  2. On the day, be competant and open minded but dont be over confident, just chillax. When your driving, make sure that your not thinking about others things and just focus on the road ahead. Check your mirrors every time you change speed or direction. Another little tip, pretend you have a class of acid on the dash board, if you don't drive smoothly then the acid will tip over and burn you...lol. Keep an sharp eye out for road signs!!! Also your body language can have an impact on your driving...

    so major advise is, Relax. You'll drive much better.

    Good luck.

  3. Ive heard of head gaskit cleaner does the job. Cannot remember the name of the exact product but have a search, im sure your find it. If that fails, get it shot/sand blasted at an engineers or a powder coating company. Your local technology school might have a sand blaster, all they can say is no.

  4. Rossy that was sick! First line was ace! and the Pompey tap was banging lol. I had to laugh at the sidehop at the end, that must have hurt a tad. Cant wait for some sunny weather, get a ride going.

    Dave, Matt Hardy lives in New Milton, you might know him as 'Hardon'. Hes a laugh matthew-hardy@hotmail.co.uk im sure you've ridden with him. I arrange to come out to Barton in March.

  6. ooook...what happened to the neon? If it cracked, where did it crack, just soooo I can check mine out! lol!

    Hi John,

    The frame cracked on the drive side CNC plate that it welded onto the bottom bracket yoke. Personally I think you wont crack yours.

    Nath

  7. what happened to ozonys?

    Sold it to fund driving back in October. I have to admit, I miss the Ozonys!

    thats so nice.......love it

    whats the spec?

    Hope hubs, viz forks, trial-tech stem and bar, echo rims, echo cranks, trial-tech bb, fsa headset, hope monotrial front brake, magura hs33 rear.

  8. Tensile is skipping and im opening it up to have a look see. I have a bb tool and ready to open it, Ive heard that you turn the lockring the oposite way to normal?

    Cheers in advance.

    False! you open the lockring just like a standard thread, lefty loosy etc

    When you put it back together, put the pawls in first, then put the racket on next and then put the springs in with some tweesers and a small screw driver.

  9. This is a very good idea! Nice of you riders at tarty to think about the younger riders that cant make it. As for the people complaining about pick up points, Ads would have gone to alot of trouble to arrange this opertunity, so traveling a few hours down the motor way to a pickup point is'nt too much to ask for if your parasnts agree. (just my opinion, dont bit :P)

    **Change of plan, Will be going at another time of year.**

    Regards
