  1. Errr... this topic is shit.

    Just because it's of no interest to you doesn't make it a "shit" topic, in fact it's quite informative and useful to some. Perhaps in future if somethings of no interest to you, you could do what everyone else does and not post at all :P

    like they say "if you dont have anything useful to say, dont say it at all" or something like that anyway!

  2. have you read danny wallaces book  'join me'  thats awesome too!!!    as good as the dave gormans books  (Y)  (Y)

    not read it but i have heard all about it and it does look v interesting! might have to invest in a new book soon :)

  3. Dave Gorman is brilliant. Read both his books, seen him live and watched all the series on tv (Y) not got the dvd yet though. I recommend everyone should read the book Amazon Link

    quick plug for him there. And no im not related to him in any way (Y)

  4. nice room looks similar to the ones at Brighton I'm in. That's unlucky that they dont provide safe storeage. Here at Brighton i have a secure room thats built onto the side of my house with a big arse door and lock, and then space to lock each bike up individually inside too. Seems to be luck of the draw (Y)

  5. I don't agree that we need more moderaters, not at the moment anyway. I'd put my money on that Tart and Mark do the majority of the moderating as they are online the most. Mods like me, Lewis, Joel etc do the odds and ends whenever we are on. I am actually on more than you might think since i have been at uni (mainly lurking :( ) and I barely find anything that needs doing. Unless the guys that do the bulk of the moderating are finding it too much i dont see the need. And none of them have mentioned it as far as i know.

    I think that most of the posts that get closed deserve it. Often threads that turn into slagging matches that get lots of hits will get closed before people have stopped the bitching- but they should be stopped as soon as possible. Its all down to discretion and in most cases I reckon we get it about right.

    Im certainly glad there is a moderation team on TF- remember how Trialskings, MBUK and many other forums turned out? utter drivel in nearly every post. A lot of topics might get repeated here but considering how large the forum is most posts are of a good standard. I don't know if TF can get much better whatever slight changes are made.

    thumbs up to TF in general :D

  6. I reckon its hard to say who actually started it. People were probably doing primitive form of Trials, trying to go over obstacles on bikes in various parts of the world at different times before anyone knew what it was. I think i read somewhere it originated in Germany but then the Spaniards stole the credit for it. Who really knows though?

  7. how exactly do you plan on getting a Crescent? do you know someone with one second hand because last time i heard they stopped making them a long time ago, under both the Crescent name and later Bianchi. Is it really a good idea buying a frame you have never ridden? maybe if you could ride a few different frames you could make your mind up a bit better?

  8. this is the type of music i most love (Y) although i listen to lots of other "genres" too

    The Killers

    Starsailor

    Kasabian as Tomm said (my fav at the moment)

    Hope this qualifies me as being cool

  9. You are right though with the car simile, women are like cars. You have fast, racy ones that are good for nothing apart from looking good with you, and solid and reliable workhorses who will always be there for you, but you are ashamed to bring them out in public.

    Joel

    oh my god you sound like Swiss Toni.

    Starting a car is very much like making love to a beautiful woman. haha u cheesy bastard Joel >_<

  10. give the guy a break. Im sure he's had all these opinions from people a thousand times before and if he knows he's ready then good luck to him (N) Joel is exactly right, most people wouldn't be ready to marry at 18 but then others will be. It all depends on the people. I certainly dont feel i have any experience to judge and neither does 99% people on here.

    oh and girls can be evil SOMETIMES but they are well worth it really :-

  11. yeah but NFL players still make stupid amounts of money don't they? they might have a wage cap but its still sky high (as far as i know). Without relegation football would be so boring (many people on here already think it is :() I dont want to see the same teams every year and theres no competition for lower teams who couldnt get promoted.

  12. football is a massive Business because of how popular it is. If the players dont get the money it just goes into the pockets of the fatcat chairman's and shareholders. But I do think football would be a lot better if it was less about Business and more about sport. A lot of Players dont have the same intense motivation to win, as long as they get paid so they can buy another sports car or whatever thats all that matters . But thats the way football has gone and nothing can change that.

  13. everything has to be convinient to fit their lives, everything must revolve around them, they cant handle any little change of plan, they over analyse everything and every little thing you do was done deliberately to annoy them (in their minds), they are over emotional, they give you the silent treatment, they need so much attention and time, and money.

    apart from that they're not evil at all :("

    and before one of the girls comes back with something, remember your out numbered so nah :-

  14. Think it's time we re opened this age old question of tart's.

    are girls evil ? I think they are, but wont add my reasons til I've grabbed some breakfast :(

    and i dont mean physically before davetrials says "they've got tits an ass"
