  1. theres no way i'm riding the normal boring places all day i.e: C & A, memorial, anglia square. gotta go to the outskirts

    Hehehe, the amount of times thats been said! I'll see if Dave Dennis want's to ride, he knows the area pretty well so theres a chance we might find something new to ride B)

    Where is everyone going to meet, station at 11?

  2. Yeah, I remember when they were a vital accessory on all trials bikes, mine actually showed some usefulness as my mech hanger was super bent and the DCD kept my chain at an angle where it didn't rub the tyre :)

    I've probably got one in the shed still, anyone remember the Union Jack version Ashton and a few others had, everyone wanted one!

  3. I thought you guys were meant to be able to spell. :D  (Y)

    Sorry, i'll follow your example of superb spelling in future:

    Thats because all Tiogas are disc rims, you have to grind em to make them work for rim breaks.

    :- :P

    Where's the Bee when you need him......

  4. I think Ad's topics are acctually rather more interesting, although you'd think he was trying to be an sm wouldn't you :P" 

    I think the whole SM idea is really good, BUT I also believe that the whole useful post idea is a bit hard to figure out. I mean at some point everyones going to put a post like "Mega vid mate :D keep em coming" or something, its a forum what else are people supposed to put? I wouldn't like an essay each reply... but then again if you look at most of the senior members posts they seem to be a lot more intellectual than most of ours, all though people like monkeyseemonkeydoo and Royaltrials posts tend to be extremely useful and interested. 

    Meh what ever I just like pink names!

    Its mainly to stop pages of total rubbish running along the lines of:

    "Check out my new vid"

    "Wicked"

    "Mega"

    "Cool"

    "(H)"

    "Rubbish"

    Shut up $%^"%£^

    "Nice vid !!!!:-!!!!"

    Which is just totally pointless and anoying to read. You don't have to write an essay, something like "Really liked that vid the editing was astonishing" is better feedback then"mega!"

  5. I once ate half of a chocolate orange put it in the fridge for later and when returning to eat it the chocolate had gone all white and blotchy. My mum sent it back with a letter (I was very young at the time) and we got a free chocolate orange (Y)

    This thread is making me hungry.

  6. Firstly, nice one for modding the poll results, a vastly more acurate representation of everyones feelings :angry:

    I take back what I said about the frog creator then, the people who decided to abuse his creation should deffinatly pay though, slowly chewed to death by insane toothless hamsters perhaps?

  7. Bars, Clubs, Shopping centres can do whatever they like in my opinion. Its not really fair that everyone in a hoody is automatically suspected of being shady but large groups of youngsters hanging round wearing their hoods up does look super dodgy. There is no reason to have your hood up if its not raining anyway :angry:

    As for a government ban on them (if it is actually being proposed by anyone?) it would just be a waste of time, its not takling any of the actual issues of why there is Anti-social Behaviour™ and it would be impossible to enforce anyway.

  8. This is a common Magura problem, you are either:

    Running your cross-over hose at a funny angle

    Running hose that is too short

    Hitting the hose with your ankle, slowly wearing it out until *kasloosh*

    Which is probably what everyone else just said (Y)

    Royal Blood and water arn't the same, for fairly obvious reasons. Even if it was a good idea for Magura to make brakes designed to run on water (which it isn't) they wouldn't do it, they could hardly ,make much money from selling 'Royal Water' could they.

    If you dont want your brake to unexpectedly implode then do the following:

    Get a monsterous booster

    Get steel braided hoses

    Get rid if the Magura

    Check it regularly for wear

  9. It was said on radio that its ment to be number 1 on sunday :D  (Y)  :D

    Well if Akon can do it....

    I hate it, a lot, its not just the fact the the song is intensely anoying, but its advertised on every TV station you can name, it'll be on the BBC soon. Every single time i'm watching something and the advert comes on up pops that anoying b*****d and I have to change the channel, then five seconds later its back!

    The person who created in should be forced to listen to it over and over for the rest of his life.

  10. Could be a number of things:

    The cable tension is too slack causing the big end bit of the cable to not sit in the holder

    The spring in the lever is loose/wobbly/come out of place

    The cable is frayed and the frayed bits are crunching in the cable end

    The bolt that holds the lever arm in is loose

    those are my best guesses anyway.

  11. Is the clicking from the lever or brake end? It might need a new cable, or the linkage might need a good clean. If the noodle is at a strange angle it can sometimes click when pulled so give that a look.

  12. I wonder how you spell ayyyyyy?

    I can't think of anyone unbelievable cool, but yet an alcoholic for you Jimbo, I was going with Johnny Vegas, but he's a bit large.

    Hmmm its a tough one, I went with eeeee, but I think your ayyyyy is more acurate, howabout eeaaayyyyyy.

    As for alcoholic cool people I struggle to think of any, which is a bit shite :) Would have said George Best except he was cool when he played footie, he is now a bit of a muppet, or Barnie from the Simpsons, but he's a fictional charecter unlike The Fonz™ :)

    What do senior members do anyway?

    We set an example to other members by posting intelligent, well spelt, relevant material, this thread is a prime example (Y)

  13. Wroooooooooong!!!

    Niiiiiice post, beginning to wish I hadn't posted in favour of you in that other thread :)

    I've got nothing against children being brought up by loving parents, however I don't think the girlies referred to in this thread are in the best situation for bringing up kids. The fact that children are being brough up without fathers is being linked to a lot of the anti-social behaviour thats going on, and more situations like this are only adding to the problem.

  14. 1. If you want to thank the Mods without looking like a brown-nose send a PM.

    2. Just because someone once posted a load of rubbish it dosn't mean they always will. Those lines that are quoted have had the dates removed so I can't see if they were made before or after validation, but just because someones once been a fool it dosn't mean they should be banned, people can change there ways and its better to give them that chance then to just ban them right out.

  15. u done more than i have done for my first year uni exams!

    it isn't how much u revise, its how much u know!

    smithy

    Bingo.

    I hardly did any for mine, because I was fairly confident I knew the stuff. You should have been doing mocks so you should have some idea how much revision you need to do. Best technique is to do the revision right before the exam, or the day before so the information is still fresh in your mind.
