  1. No worries, i want to try and stay as impartial as i can when it comes to shops in the trials community in case someone takes it the wrong way or as the "official voice of the forum" or some rubbish like that.
  2. I know they shouldn't. I'm just trying to make sure people don't get into bad habits of believing everything they read without thinking about all the angles then coming out with brash statements. Such things are called libel
  3. No, but all the people saying "he never gets orders right, don't trust him" they're basing that on what they've read on here and from their own limited experience with dan. I'm just pointing out that threads about a company will never be good. I mean take tartybikes for example. They do a great job and loads of people love spending their money there and do so with great trust, yet despite how many people love them even they don't have many/any topics about how amazing they are. Sure there's the odd post here and there, but just searching for a shop name like someone suggested isn't an entirely accurate judge of character.
  4. I think you have to remember that people don't get emotionally fired up enough to write about it when a good order is received so you only hear about bad ones. If an order goes though as planned its good but you don't go round making topics about the shop being competent now do you. Dan has had a fair few cases of bad service against him, but how many orders are carried out fine?
  5. If people use this thread before 2am* tomorrow night there'll be consequences *ie any times between dawn this morning and 2am tomorrow.
  6. I can do this rubbish, not been to leicester for ages. Well, not been on the bike for ages! Ha ha Count me in bitches.
  7. £30! I got 13 months for £22 last year
  8. Get some wet and dry on your processor and you'll lose even more its the load temps that count anyway... idle's rubbish
  9. I do hope that's a joke. We could use more members like you Either way, your validated so if you want to stick around your more than welcome.
  10. I'm a massive geek, I won't deny that. But if I'm spending all this time building it and getting it working I want to be able to see it! Only 1 dvd drive? Surely that makes copying discs a bit long winded?
  11. http://www.trials-forum.co.uk/wiki/Locations And working in full glory it can be used for descriptions and images of the locations. Like so... http://www.trials-forum.co.uk/wiki/Leicester
  12. I hope not because I am going to be attempting the left hand side mounting, I'll see how it goes. I'm sure I can make it all fit, will probably have to shorten certain lengths of pipework and use longer fuel lines. Failing that, it'll get stuck on carburettors.
  13. Compression on all cylinders was fine, all where slightly above what I was expecting. No matter, that engine is out now anyway and spread all across the drive and garage floor. The new build will be based on the KR block, though should I get the right amount of time spent on it, it should be around 2.2l, though we'll see how things go. I have a few different blocks and heads to play with, and should be getting my hands on an Audi 5cyl engine at the end of the month, we'll have a play and see what I like. Only trouble with doing a straight KR swap is then air box/fuel/engine management unit will be on the wrong side, being on the right in a 16v Scirocco and on the left in a 16V golf..At least that's what I've been told. Doesn't make sense, I've got a few cars to go and look at over the next few weeks anyway. Got some photos to stick in here when I get home as well, just to show some updates 'n stuff.
  14. Its not dead, just lacking in a contributive exchange of thinkings.
  15. Its not their fault. That was the nature of their generation I know it'd be rank down there at first... but just imagine how sweet it'd be after a few hundred thousand is spent cleaning it up and water sealing all the corridors.. Can't believe the electricity is still supposed to work.
  16. I know there's two smaller bunkers in a nearby village to here. Apparently they weren't quite so secret, and they built a housing estate round it. When it came to taking them down at the end of the war they worked out the amount of dynamite needed to flatten them would level the houses too so they just stuck a load of mud on top and made them into hills. As a child i always wanted to dig down and investigate them... in fact, i still do. Only the entrances are "concealed". Would make an awesome cinema/night club. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/East_Goscote
  17. That would have been a good example, yes. Unless the tap is pouring orange juice, then it would be bad.
  18. Having a Y splitter from a single video output won't enable for each screen to display a separate image. If you think about it, your card is outputting one thing, adding a cable with two ends won't give you two different images. You need a graphics card with two video outputs as dan said. if its not for gaming you can pick a relatively decent one up for around £25 that'll cope with dual screens and HD media and things like that no problem. Most modern ones come with two outputs as standard as well. EDIT: Damn your replying as I type!
  19. Being bi-sexual is swinging both ways yes? If they weren't thinking of being with another bloke then they're plain old straight surely? I answered gay. I'm in love with JonnyMC and i miss his raging torso now he's in Liverpool :$
  20. If he pays via bank transfer and your both with the same bank its usually pretty quick. If its from say barclays to natwest its usually a couple of days. If it were me I'd send it in a tank full of ninja dwarves just to be on the safe side
  21. Ah that could be it. I knew it was Leechy boy, but forgot that it might have been from that as well. Its sitting on my desk at this very minute... don't know how i forgot
  22. I actually really enjoyed that. Always liked the song since i first watched ryan leech in manifesto. The track just seems to blend effortlessly with trials riding. As for the riding itself, well, i don't think i need to say much to be honest. Silly big just doesn't quite cut it
  23. Indeedy, i'm gonna sign the 360 in now and will leave it on all night. Add me to a game or something whenever your ready!
