  2. I was thinking of running for a benevolent dictator party at this election. I need various posts filled anybody here up for joining me or recommending anybody.. Bike trials guru construction engineer to turn all enclosed stadiums in the land into free trials parks. personal physician keep me healthy from all the bad drugs personal security keep me safe from all the secret lunatic organisations out their to get me. personal court jester make me laugh personal chef so I dont get hungry, no GM food. personal masseuse no explanation required personal driver take me places but must not drive off the edge fake news starter to make me look how I want and keep the masses happy (benevolent bit of my dictatorship) Various other post will be filled when required, remember ever body else that I dont like, disagrees with me and everybody that does not contribute to society will be put up against the wall. Anybody vote for me.
  3. Big thanks to the Rolls family for all the hard work and being great hosts. What an event, everybody I spoke to really enjoyed it. Weather was great as well.
  4. sponsored by a cow, cool are you wearing the black and white team colours. Don't do all that social media pish. I can get in enough trouble on here haha.
  5. So come September and Brexit is closer, 3199 will be closer to the cost of a new van the way the pound is going? Still under £3k for now. He is saving already.
  6. Or is it? It will be good though is the word on the street. Please note that everything stated here is not word on the street and is not an opinion or true and is purely for fun purposes. There is no brand loyalty, but we do thank the good work that Tarty Bikes did in getting a bike up to us over a bank holiday weekend at short notice. Thanks where thanks is due.
  7. WHAT YOU TALKIN ABOUT WILLIS. no he he has no association with Clean and pays for his bikes like everybody else, I take it that is you hiding your face in shame? He better not snap this one all season or he will need to get another job. Carbon is the future like the new £10K intense downhill bike WTF. I got a brand new van for not much more than that!!!! To be said in the Billy Connolly accent.
  8. Its a British/Scottish so 10.00am for briefing. To much remote camper van time with your good lady!!!! Fort William was great event and thanks to all who turned up and especially all the new riders. Will be good to see you at some more, can not promise the good weather. British sections are similar to the level at Fort William for most of the lower classes, so don't be put off by it being a British round. Camping on site from Saturday (I will be there Friday) with Toilets and cafe open for food and CAKE. Entries will be on Entry Central shortly and need to be done there and before the event please or it cost you extra. Star of the event was Donnie riding his full suspension enduro bike in Intermediate class until he broke it!!
  9. Should of gone to the one behind with the soft yellow pad on it.
  10. Aaron just snapped/cracked a third frame within nearly a year? In my experience getting it welded causes heat around the new weld to weaken that area and it will not last. Even trying to put in a strengthening piece in will not work as the loads are just transferred to an area weakened by the welding. It can also twist the frame if not jigged when welding a major area. I am no welding expert but in the early years when we tried to get welding done it never worked. Big thanks to Tarty for sorting us out a new frame so quickly.
  11. Thanks Ross. Weather still looking good. BBQ and drinks on Saturday night?
  12. loads of baby Carthys running around.
  13. Weather is looking fine for the weekend. Bonus
  14. Only if he looses it.
  15. Maybe get his trainer to work on his hole technique. That should be interesting new video.
  16. Hi All. Fort William entry. Camping Saturday. Downhill opening weekend festival, Saturday is the last day of SSDT so get up early on Saturday and watch the action then come along for BBQ and beers at the Nevis range. 2017 Fort William entry.docx
  17. Not enough people do what you are doing and are just driven into uni/job/mortgage/kids/die. Hats of to you Mark, I have a few mates that have done what you are doing, and love life. Trying to convince my two that its an option, but it is their choice in the end but are listening I think. I kinda did what you are doing, just worked where I wanted, but bought a house and just struggled with it for years but stilled played hard. All done and dusted now through lots of hard work, but now starting to cut down on work and up play time. Each to their own but never be told your life plan by expectation of others. I still don't have one just take each day as it comes.
  18. just home. well it was a great day, weather gods were happy, section setters did a great job, much more professional and better looking. easy to enter with new system. Great venue, Happy dayz, see you all at the next one in May.
  19. Entry form for first round. 2017Rnd1 Cockenzie entry.docx SCOTTISH BIKE TRIAL CLUB MEMBERSHIP APPLICATION FORM 2016.docx
  20. More important events to win and no competition here?
  21. Again not to qualified on this. when the riders are younger longer cranks mean easier leverage? and a by product that its easier to get the pedal down to rest? Older riders can gain more strength and therefore can lever a smaller crank over a shorter distance to get more power/lift.? by product that it is less easier to get a pedal down?
  22. He isn't riding the British Championship this year.
