Ride down a hill dragging the brake then cool the disc down by pouring water over it. Repeat until bedded in. This method has worked on all the disk brakes I have owned. You should love the 160 Joe! We ride similar bikes and are both midgets, I get on really well with my brake so you will be 'reet.

Got the frame today. I have sold it already which will make me a tidy profit Thanks Tarty Bikes! Oh and thanks to Tom for being crazy enough to do the rally this year!

Really liked that video Yain. I will have to come along for another night ride with you guys soon, I really enjoyed the last one

I have that installer, its the quicktime standalone player from the quicktime site. Its just whenever I try to play files quicktime crashes, or it will only play the sound with no picture! Quicktime always used to work, it stopped working when I last did a fresh install I might give that k-lite codec a go soon, cheers for trying to help!

Why the f**k wont Quicktime install on this 'puter I am missing out on so many embedded videos just cos I have to use VLC player to play .mov files

I dont think anyone plans to crash their car. Maybe I should never let anyone travel in my car just in case I have a crash? Anyway, glad your all ok! Especially you George, the last thing I want to do anywhen soon is go to another funeral for a trials-forum user...

Thats exactly why im telling you to go for a 180 chris!

James, if your friendly with any of your lbs' maybe you could ask about renting or borrowing one of their demo bikes?

Give me a chance Mark, I havent been on here since:

Not sure about France but at Afan in Wales it costs £30 a day to rent a hard tail or £40 a day for full sus. They also do deals for multiple days, eg £70 to rent a full sus for 2 days... Either way have fun, freeride/XC/Downhill will be a breath of fresh air for you compared to trials

Highways agency free gift band thing actually. Note that the photo in my exibitors pass is the wrong way around because I didnt stick it down when making up the pass Also RAC lemon stress ball in one of my hands....

Dont forget the 2005 roadtrip when I was walking around Tesco's in Salisbury at around 10pm and met Bucky etc... I dont think I had ever spoken to any of them in real life but I recognised them from videos/photos and noticed Bucky's chain tatoo

WHAT AN AMAZING TRIP Im at home now though Everyone I was working with were really cool, its a shame they were from all over the country but I will try to keep in contact and hopefully meet some of them again. I only met one person off here over the whole 8 days, that was Joe Maher. I am 99% sure I said hi to another rider but I havent got a clue who is is off here, I am just sure I have met him on rides with Sam Hewit and Jonny Jones?! If your reading this please identify yourself, you were there last weekend and you have a star tatoo on your elbow. In between work I managed to take 400 pictures which I will now have to sort through...

Wooooo yeah, get in Got back yesterday from an AMAZING trip to London working at the Motor Show, I didnt want to leave Just to confirm, yes I am Peter Haydon, but I am called Tic by most people...

Danny, you try and find the sort by modified option with MY MUSIC FOLDER using the method you just posted

You pushed your car up snakey You then pushed your car accoss the main Devizes road and coasted all the way down the avenue, past the Wilton MOD place, around that relatively tight roundabout at the park and ride, over the Wilton Road roundabout, managed to continue on the flat and get through the traffic lights in the centre of Wilton then all the way still on the flat to your house on the other side of wilton just coasting? YOU LEGEND!!! That must a good 2 miles!

The caravan holiday was one of the funniest things I have ever seen on Top Gear!

BUMP. There must be some more people going?!!!!

Just watched that 2 more times and I am amazed by the quality of the filming, its obviously been compressed for the internet but even with this compression the clarity (as jonny puts it) is amazing. It should look great being played from DVD onto a proper TV! It looks like they are gonna be hyping this to the max by releasing new trail previews at set dates until the release, sadly I think it has worked on me and I want my copy now!

Agreed!

F**k! That will be a sickening video section

Seen this before. Also if anyone watches Hustle they will remember the first ever episode (I am 99.9% sure it was the first episode) when 2 of them get dropped off in the middle of London completely naked and they have one day to make as much money as they can. It was a classic episode

Shut up Mark, I have been well behaved recently Did you make sure diet Simon mixed his spirits with Diet Coke? Think how much more fun NASS would be with the addition of alcohol Simon! HAHA

Is the worst one by any chance the side you use a computer mouse with?
