  1. Not such a fan of this video, but his page has got his classic Ultimate mod video in original quality, and loads of other old videos I have never seen of him before, they are ridiculous!
  2. Just tried CCCP, worked perfectly.
  3. That sounds hilarious! I'm so doing that!
  4. Surely this is your job not ours. An easier way to think of what is not on the market, is to think of what is already on the market, and think if it satisfies the job it is used for.
  5. I'm actually fairly bored of gaming. I've got an Xbox 360 Elite, used for watching DVDs and Trials HD sometimes. My favourite of consoles was the Gamecube, that thing had so much potential, the ergonomics of the controllers were ace, small disc size and the size of the console itself was brilliant!
  6. Captain Scarlet

    Films!?

    Memento Reservoir Dogs American History X Se7en Terminator 2 Naked Gun 1, 2 and 3 (funniest films ever?) I need to watch more really, but those are my favourites.
  7. Its a touchy subject as it depends entirely how much you like the original. If the original is your favourite song then I'm sure you wouldn't want it covered. I can think of many covers that I love, but I didn't like or found the original too boring. Vice versa, I can think of many covers which I think "killed" some brilliant originals, but that is because I love the original.
  8. Video is up. http://www.trials-forum.co.uk/forum/index....howtopic=147383
  9. Had an awesome ride yesterday in London, these were the clips I got. Vimeo Video ->Original Video Also credit to the beastly Scottish guy with his rolling gap at the end (sorry I didn't catch your name).
  10. Some ridiculous and inspiring went down! Video will be up later.
  11. Don't suppose anyone will be riding the rails and ending up at Liverpool street? GASH!
  12. But that goes with anything in life, anything will have a risk to it, especially if you don't treat it with consideration. Should be in the motorbike thread, but 2 stroke is your way to go. Everything is converting over to 4 stroke because of the old emissions malarkus, so while you can get yourself a 2 stroke which will be capable of a decent speed of 50mph or so. Understandably, the law states that the moped must not exceed a speed of 31mph for a 16 year old, but restricted mopeds are ridiculously dangerous, its the reason why I condone on 4 strokes as they don't move anywhere! Some car drivers can be incredibly stupid and will do just about anything to overtake a moped, even if you are travelling at the correct speed limit. Used wisely, mopeds are one of the easiest and cheapest modes of transport about. Just make sure its a 2 stroke.
  13. I think it would be awesome, I'm just imagining the controls almost like the controls for Skate. Imagine that your left stick controls your upper body (so that would be pulling the bars into you, away from you, whatever move you may be doing), your right stick controls your lower body movement (so that would be where your arse is positioned when balancing the bike, or when you go for a gap or tuck), and then finally your left trigger can act as your brakes, whilst the right trigger acts as a pedal kick. But no matter how good an idea it is, or how much I would like it to happen, I personally don't think it will.
  14. It depends it is how helpful the dealer is at the end of the day. I purchased a used motorbike which came with a free 6 month warranty, I took it back after a month as it developed a rattle (later turning out to be a job of cam chain and tensioner, approx £250 including labour). They didn't want to know and said that their warranty only covered me if the part actually failed on me. I know for one that I wouldn't like to chance a cam chain snap at 70mph.
  15. Just a variation on the original Bill Malone's; Sam the Bellhop. Youtube Video -> ">" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350">
  16. I used to perform, Close-up mainly card magic and manipulation. Also done a bit of stage mentalism, that is where the fun and reaction is at, also a lot more daunting though. I did it for about 5 years, now I just pick up the pack of cards for a personal practice once in a while, but haven't performed in a good couple of years.
  17. Geeza on the T-Pro and bloke on the Ice really stood out for me, super slick style! Really makes me wanna go Leeds uni now, saw a couple of spots when I came up for a uni trip. Good work lads!
  18. http://tv.isg.si used to all the rage for downloading trials videos, not heard of many people using it in recent years, but there are some classic Nezza and CLS videos on there.
  19. Teeth or frame, I know which I'd rather have.
  20. I wouldn't recommend this hub if your running a rear disc, as it puts the rotor ridiculously close to the frame. I will have to try the idea of flipping the cog over, only problem I can see in the long term is the chain line itself is on the piss, which would wear the chain out quicker.
  21. Absolutely loved Time For Play, used to watch that religiously, brilliant editing and great mixture of riding styles. Now to relish in some classic videos!
  22. You would not be able to tell if the deck is noticeably thicker just by watching the video, unless it was a serious amount of cards. Even easier than adding cards to the deck, is either a short card or an injog card before the desired card (known as the force card). You can try it at home, flick through a pack of cards, with an injogged card before the one you want to 'force' onto your spectator.
  23. I'm gonna jump in and say Chelmsford, its January so Clacton would be a tad optimistic, and I wasn't such a fan of Southend last time, nor the train fare. Something simple to start off the year.
