I tend to eat when I am hungry/bored. I used to really pig out on nasty stuff like crisps. But now I eat healthy stuff and feel better than ever! I always start the day with a bowl of porridge, then maybe a tuna+sweetcorn bap for lunch and then I'll cook something for tea (usually meat or pasta). If I am busy I'll not eat, but I'll catch up later. I can't understand why people don't eat or throwup. are they scared of being fat?

that was amazing! I couldn't believe that up to front Gilles did in the warm up!!

Lee Mill Quarry in Bacup Lancashire, Uk's biggest trials park

Neil's was an actual fracture rather than just a torn ligament. His was a bit more serious.

Torn ligament after folding the ankle over, still in cast now

I agree with that!

haha, I like it!

what tire is it? does it have thin or thick sidewalls?

lol, you never saw the testing the prototypes went through! Plus they were lighter than the current ones.....not one set snapped or returned yet! Can't be bad! If you hadn't guessed, I recommend Trialtechs!

lol, opening up a whole new can. I don't mind the act of TGS, but its more the whole image of tight jeaned, straight haired, sometimes abusive riders and so on. PLEASE don't jump down my throat, I realize that most TGS riders are nice mild mannored people. It maybe unfortunate that from the videos I have seen and the rides I have been on with a few people (not naming anyone) that the TGS image comes across like that to some. I also realize that you get abusive people at comps, but they are caught up in the competition, not telling old people to "f**k off" because they were asked nicely to not ride on a wall next to the old persons car.

fair enough then! Its good to have you back anyway. I wouldn't mind getting to a falcon trial at some point, been years since I have entered one!

I don't think TGS is shit (I do it often) but its just strange in my head that you would only want to ride TGS and not the rest of trials.

I have really bad ones. They used to hurt a lot, especially riding and driving, but they are not so bad now. I saw a doctor about them and he advised surgury at some point, he said it would be around 6 weeks recovery time with each foot.

I normally pop a couple of drops in, whack it in a vice for 2 mins and jobs a good'un. having a bead blasted finish REALLY helps though.

I think natural can be shit if you have shit natural, but if you can ride beast natural then is uuuuber fun! Kinda the same with street, but I still don't get the appeal of sidehopping the same wall over and over and over and ov...... My last local street ride was with Matt Smith and Little Sam. we rode for a couple of hours yet all I saw them do was just sidehops, just seems a bit weird they choose to do only 1% of what trials is.

thats just nuts, how did he get so far ahead? I also bet tat this stuff is MUCH bigger than it looks in the vid!

thanks for the offer guys, but there are no rocks near number 11, so I can't possibly take the job!

I just thought he might want the bike to ride nice, that's all

its either a 205-2006 frame, Iolo rode one when he was 2006 British champ, I am pretty sure they were new when he rode it. The Forks DEFFO look like urbans to me, They are not any type of koxx forks

oh my god, that sounds amazing! I'll bring my fullface helmet then

not tried ANY pads as good as the pads I am using now! trying my own rubber in TNN backings. The 2nd best pads I have used is Plaz CRM in TNN backings

I would say what I feel about TGS, but I had better not

if you are struggling with the bb5 then there is something wrong with it, I consider them to be more powerful than a Hope, but with more maintenance and heavier.

LOWER bar height?? I think you can get pogo sticks from Argos pretty cheap you know?

looks like you need to sort your back brake out and keep your weight forwards, but otherwise good stuff mate! Keep it up.
