Were they not alternating hexagons (or octagons/decagons?) and random flower shapes?!

And on that line... did the Cheeky Girls not audition for Britain's Got Talent a couple of years back? I'm just guessing of courses as I'd never watch that sort of shit...

However... I doubt they could stop an American living in Britain from entering or a Brit living in the States from entering the Yank version. They'd be too scared of being scared for discriminating against someone.

I didn't know you were into that lifestyle choice, Muel...

That was really sweet guys! Mark- I can't remember the last time I saw a proper vid of you riding but damn you're handy on that Inspired! The BMX style really comes through but with a hell of a lot of control and trials power too- very impressed. The video had a really nice fun, flowy feel to it- downloaded for future reference .

It basically works as a ratio by dividing one by the other. 24:18 (24/18) = 1.333 whereas 18:12 (18/12) = 1.5 (a higher number being a harder gear). You can then go back the other way to find out what rear cog would suit an 18T front to give the same ratio: 18/1.333 = 13.5 so a 13T will be slightly harder than 24:18 and a 14T will be slightly easier.

You do know that 24:18 would equate to halfway between 18:13 and 18:14 don't you? 18:12 will be super stiff compared to your current set up.

I'm pretty much with Mark on this one- He seems to get a real kick out of being controversial and obnoxious for the hell of it. Both David C and Martin B come across as very intelligent and informed guys (which they are of course) but Eddie just comes across like a spoilt brat who's trying to make himself stand out by being different.

Ok... lets try this... For the next race I'd like to see Lewis' engine explode and Alonso to cruise to victory

I dunno- it looks pretty frickin' steep even on camera! Incline is apparently ~19%.

S'aaaalllll about Lewis... Would love to see the Ferrari's catch fire and DNF (Alonso particularly) and some grumpy Tifosi would just make my weekend! In related news my sister's gone over to Monza for the race... damn her!

In some American states you can marry your pickup/horse/donkey/sheep. *May not be entirely true.

You both know exactly what I mean. Putting a 19(?) year old in a 500bhp supercar is asking for trouble. When I was 17 one of my mates passed his test and got insured on his dads 2L Impreza. Not even a turbo but we all thought it was a stupid idea and surprise surprise within a week he'd written the thing off by rolling it into a field.

Come on, like he do tha... oh, wait.

See that's fine until he loses it while showing off to his mates, plows into a bus stop or family coming the other way and kills a few innocent people. It's just too much car for someone so young. I don't even want to consider the insurance bill. Sure most people would accept it if offered but I for one would've expected to be thoroughly hated/bullied/murdered for being such a spoilt little brat.

I'd have to disagree there again. I do agree the list of proper good American riders is pretty slim but I imagine even Jeff Lenosky or JJ Gregorowicz would've done a better job. Mike Steidley would've wiped the floor with Jeremy I think.

It's quite clearly all a front. I bet the mafia own half the Italian restaurants in Italy but it doesn't make the background business legit.

Is it Venice Beach Ca?... can't remember now.

You seriously can't mean that.

Like it .

I bet he is .

Come on... did they ever?

I'm sorry to say but I still really underwhelmed . Good on him for getting so far of course and I hope he wins but I find it hard to believe of all the other talents out there the American public are going for this. I guess there is the element of Jeremy himself being a very down to earth, normal kid who just wants the best for his family, rather than the usual American: 'Woooo! Yeahhh! Man I am the greatest! Y'all should vote for me 'cos I am da bomb!' type arrogance.

Well you could've shared damnit!

And that was back in April as well. Surely he was still 'running' Trials-UK then wasn't he? Well, at least that explains the Audi R8 (and subsequent selling thereof?)...
