Working with the LA's is the best bet, and outdoor & unstaffed would be best as a start, if it succeeds then expend and improve with the indoor idea. Search your local authorities site for info on NEAP's LEAP's and LAP's (Neighourhood equipped areas of play, Local equipped areas of play and Local areas of play) design guides. Theres sometimes seperate info available on 'wheeled activities' ie skateparks/dirtjump areas. On one LA site i even saw something about a designated where, under council supervision, things can be constructed by kids themselves for wheeled activities (ie a designated dirt jump area).

I've recently got back into/listened to lots of: thursday against me! something corporate sylosis darkest hour brand new

Just phone a few garages, its the only way you'll find a true price.

Yeah, they dont need to be XC specific flatties, i just want some decent flatties to use for XC. Them atomlab ones are lush, i was going to get some but they're not in stock on CRC till February. I'll check out those Kona ones.

Ill still have the spd's and will more than likely use them at some point, but i prefer flatties in general, i tend to change my foot position a lot when i ride.

I've just ordered myself a Trek Fuel 80 off www.paulscycles.co.uk but it comes with spd's, so im in need of some flatties. Im tempted to cave in and get a pair of V8's, which ive got on all my bikes but i feel like being different for once. DX's look good but maybe a bit chunky, and a bit pricey considering the bikes uses. Wouldnt mind some black ones to go with the bike colour-scheme too. (black and red)

What it was a while ago, albeit briefly. What is usually looks like before the sides get too long and make it look like a wig. Apologies for the cheesy myspace-ness of the pictures:lol:

[geek]Correct, the normal kerb upstand on a section 38 road is between 115 and 125mm.[/geek]

Depending on location - Im near milton keynes and only 1.5-2hours away from berighton by train, so easily do-able. Would you use it? - Yes If you did use it, would you come more than once? - Yes, assuming all levels of rider ability is catered for Would you be happy with an entry fee of £5? Yes Would you attend competitons there? Possibly to spectate, but not to enter.

Theres an article in the current MCN (hurry up though, i think the new ones out on wednesday) about mototrials street, not so much like street mtb trials, more FMX/BMX inspired, but still pretty cool. Theres a site too but i cant remember it and im at work.

Try the 'How to fit/remove a headset' thread in the FAQ forum.

I'd hardly jump to the ES conclusion, you could name loads of 'dancey songs' with distinctive guitar parts. It could be apollo 440, daft punk... a million other things. If it's on the local radion station, just look at their site for tracklistings, or keep listening to that radio station till it's played again and they announce who it is.

Everyones bumming atreyu, they just started off as a Darkest Hour rip-off band, who incidentally are much better than atreyu, and didnt go wishy washy when make-up began being cool. - http://www.myspace.com/darkesthour Also, i'd like to shoot anyone who calls BFMV and Trivium 'emo'. http://www.myspace.com/profoundhatred http://www.myspace.com/fellsilent http://www.myspace.com/miserysignalsband

I'm more Fire hazard and Burning my house down conscious Cheers for the suggestions and link, i'll check them out when i get some time.

Im going to be moving into the spare room as it doesnt have a built in wardrobe thus giving me more options for layouts unlike my current room. My latest bright idea is having a wall mounted LCD TV at the end of the bed. Ive seen a few but they lack a few things i want, mainly a PC input option. I would like the followng: 26/27" PC input Integrated freeview Flatscreen Widescreen option Wall mountable Headphone socked would be nice but is not necessary. I found one with everything but the PC input (A samsung) but found a few things in reviews i dont like about it, main one being it doesnt have a power off button:S Im wanting to spend in the region of 5-600 notes. Cheers very much, Tom

I was walking through town with my wife when we suddenly saw a commotion. We wandered closer and saw 6 skinheads kicking the hell out of my mother in law. "arent you going to help?" said the wife, "No, i think 6 is enough, honey"

Very good vid, nice smooth and chilled but some good moves which people usually leave out of chilled videos. Liking the steps at 1:15, and Stans super smooth sesh on them rails/blocks! Beasty crash too Tart, i did a similar thing when i was starting trials but it was a sidehop drop and the front end didnt leave the bock dumping me on my head

I just say 'riding over obstacles, likes motorbikes trials but on a montainbike' - normally keeps people happy.

A heatgun, same as a hairdryer but hotter. Or really keep at it with the hairdryer and scrape off with a credit card (minding not to scratch it)

Same here, ankles and knees click like crazy all the time, especially so in the mornings. I think its to do with constantly locking out your joints when you hop.

You posted it thurs night, there probably wouldnt have been a collection till friday afternoon. He'd have got it on either monday or tuesday, on the assumption he paid it in immediately then the 5 working days still isnt up, thats before you account for the weekend and postage time.

And take cod liver oil tablets for the clicky joints.

Chain reaction or tartybikes. Ive ordered off wiggle before (got a kool chain) but by the time they'd added postage it was the same price as tartybikes anyway. Tarty is by far the best trials specific shop i've used, the only thing that lets CRC down is the lack of focus on more specific riding styles.

You've never left caps lock on by accident and done that?

Its just a unofficial 'im on trials forum and i own a mini' thing. Read in the mini thread.
