Gavyn.

do you know who the owner of that car is? did you catch his name? someone up here has built one out of an old quattro shell ( paid 8k for it and it was ruined) it's now well mint and i'm pretty sure thats exactly it.

expect to add on around about 60% capacity if it's got a turbo, except for the rx's which you probs wouldn't get insured on. so if it's a 1.3 turbo insurance will cost around the same as a 2.0 n/a mondeo or some family car My quote on a starlet is 4k which I refuse to pay for something I may not even need. you can have fun in a car with a smaller engine but It's got to be the right car with a bit of work a 1275 mini would easily be as fast if not faster( unless your going over 100mph) than a saxo vtr and it'd be a hell of a lot more fun. The only problem with that is a mini isn't very practical for putting a downhill bike in the back.

What about a powerball for your forearms seems to have helped mine also rowing was good on my forearms too.

I was being a retard, in 2007 they only made one model of epicons in 08 they've made 6 my bikes the 07 so it'll have the old forks nothing really wrong with them, I'm going to buy a shock pump as they are a bit soft I've been hucking it off some good 10-15ft drops and going up and down stairs quite alot too so it's no wonder really. front wheel bearings are f**ked though so I might take it in and tell the guy that see if he'll sort me out with a new front wheel banshees are ace though rides just aswell as my mates kona coiler but I can put my seat down further for about an inch extra clearance for downhill. I'll make some kind or freeride akkers style video soon

provisional insurance is usually cheaper for young males because they've got someone there supervising them and as soon as they don't they tend to go too fast and crash into trees

Thats better than the official one. haha

I've got mine good luck getting them though it's just taken 30 mins of queing on ticketmaster

haha you had a group wank over a cover teacher and got caught. couple of folk got done for wanking in our class. one lad had a male physics teacher who really liked him and always spoke to him, he hated it so he walked in to the lesson with his balls out of his zip and left them out for the whole lesson the teacher never said anything but never spoke t himagain because he found it to strange.

insurance companies are wanting about £1500 for my mini with mods declared so might have to miss some of them out, which is a bitch cause I wanted to be totally legal and because for my mum and I as a named driver they only want £300-£400 bastards also they won't insure me if I add webbers to my car

run a bolt from the bottom up and secure the nut at the top. it'll be easier to get it set up that way.

There are a few motorbike trials guys on here, but I think you'd get a quicker/better response on the motorbike forum. I think it's called trials central so try searching that. all I can say is good luck. Gav

foobar 2000 is 10x better than winamp you need to update to service pack two and just stick to itunes because you have an ipod

have a look through the earlier pages of the car thread. anyway i've bought a 79 mini special, really as a bridge car, project, money making sort of thing before I get a mk1 escort mexico, (already sourced it and agreed that at the end of the year when the owner knocks the garage down I will come and collect it ) really can't wait until then but i'm going to have some fun in the mini before winter then have some broadside action though winter in the mk1 then restore it over spring time in time for summer

I've got a f**king cockerpoo it's a boy and my mum called it cally (girls name?) it pisses me off big time. but it is a mini version of top gear dog so I have to let it off. as soon as I have a steady job and a flat or house I'm going to get something really big like a great dane or german shepard, or i'll get a springer spaniel and train it as a gun dog. I had a leopard gecko which was ace but had to give it away after 10 years of meticulusly caring for it because my sister pretended to be scared of it. Crying everytime she came near my room and stuff. She hates snakes though and I've always wanted one so might bring home a corn one day for good or even just a grass snake/adder from the local woods sometime for a couple of days when it's warm.

The problem is people who run the oil are going to get greedy, as soon as they find new ways of drilling they'll take up alot more oil than need be. Who's going to regulate it aswell because thats the kind of shit that starts wars.

have you tried tightening the little 1.5mm-2mm allenkey thing attached to the brass barrel give it a couple of turns should sort it out

Good luck to ben and rowan, but also I've got to wish ashton luck because even though sometimes I disagree with his opinion in mbuk and what not. He got me into trials and I have no idea how the last 6 years of my life would have turned out if that hadn't happened. I was pretty concerned when I heard the orange thing wasn't going to happen. but please for the love of god don't write 'ashton diamondback' on the frame because it's too long, and will look silly. and make a decent mod which rides similar to an 05/06 xtp with out the snaphappyness.

need some help from someone who's built/knows abit about the carrera banshee. I need to know which exact model of forks they come with, they are sr suntour epicons I know that but I'm not sure which epicons and also I need to know how to reduce the sag in the forks atm the moment it's about 30-40 mm and it sould be about 20 or so i'm guessing i need to pump them up abit but how do I do it? cheers gav

yeah, it happens to everyone who rides a shorter bike, you'll either get used to it or you'll change almost automatically. best thing you can do is cut down on sidehops then you'll improve in other areas of your riding and you'll stop hitting your legs so much

The best way to draw on you wall is to use an overhead projector, draw the pic you want on the wall on to the projector and then copy it in large to your wall

While your at school, everyone is telling you how shit work is and how much they miss school, but you know that one day you will have to leave the school and get a job. So is it not worth having as much fun as possible while your there. i'm not suggesting anyone who is at school should sacrafice getting grades in favour of having a laugh but school takes up 10-15 years of your life so why not make the most of them.

I hate riding kerbs and things like that as it's kind of boring but walls just below handlebar height are great fun you can just open up your trick bag if you like and start being creative. nothing wrong with going big but creative though so once you've devolped something on a kerb you can start inch pinching it

well you'd think that but when he was about to begin the final section at fort bill last year I was standing right next to him, and his bike (which was slightly less drilled at that time) and it clearly looked like it had been well used and I don't mean in the competition he'd obviously been using it on street because the chainstay was a wreck and there were several dents in the downtube. and you don't do all of that and still win a uci competiton. he did have a spare right beside him but I presume that was more so if he broke a part he could just swap bikes.

out with the old and in with the new. it's a slippery slope next shell be wanting only white cats with red eyes or something

it's basically impossible to police because how do you know who is on the computer at that time, if they are over a certain age then they'll be responsible for there own content surely so how can you ban the person whos name the isp has. it's like sending 2 identical twins to jail because neither will own up to commiting a crime which one of them did.
