  1. The way I see it is that I don't think he was a paedophile, not in the real sense of someone who sexually lusts after kids. I think his upbringing messed him up so much that he was basically always living his life as a child (something he wasn't allowed to do when he actually was a child) and the only people who could really relate to that were children. I don't think there was anything properly sinister about it, and the charges and claims amounted to people praying on him as a weak person with sooo much money and so little grasp on 'normal' people's lives. On another note (sorry), It's come to light that he didn't die in hospital of a heart attack he was in the children's ward having a stroke.
  2. Exactly he must've been innocent.
  3. I'm afraid that means absolutely nothing. The whole court case was a joke- he turned up in pyjamas on a least one day... just a massive publicity stunt which proved nothing. And yeah, I don't want to turn this into a slagging match or start arguments. If anything it should've been his father on trial for screwing up his kid so much. I think it's a shame how things turned out for him in the later part of his life; he should be remembered for his contribution to music, which was considerable.
  4. Yeah, the 26" ones were around 2kg each... I'm still running DMR Moto RT's and I imagine if you pump them up to 60psi or whatever they'd be perfect for park but wouldn't screw you up if you actually wanted to ride some more normal street too.
  5. That's a whole different ballgame though... To hell with ignoring them if they come round my house they'll get told in no uncertain terms to get the f**k away from my house. I got a leaflet through the door from them the other day telling me how they're going to deal with the end of the world (which is imminent apparently). Shame I missed them really. I also got a leaflet through the other day from a Scientology church which is opening in Bournemouth apparently. Never before have I wanted to commit arson quite so much...
  6. I know it'll ruin your 'do but helmet Mr Hazel! Bike looks good and it looks like you're getting used to it fast . Will have to go out for a ride somewhen.
  7. It can't be a good thing that I had no idea what that said until I went to reply and saw the file name...
  8. 995g (that's nearly 1kg) - 700g (that's not quite so nearly 1kg) = 295g. The lightest trials bars around at the moment are 211g (try-all carbon's). Either 700g is an exaggeration or the bars must've been cut down about 6" either side! Edit 1: Also, the change in mass is unlikely to make your riding a lot better- that's more likely down to the change in geometry and general set up of the controls. Edit 2: HIGH FIVE! Edit 3: I love lamp.
  9. Most don't, however the Pulmonata family of slugs and snails have developed something called a pallial lung.
  10. I was thinking that- car looks really fast and well put together but it looks like the driver is way off the limit. Edit; specifically for the second run in the second vid- he could've been on the gas much more for most of that run. Looks like fun though!!
  11. I'm not convinced that it will work with Magura's either unfortunately... Someone like Adam at Tartybikes would be able to answer that in a second though! Good luck .
  12. I'll be available at any time of the day or night to shout abuse at you, laugh and make fun of you and call you a loser for your addiction to death sticks . You're welcome .
  13. I only saw a 2 second clip on an advert the other day- recognised Dougie and just guessed it would be a presenter. I was wrong .
  14. Been a bit rubbish about getting this together but Andy and my vid: "NBR31: Life Flows Better" Vimeo Video -> Original Video Tune is 'Come on Train' by Don Thomas (Ian Parton mix). If you like it, feel free to vote for it in the Trials Chat forum . Obviously a bit of inspiration may have come from a certain Visa advert but we thought it fitted the 'travel' topic nicely by trying to make the vid as one continuous line to move round the sweet little trials spot near my house.
  15. Hmm... not convinced! Where's Sayshell when you need him?
  16. Yup! Took a few attempts to get some bits done too so yeah, I was a bit dead by the end... If you like it, don't forget to vote .
  17. You're reeeeaaaalllly not helping yourself here you know...
  18. I find that very, very, very unlikely... Kind of like religion too, I guess.
