Well I have just got back and showered I am so tired but it was all worth it was one of the most memorable moments in my life, such an atmosphere! Theres no way the TV could do it justice!!

No No NO! Waste of money break all the time unless your gunna get a good one although they are great fun. Just annoys me (as a biker and driver) when people ride em on the road cause sometimes you cant see em and I'm sure if I killed some little chav ridin one on the road with no tax mot or insurance or licence or helmet I'd get done for it

I prefer quiet bikes makes a nice change loud hubs P me off, annoys me when people dismantle their hubs and remove any lube to make them louder-the lubes in there for a reason!

Well my first tension seeker didnt last fitting :"> and the second one lasted about an hour! Bought a surley and it's been on there for over a year (Y)

Not bad mate how long did it take you to make? we have gotta get a big one together over summer

I said if someone adds for a legitimate reason then alls fine it's just these people that add you and never say a word, if he did add he needs to talk to me cause I will never get round to it lol

Sorry just thought I would put a quick post up about this, does anyone else seem to get loads of random people obviously from here (names like brisa or trials in email name) adding them? I have so many people on my msn that just add me and never try to say hi or anything just add me, I understand if it's for a reason like asking about buying something or a friendly chat but most of these people seem to be doing it to get more names in their msn. So you know who you are.....stop adding random people and go get some real friends :) lol

Girlfriend has to be top of my list althouth ask me a few years ago and it would have been bike all the way!

just use plastic one's they are light and disposable. And why the hell would you want big dice or 8 ball etc ones anyway they just look cheap imo even something worthwhile like my motorbike does not have expensive dusties just got some plain ally ones free with a mag once

Have a laugh and meet people really more social biking than anything else

Well mentioned this to my dad who is a Sgt Major in the Royal Marines he says he knows all about it one of his marines is being done at the moment because some chav tried to take him down whilst running so he took him out and his other 4 mates who tried to step in and have a go. Good Example of Chavs picking the wrong guy and good exaple of out shite law system

Personally I dont know if I would buy prints of any rider, but I would buy one if it was of me and I'd prefer a photograhic Print rather than a poster

If I remember rightly Sodium Hydroxide gets Aluminium Oxide off thats why it's used in anodising. So try some of that (dont get it on your skin) if you cant source it find a product that contains it (many household cleaners have a certain %age of it) this should gte rid of corrosion. Try and aerosol of some kind like deoderant of something, you know if someone sprays it on your skin for ages it's freezing? (come on everyones tried it!) Try spraying this all over the inside of the seatpost which may just shrink it enough to budge it with a persuasion tool

Nice mate, I keep thinking of building abike up from my old parts! Why dont u cut the seatpost a little

6 :lol:

Yeah we have also had the cheesewire thing, we always check the tracks before riding now, luckily I'm quite short

Just saw this on another forum and thought people should read it especially if you are from up that way: http://ichuddersfield.icnetwork.co.uk/0100...-name_page.html Hope whoever put the stuff there reads this and has it on their mind.

Putting harder springs in I found was good dont know about putting 6 in instead of 3 though. There are 3 for a reason

Just send it off to Hope they are great at gettting things repaired for you pretty fast service too. I dont know about sending the whole wheel because if they change the outer of the hub or the hub needs removing they will not rebuild the wheel.

I love carbon and it is more than man enough to stand up to all forces

Bad weather and the fact 99.9% of the time I just cant be bothered to do anything

I would put it on the way it says to since the nice people at maxxis have spent years researching what way round to put their tread patturns

You can set it up really cheap if you just rob the kitchen and a power source (car battery). I did it in college when I was doing Chemistry, I took a glass beaker, sodium summint (can't remember the name), aluminium foil and a power pack. Really simple set up but it worked very well I keep meaning to do it again

Yeah why do you need these?? I might be able to get a pic depends if I can get my camera to work

As soon as I can get my site to work there will be a link on there
