I just thought I would let people know I completed the game this evening WITH NO CHEATS! (N) That has to be the best game I have played for bloody ages! such good graphics and gaming detail. The last few levels were hard, almost lost my rag a few times lol.
-
yaaaay third! I am pretty suprised with that, I thought aust, phil williams and aran cook might have beaten me. Tims Pashley land rover is a beast at off roading, it got up some right steep stuff, was soooo fun!

I have no idea what place I came. I dropped 39 in elite which I am pretty unhappy with but I have a number of excuses :) lol 1) dislocated my thumb last week and I have very limited movement of it 2) a REALLY sore shoulder (from same crash that did my thumb) 3) riding a bike with crappy tyres and a narrow rear rim 4) not being as good as the other competiters I thought it was a fun trial, nice weather a bit muddy though, but thats expected at back cowm

cool, as long as they are big! :( :("

Name- Alastair Clarkson Town- Hebden Bridge How long riding trials- 6 years Would you be prepared to travel to the park- yes (when I get a car) email adress- dvclarkson@yahoo.co.uk i am signing this form on my be half to support the trials park in crook Alastair Clarkson I think you should ask for lots of rocks, they can provide hundreds of lines and no two rocks are ever the same (and they are hard to nick and cant be set on fire)

mmmm wild alpine strawberries, cant beat'em. but if we're being precise about whats fruit and whats not, I will say nice crunchy seedless grapes are my fave, they are just sooo addictive!

heh heh, when it comes to halloween all you need to do is get some fake blood and spread it around that torn tattoo, that would scare a few kids :ermm: I think my mum would never look at me again if I had things like that done :wub: not that I would want to any way :blink:

true The first one I made did burp air when it folded and when you rimmed it, but I made that with slime sealent and not latex. I did one recently with latex and its soooooo much better, it just doesnt burp at all and it seals punctures a lot better. I was just explaining to mark that I wouldnt need to send it to mike to do, thats all. :(
-
PAH! I was the one who explained it to mike, I know perfectly well how to do it :S . I told people how to do it nearly a year ago but no one too any notice. :(
-
ok, while your not riding fixing your puncture, I will be happlily hopping about gleefull in the thought that I wont have that hassle again :("
-
nope, it was for the ones in the pic, they have xtr cranks for xc now and saint for dh, the old xtrs are extremley good cranks.

I got 8 I got the baseball one wrong (I didnt have a clue) the pill one wrong I also got the moses one wrong (silly me) oh and the divide 30 one ( maths was never my strong point) I was chuffed I got the butcher one right and the birthday one

arrgh, I am never using keda tryes again, They slipped on me and nealy caused a broken thumb (2 hours in casualty to find out its just strained). My friends with koxx tryes was gripping like a leach. Its not fair, I wanted to be the first person to try this tubless on the forum :ermm: but things like wheels still need doing and tyres need getting....ohwell. I would either choose a maxxis single ply, or if you want a bigger tyre try the schwalbe big betty gooey gluey (un prooven grip though)
-
to get extra security of tyre fold, pour more latex on the bead of the tyre when its on the rim and inflated, that realy helps to create a strong flexible bond. I did it on a wheel of mine and inflated it to 10psi (after properly seating it) and no matter how hard I tryed, I couldnt get any air to escape when pushing the sidewall off the rim. I also wacked the wheel against a corner still at 10psi and it just wouldnt puncture! I put big dents in the wheel trying :blink: You can seal drilled rims (even drilled sidewalls). You just do as mike was saying about using the 12" tubes to seal 20" bikes, well you get a 20" tube, stretch it over your rim and slit it down the middle. Spread the tube over the sidewall of the rim and clean it. Then put your tyre on whith the tube still stretched over the rim and seal it with the latex. When its all sealed, cut off the remaining tube flush with the tyre. That seals everything from holes in the rim and I think creates extra ressistance to folding.

I think family guy is my fave, its just so random and funny. I agree with Raub about the simpsons, they seem like they are running out of ideas and just making up a "story" during a lunch break. I also really likes the Incredibles, I dont know what it was about it, but I loved it, that comes in 2nd for me. 3rd...........difficult........I think Ren & Stimpy do it for me, although sometimes the show is just plain creepy!
-
find a website with a mock test and use your cd lots, its piss when yo get to it.
-
go look onn the notubes web site and learn new wonderful things.
-
its possiblt to fit any size tyres if you know how. the latex seals by the air forcing it out, heating it which solidifies it.
-
any people to thank regarding this Mike? :)" (Y) I told people it works, no one believed me, well I have the last laugh now mmmmwwwahahahahaha
-
you learn somthing new every day (Y)

cheers guys, I have ordered some lovery music for my bro (and me (Y) ) to listen too.
-
I am after some indi (individual) music to get my brother for his birthday, He really likes bands like Snow Patrol and Belle & sebastian. Does anyone know of any lesser known bands that are like these? Also maybe a place to buy them too. Cheers Al

I am sure it rides nice, but I do think its an ugly bike, maybe its just the forks and stem though? Any reason for using a gripshift instead of a thumb or roady shifter? It would look neater and be lighter and more out of the way. I just think it looks kinda messy. I love the disk mount though, looks neat as hell. But I aint a fan of cable brakes for the rear.
