Cheers mate! It was a brilliant weekend as usual. It takes a lot of work, but it's always worth it! Glad you all enjoyed it too! That stem should be in the post by the way - thanks again! (I sent it through our work's post, but we moved offices so it might have been delayed a bit, sorry if it has)

Another fantastic weekend at the Bill!

Doubt it, it's a Flash game and as yet, Flash isn't available for Apple products. It'd be a bit hard to get the controls to work on a touch screen as well...

British National Events For 2011
Ben Swales replied to BikeTrial Federation's topic in Clubs and Competitions

That was a pretty cool video - it's cool to see that such an iconic park has been saved from closure and that the BBC are getting on board as well. Nice work! However, given that it was commissioned by the BBC (presumably to be shown online/on telly), it might have been a good idea to proofread the titles - some grammar mistakes and rogue apostrophes in there!

And here it is: Clean: Section 01
