  1. Chris Doney did the Top Gear live thing two or three years ago. Lucky bugger got to drive most of the cars as well since the crew was so small! Think he was riding with Jason Finn wearing camo ninja gear or something odd like that... Worlds smallest pic:
  2. Wait, what? I thought it was celebrating Santa's birthday.
  3. I dunno- I was VERY relieved when my son came out normal (wife is a ging).
  4. Update to the proposed test changes on MCN: http://www.motorcyclenews.com/MCN/News/newsresults/General-news/2012/November/nov1912-last-minute-changes-to-bike-test-rules/_/R-EPI-138683
  5. That's a small tablet, not a phone... Don't get them, surely you're going to need a bloody handbag to carry the thing round in?!
  6. Yeah my mum killed her MINI going through a ~1ft deep flood because their intake is pointing downwards at the bottom of the front grill. Genius design. German quality f**king engineering my arse.
  7. Stuck is the same for the three tenses so nice and easy. That bolt's gonna get stuck; damnit that bolt is stuck; f**k me that bolt was stuck.
  8. Combined with having Kenny as the poster boy.
  9. Depends on the frame and BB I'd guess.
  10. Kindle paperwhite? Google Nexus 7? New bike?
  11. If all else fails clamp the end of the axle in a vice and get some leverage on there!
  12. Tighten the other side with the wheel in the frame then undo the stuck one.
  13. Just a shame he's such a fanny.
  14. That's never Sam Pilgrim... He's got all his teeth for a start!
  15. I haven't done anything like that myself but my auntie did the IAM course and thought it was worthwhile. A lot of the people that do the courses are or were police riders so they're bloody fast but always riding within their limits and to the current conditions. I think they're more about looking for dangers, picking up on little things which indicate whether there's a tractor round the corner or whether the corner is about to increase in radius or decrease etc. P.S. This may be the wrong forum for what you're after...
  16. Maybe in theory but not in practice for trials.
  17. When did that happen? Together with: Interesting.
  18. Not worth starting a new thread so dug this one up. Just noticed that in the new pricing structure with GG if you buy a £10 Goodybag you get 1GB of data for which tethering is allowed (with a cost of 2p/MB if you run out in the Goodybag period) and for the £12 Goodybag you get unlimited data but tethering isn't allowed. Makes sense but worth bearing in mind.
  19. You're probably right! See that was one of the reasons I thought he was partially sighted not fully blind. I've seen blind people's eyes and as you say, they tend to kind of wander and since they can't see anything never pick up on anything specific but in the program at the end he basically looked at the guy behind the camera then at the camera like probably you or I would.
  20. I refuse to believe he was actually properly blind. The kit could only tell him when he was passing objects like trees: there's no way of it telling him where the trail was going at ground level. Neat but done for the cameras I think.
  21. [sucks air through teeth] Tomm's a doctor (a real doctor not a fake doctor like me) who knows his shit.
  22. Horrid, horrid 'sport' (is it a sport or a game or just a way to avoid the wife while wasting masses of land while acting and looking like a knob?) .
