikes, check them out www.metabike.com Heatsink bikes, check them out www.heatsinkbikes.com Trials-uk, check them out www.trials-uk.co.uk Let me know what you think and take a look at my site www.hughbarker.co.uk -Hugh
