He was a complete wanker quite a few times in his career... I'll never forgive him for f**king Damon Hill over in 1994 and was so glad he didn't manage it again with Villeneuve in '97. Would be good to see him getting his ass whipped by all the youngsters at Valencia!

Only confirmed for the European GP although I imagine it'll be for the duration of Massa's absence

It's not that bad. There are enough different types of races and machines to make it entertaining for a while, particularly considering it must be coming up to 10 years old! The trials section itself is amusing enough. There are a total of 12 sections but once you've got the hang of the controls and know the sections it's not exactly challenging... Quite amusing when you get the bear riding a minimoto round Laguna Seca though... or the flying super pig character... It's probably worth getting the cheat to allow you access to everything from the start as earning the credits to buy extra tracks and bikes takes time.

Yup, just had a missed call from Terry telling me that they've called it off. Bad times .

Unfortunately they also failed to model his dad who ought to follow him round shouting: TYRE LEFT. PERFIC'!

Ok, so I tried reinstalling MR3 on my PC but because I've got the wrong service pack it wouldnt work so I bought Gold Edition on Amazon... I also found a CD with all the mods I had from when I played it back in 2002 or so! Sherco: Dougie Lampkin on the Radson Montesa circa 2002: Also got complete packs for supermoto bikes, different tracks, jet bikes and all sorts... Ah good times

It really isn't! That's straight off the camera and possibly compressed to put on Facebook.

The only way it will ever be problem is if the virus actually mutated to become far worse than the common flu, which at the moment it isn't in the slightest. What you're describing is when only a small town is infected with a properly deadly virus (human made wasn't it?). Swine Flu is already pretty much world wide isn't it? So your authorities/government/military would have to nuke the entire planet to get rid of the virus. I'm going ot go out on a limb here and say that's slightly unlikely.

That post is so much BS I don't even know where I'd start... But I'll just comment on "kids like crazy things like jumping of high dangerous things, far and fast, and nuts stuff.... but when someone brings out a video like that all you lot do is moan..... so nobody brings them videos out anymore". Yes kids like cool dangerous stuff, far and fast. I'm guessing the videos you're talking about are all the TGS videos that people like Ben Lazenby and Mat Smith keep bringing out which lets face it are none of the above. They also wear jeans which are far closer to the 'latex' stuff you're talking about than any normal trials rider has been seen in in the past 10 years. I don't imagine kids giving two shits about someone sidehopping from static up various sized walls and rails... So yes, when those guys bring out a sidehop video expect abuse because it's dull, boring and less like trials than Danny Mac. If no one brings out those vids anymore the world would be a better place. The video you describe- far, fast and nuts is exactly what Danny's doing on a bike and instead of everyone just saying 'that's not trials', maybe more people should be thinking about taking inspiration from his riding and going out to try more fun, flowy stuff and trying new stuff rather than just finding a wall that's 1/2" higher than the last one so everyone can try almost making the sidehop to it. And if you weren't meaning Lazenby and Smithesque vids sorry, but the point still stands just not aimed at you .

Specially tuned springs that allow you to preload to increase height of ups, taps, hooks, sidehops etc... And noooo to the risc brake. Too problematic in a sport where buckled rims are inevitable and where rotational mass should be kept to a minimum to increase acceleration.

Unfortunately in the UK at least I think that seems to be more and more the case... sad but true.

What was the disc contaminated with? Did you clean the disc rotor before putting the new pads on? Otherwise yeah chuck some water on there and ride around with the brake rubbing to get it good and hot and it should bed in reasonably quickly. Also worth scuffing up the pads before putting them in (rub them over some concrete or file them a bit) to get the glaze off.

It can't be far off the colour of my Inspired is it Oli? That's RAL 5015 Sky Blue... Rich (KarsonLeveret) might be able to find out for you if you want a proper match...

Will it? Doesn't it depend if the hub's a Pro2 Trials or just a standard Pro2 designed for an 8/9 speed cassette... Never owned one so may be talking poo.

One more random one from Jo Clark. Looks kinda like I'm a giant riding along the horizon. Or is that just me?...

Dropped off my entry with Hazel today and that brought the grand total of entries to... 11.

I couldn't believe how fugly that Tramontana thing was on Fifth Gear...

PC Geek.

Nah, it's fine. If it can take a 135kg Arial motorbike with a ~15 stone guy on it it can easily take a few 9-10kg pushbikes with 10-11 stone guys on them!!

Some nice pics there Oli . Have you decided what frame you're going to get next?!

You should stop now .

When that urge hits you...

Annoying dippy cow?

Not as well as Kurt Brain it seems though...
