Mark, it's definetly called a 'Spork'. It was first invented by Rahl Dahls dad (who lost an arm in the RAF) and he needed something that would allow him to eat all the food on his plate easily with an arm missing (Y) I believe he sharpened one side of it too... or I could still be intoxicated... (Y) PS. Either mush them (mushy pees) or add gravy (Y)

hehe, you're right Tomm I didn't quite word that right... A sprain can be muscular OR to do with ligaments. So basically what I meant to say is that it's either the muscles or the ligaments. My bet is on the ligaments (Y) Bare in mind if you damage your ligaments it's going to take longer to FULLY heal than a broken bone. So make sure you do RICE and look after it really well AS SOON AS POSSIBLE to prevent any further damage to the raw tissue/ligaments/muscle/whatever. (Y)

Ahhh nice one. I still can't actually get the site to work - but thanks for pasting the info Tom :lol: Appreciate it (Y)

I'm trying to look at the pashley trials frames... But I really don't understand the site! Site Here Can somebody explain please?

Having had quite a lot of experience with dodgy ankles over the years I might be able to help :shifty: The first thing is that, since you need to ask whether it could be broken... It definetly isn't. Trust me, you'd know about it (Y) What you have done is a nasty sprain, possiblly damaging the ligaments... But doubtful. From what you said, it's basically just a sprain, and the swelling isn't actually that bad at all, so don't worry :lol: Treatment Get away from the computer and plonk yourself infront of the television, then get your ankle high to reduce swelling and put an ice pack or some frozen peas (wrapped in a towel) on it every 1-2 hours for 15 mins. REST - Don't walk on it or anything ICE - Every hour for 15mins to begin with, then go to every 2 hours for 15mins COMPRESSION - When using the ice, keep it firmly held against the swelling ELEVATION - keep it up high on a pillow

I haven't actually seen that advert... I stole it from 'The Calcium Kid". I didn't believe it at first though so I did some research (Y)

Don't be ridiculous! >_<

I'm all for starting a group of 'Anti Text Talkers' I absolutely refuse to use any form of Text Talk (with the exception of 'lol' and 'lmao' since these have almost become words instead of an acronym) When I text it is ALWAYS written in sentences and with full words. This is the way it should be in my opinion. Does anyone else feel offended by Text talk? I know I do. To me when somebody puts "elo ow r u?" I think to myself, does this person really care? Are they really that bothered how I am? Bullshit they are, because if they really were bothered they would have spent the time to type the word out properly. Join the revolution? Say it load and say it proud - ANTI-TEXT POWER!

Word. Amazing when you think about how something so difficult and seemingly impossible can be taken for granted >_< Thanks. I guessed that if something like this inspired me... a very uninspirable person - it might do something for other people (N) hehe, I'm guessing they made a model Bee... If not that may be infringing on some Animal Rights laws :D :P

We all get those days where we wonder... what’s it all about? Why bother? Why's life so hard? Things like that. So I thought it would be nice to post about what inspires you. If there's a gap that you want to try but you’re a bit scared, is there something you think about? What gives you the strength to triumph over evil in your everyday lives? Here is mine. It's a little bit of scientific theory based around the humble Bumble Bee. Many of you probably already know this, but for those who don't... Here comes the little fact about this insect. According to scientific research into Bumble Bees, they shouldn't be able to fly. This theory goes as follows; firstly the shape of the Bumble Bee is such that it has very very poor aerodynamics resulting in massive drag when travelling through the air. Secondly, the Bumble Bee is a very large, heavy insect (when you put things into perspective) meaning that it requires great lift to be able to take off. Now comes the most important factor - Wingspan & Power. The size of a Bumble Bees wings are far to small to be able to support the weight of the Bumble Bee and the Power to Weight ratio of the Bumble Bee is such that it is (in theory) physically impossible for the Bumble Bee to be able to fly. This has been proved through the usage of wind tunnels and tests carried out in labs. Now, we all know that a Bumble Bee DOES in fact fly... But how? This is the part that gives me inspiration... Is the Bumble Bee able to fly because it doesn't know it shouldn't be able to fly? I suppose this is a lot like the Placebo Effect (the theory that we are capable of doing anything if we focus our mind) So when I think to myself 'I can't do this' I stop for a second and wonder - If the Bumble Bee thought like that... Could he fly?

Shitters. Sounds pretty serious Andy. Just spoke to me dad and he said exactly the same type of thing as these guys are saying. He did mention it could be something to do with your big end though... Maybe you should take it into a garage and have it checked out and quoted for or whatever... Gutted :)

Searched for 'html' and on the evry first page of results... Click Above.

