Really like the design Mark! Just don't get too emo-ey with it all and start posting dripping knives or similar.... Only question I ask is have you considered date segregation? I know the idea of a blog is to follow it frequently, but I saw earlier in this thread you posted the scotland video, and I couldnt jump straight to that video (although reading that back in my head makes me look like such a lazy b*****d....im not honestly) Its just a thought from the devils advocate. Feel free to dismiss it But yeah is a great design and artwork

The answer is there are servers around which people (on here) host time to time, but are invite only.... Or ask nicely

Because you're old You going to tarty days matey? Be rate good to re-unite the North wales choir eh...

"Partz posted this, 7:50 pm" Have I not updated it or something or is this a mini error?

Stan isnt a rider. Hes too chunky!!!

Ahh ok, but im not saying that at all. I havent mentioned the word comp either... Its a common misunderstanding though that you can only ride at comps if you're good at trials and you ride natural. Its not true at all. I recall in 2008 where I won expert that most of the trials were just about joking around and having fun. I'll never forget that blackpool comp actually where Chris Jones was too hungover and 5'ed a section to go throw up... I havent read the thread because meh its too long. theres my thoughts anyway, I fully expect them to be ignored

very nice to watch ben. Very smooth all round

holy hell Dave what have you done here?? I know exactly what you're saying, mostly because I knew you were this kind of person before you asked the question and I understand your gripe too. I think the fact is you (and me too) are dinosaurs in the modern day trials world. When we started it WAS about getting on your bike, riding to the spot, through forests, up muddy banks and doing sick natural riding in great locations. Street was still big too, but it was mixed with a 'balanced diet' of the two. As times have changed, people have become less and less interested in learning about balancing on dodgy slants, or holding a bike in a wedge/wodge (no thats not a typo) and they wanted to just to see the results quicker (because lets face it, natural is alot harder, to do and make it look good). So with that in mind, why use rocks at all? You may as well do this on your doorstep.... Nick's put it nicely above about the riding being going out for a day with your mates etc. Also sums it up nicely. But just look at the numbers of the types of riders by your own definition: id say the number of people doing just street is about 90% and the pure trials riders about 10%... Thats my view anyway. And theres nothing you can do about it really. You cant explain that feeling of fighting tyre fold on ridiculous slants and boshing out a huge gap to some scary rocks! But how many people can explain that feeling of nailing that huge sidehop you've always wanted? Or busting a massive G-turn?

wherebouts you staying? Would love to join but Im broken sorry (love this excuse now..)

I ran a bb7 on the rear of my hydroxx. Set it up pretty bad but it still worked ok! I had a 185mm size, I felt 165 was just a bit toooo small....

Im pretty sure Matt is considering this from a moral point of view rather than a financial one. Yes he could sue for (incompetency?) and get a bit of cash, but be devils advocate and look at the other side: The dentist gets a 'strike' against his career for life and presumably an increase in his insurance premium. He could struggle to get a private job and be forced to NHS (if not there already). If I were a dentist and I could choose to do this, then I know Id tell the patient to piss off incase something happened and they sued me. The real question is Matt, does he deserve it? Was he chatting away to the receptionist when it happened or watching TV etc? If he was then definitly sue. If he was just trying to help Id demand a removal free of charge (again if private) and a quick appointment. Can it even be removed?

Im broken, and in England. Sorry guys

Hahaha no no. I have 3 MORE weeks I got to A & E (via helicopter for some reason) where they gave me a plaster o' paris cast temporarily and then went to the fracture clinic to get a fibre glass cast, halfway up my bicep to my wrist. My elbow's obviously at 90degrees and I've been like that since 20th March: Number 20 For those interested in how it happened: Climbers reading: UKC Link

Alot of you may be aware that I managed to do this a few weeks ago IE im out of action. I get an X-ray in 3 weeks time where by then it should be healed. Does anyone who has suffered similar have any advice on how to regain strength in the arm? At the moment my tendons are killing me whenever I grab tight on something and obviously Im looking at getting back into riding and climbing as soon as possible. Any cheap physio exercisses I can do are welcomed too! Thanks

nice work ozzy! Youve improved lots

The cat strikes again Id love to own a megamo, just keep it in the garage like...

partz
