Humm I was thinking about doing that, it's a pretty burly rime so I think it will be strong enough but it's also a pretty expensive rim (Y)" so I don't want to trash it I'll have no pads left if I drill the sidewall :P

As the title says i've just bought myself a lovely Sun doublewide but would like to make it a little lighter (Y) I'm gona grind a braking surface onto it and the i would like to drill some hols in it but not sure how big to go? I was thinking about 25mm holes? if anyone has any advice or any pictures of drilled doublewides that would be great. cheers matt

Trials in about 5 hours and the weather looks go (touch wood) hope to see most of you there today ;) cheers matt

It's pretty chunky most of it is motorbike trials but there's getting to be a lot of cycle trials in there now ;) I saw your bit Nadine :D good on you for getting yourself out there Slinger doesn't ride the T-pro now, he's riding that funky proto with the odd chainstays. Yes Waynio is on the new levelboss in that pic matt

No the ronnie and echo rims are cery different. Got any pics of this GU built up then :)"

I have :sick:" been in one that is oh and seen a couple at shows. Was bloody fun but in rather keep frontwheel drive and have a V-Tec conversion :blink: We had a Suzuki SJ 4x4 in the shop yesterday and we lined it up with some of the minis and is just begging for a mini shell to be stuck on it (Y)" I will get some pictures of my mint shell later, not a single plate! matt

Right do you know where Ippllepen is? Basically get to there and you'll see our bit orange arrows directing you to the trial :blink: Tic just bring the entry on the day, atleast you know i'll get it (Y) cheers matt

Been doing Motor trials (I hate saying that :blink: ) about 5 years and cycle trials (thats sounds even gayer (Y) ) about 4 I would say that cycle trials has helped my motor trials more than the other way round. Although I do seem to have good staminer on the push bike which could be due to the motorbike?? One big thing though that i've got from motor trials is tactical dabbing and using my dabs, I see a lot of people rushing to get there feet back on the pedals after they dab and thus causing more problems. I take it a bit slower and us my dabs like I would on the motorbikes and I think this has helped a lot. On the other side I get a lot of good techniques from the bicycles to use on the motobike and am now just mastering 'crank hops' on a motorbike ;) My conclusion if you want to get into motobike trials and can afford it do ti because it's a right laugh and both disciplines go hand in hand with helping each other (Y) Just for you Ali :sick:" me on my shiny bike but I did pay for it myself.

Ok imagine when it's fully of bike bits :blink:" imagine walking in thinking humm what crazy bike of dreams shall I build today (Y)

ha just read that email (Y) looks pretty big, lets hope they start stocking some trials bit now :blink:

Grame Jarvis was a biketrials champion as was Joe Baker I belive was Adam Raga and Toni Boi These are all top quality motorbike trials riders who have started on pedals and moved to engines. Oh and there's me, well I'm pretty good with the engine less said the better about man powered trials (Y) Not sure if anybody knew? (you only would if you've read the whole article) But the bike was boult buy a bloke who works for Hope, thats why it's so hoperfied :blink: matt

It's pretty smart (Y)" the lad was riding it around at Addingham last sunday was very smart and it convinced my dad to get one for my 5 year old brother :blink: Do you have all the pics? if not I can put up the rest I thought it was a bit over kill with a Hoe trial on and 18" wheel :sick: matt

Non riders will be parking just down the road from addingham moorside so nice and close :blink: Yes you have to pay to watch but i'm not sure if this has been finalized last time I talked to Barbara it was in the region of £5 including a program but don't quote me. Skipton will me closed off for the opening parade and then again for the prize giving. Hope this has all helped (Y) matt

You mean a blender or a smoothie maker??

Cool topic :'( Not a very good pic but thats Bonehill Tor about 10 mins from my house where I ride most nights :lol: and Hound tor which is 12 from my house :P big picture so I linked it :( Not to many curbs here! matt

So there's going to be 4 of us then :'( Looks like I could be in for a win for once :lol:

What about megemos?? :'( I quite like them but have just purchased a Tibo so if I keep to my old recorde I should have that for another two years :P

Really :lol: Not down here people give them away thats how I got mine it failed the mot and the guy couldn't be borthered to do it so got a new car :'(

Cheers rich :P :P see you on saturday :ermm: oh whats nutcombe?

I'd try and get one with a better shell. I'm currently doing my mini :lol: completly stripped shell and it's never had a plate in it's life :'( not bad for a 25 year old car My dad shall be giving it a complete in and out re spray, should be nice :(

If your intrestead in riding the comp give me a pm and i'll get some stuff off to you. :'(

Struth a trial thats close and i'm not the one organising it :- ;) I'm there and I can also pic up some tips for our indoor trial in september (Y)

Nice frame not really my cup of tea but hey (Y) What I do find annoying thought is how you have asked if it's possible when you know you've done it ;) whats the point why not just show it to us no be honest I think thats a bit poor to try and hype everyone up and then show us pics. matt :-

So what BT have done it then have they?? (Y)" if you had the stays mounted to the seat tube and not the BB then I think you could get it pretty much touching the stays but i'm not sure how long that would be? matt

Humm doesn't really get me going to be honest (Y) my aunty is a lesbian so I can't really look at other lesbians in that way without thinking about my aunty :- anyway no not for me i'd rather have a bit of action myself ;) matt