Dude do a search. There was a topic in here a week or so ago with loads of links to good HTML coding sites with beginners guides and allsorts (some cheatsheets too). :)

You've obviously never seen Luis' !! It's gone downhill a bit now, but was the frickin' dogs bollocks when it was built up :) It's all gone a wee bit ghetto style now though :)

Lower the saddle a bit and you have a frickin awesome street machine :) Nice one, sus for trials is good too, so you'll still be able to do trials on it :) I like.

You really believe that? Do you not see that it's all to do with getting elected? It's the easiest thing in the world to say that, after an event has occurred and caused an uproar - 'We wouldn't have gone to war'. It's bullshit. Everything they say revolves around the hope that they'll get elected. Read what Bondy says... Word.

Yeah, basically there really is only one government. There's no two ways about it - whoever is elected is going to screw us over in one way or another. Sure they talk big now but can you really believe in what they tell us? An example is the 'war on terrorism'. Do you honestly believe that if labour hadn't been in power we WOULDN'T have gone to war? If you do you're living in a dreamworld. Whatever happens, whoevers in power, the same shit WILL go down and thats that. A very dim view, but very real all the same.

It doesn't really matter who you vote for. You always get the government.

A couple of friends and me did this today in lunchtime... It's awesome fun and creates such a great atmosphere! It's amazing how creative and expressive you can be by doing this, everyone pushes each other but in a friendly way... giving encouragement and really going crazy when someone pulls of something nice. The really amazing thing is that it doesn't even really matter tall or short you are or whether your super fit or whatever. I mean sure it helps, but you just adapt. For example I’m tall but for some reason (even though I ride trials a lot) I’m not very strong - these two things cancel each other out the same way that some people are short but strong... so in the end everyone is equal :P It really is a quite brilliant experience messing around in the warm sun on a couple of walls... Might get some photos tomorrow.

Great plan :P ska and punk rocks the fookin house down!

I'm selling a 2004 Trek Fuel 80 with the following spec... Trek Frame with Rock Shox rear shock and Manitou front Bontrager Select wheels Bontrager X LITE stem Bontrager Race Lite bars XTR rear mech XTR brakes XTR shifters XTR levers Michelin Wildgripper tyres (pretty worn, will give the original tyres too... hardly used) another pic and another last one! The bike hasn't been used a great deal because XC was never my favoured discipline... However, the bike has been used in a couple of seasons and raced me to 3rd and 2nd place overall in the summer and winter series'. Reason for sale: I destroyed my trials bike and need a new one! I'm looking for around £800 based on the high spec and I will post this insured. Please don't hesitate to ask me questions or for any more pics. No time wasters please because I am so desperate for a new trials bike!! Contact details; nichols_sam@hotmail.com - msn or email

No. They are such a big problem for people with dial-up that it makes loading up a page a pain in the arse! I'm pretty sure you wouldn't be able to switch them off either.. without a bit of code or summit - and who really wants to do all that? Also, why bother really? You have a display pic, gallery and personal pic... surely this is enough? I find signatures annoying at the best of times anyway and I'm sure other people do too! Especially ones with lots of lines and lots of colour... Personally I'm all for the restricting of signatures to three lines only...

I know it's useless now.. but i'll fill one in anyway - seems like fun How old are you? 17 What made you join Trials-Forum? Reccomendation of friends when i first started out Are you, or have you been a member of another Internet forum? Which one? What made you join? Too many too mention really. Couple of bike related ones, some computer related ones and a couple music ones - i only really tend to use TF though. How often do you use Internet forums? every day. Do you use forums specifically for getting answers to questions and discussing relevant topics, or do you use them to chat to friends as well (chit chat)? Depends on the forum. Trials forum sits neatly in the middle, whereas technical forums are mostly for questions/relevant topics and social forums are for meeting people (which really is relevant topics, so I suppose somewhat sits in both camps). Have you found yourself sat in front of an Internet forum for more than an hour, sifting through posts just to keep yourself entertained? Yes, quite often. Have you ever had an Internet forum as a homepage? No. Google is my friend. Have you ever had anal sex? (Y)" As a member of an Internet forum, do you feel like you belong to some sort of community? Trials-Forum makes me feel very warm and cosy :) Define the word community in your own words A family that has no blood relation. Do you feel you are a part of a community? (not trials forum) yes.
