trust anyone, an MOT has nothing to do with a road side inspection. does an MOT tell you when your tyres are bald? does it tell you when there is a bulb out? only if on that 1 day a year it requires an MOT' that it will know. everything else is purely down to drivers maintainance. thats by the by though. mike will hopefully be able to keep his licence if he can some how prove that he requires his licence, or if he can some how make an excuse to get past the problem. Wayne.

ask buck for his solicitors number. he must be the best around!!!! he has been the luckiest driver i know!!!! iv been driving 5 years and have ONLY just got 3 points on my licence. that was for the stupidest thing, impeding the solid white lines, while already in an overtaking position, not speeding, he was just been a fussy mother F**KER but at the end of the day, they have the power to do this to you. The police up here have nothing better to do than do you for something you werent expecting!!!! their WEIRD!!!! haha. Hope you get lucky mike, you may end up getting a bigger fine and like someone else has said maybe 5 points. Wayne.

matt its near crosshills where terrain used to be. down yonder there, pretty easy to find. Wayne.

like others have said. a big loss. Condolonses to his family. RIP Colin McRae and son. Wayne.

Bell me Peacock. il come. iv got a meeting that wednesday aswell for the Addingham moorside job. might aswell do as much as i can to try help with the trials park and the re-opening of addingham. Wayne.

very nice brakes. feel positive, they are specced on alot of marin bikes, the difference between the 3,5,7,then carbon and ultimate is better grade of alloy body/lever, pad adjustment on 7 and carbon levers on carbon, and the ultimate, well there pretty much FULLY machined, look really nice. but you will bust the bank getting one. best one would be at least a 5 of 7. Hope that helps dude, never used one for trials but i would have thought on a 20" bike a 160mm rotor would be great and a 26" bike use a 180. They feel very solid when there bedded in properly and have impressive stopping power. Wayne.

LMAO!!!!! Bongo, iv never tried that method. but as most others are saying, id deffinatly rather have a bird with something on them. (not mahoosive, or obeist) iv had small, skinny and then the "right" sized girls and like Br3n said, its so much better in bed with the right sized bird on top of you, you dont find yourself stuck to them at the hip !!! literally impaled on each other. and small girls do feel like there going to snap in half. iv ridden stiffer bike frames!!! than skinny girls but ofr sure, my current GF is by far the perfect size for me Wayne.

A new venue that is quite close to where i live, an old training spot that i have been using a whole lot more since the closure of addingham. OK this does clash with another competition, but hopefully there will be people support both events. Harden has been a very popular motorcycle venue in previous years, and hopefully will be a venue for us to use constantly in the future. The harden moor venue will be very good for the young guns and hopefully some knarly sections for the master/elite riders as there is plenty to go at. will try and go up and help mark out if i can. Hopefully see everyone up there. 30/09/2007!!! be there or be square. Wayne.

Good stuff Dan. it wasnt just me and thee who couldnt get up that sodding first post in the nissan section it took me 3 go's!! aswell. Congrats, didnt stay to see the results i was knakerd and piss wet through. Wayne

just got back home now. was a good laugh. sections were very fun was weird not being allowed to use pedals etc etc. sections and observing was great. i think the fairest observing i have ever seen!!!!! the 26" elite results are up now too.i think. iv never driven back from scotland and it be as quiet as it was, roads were very quiet. alot of traffic heading to fort william for the DH finals tomorrow. Wayne. Fontenoy is double world champ

Junior qualifying took place a few hours ago. had news from team manager George Eyre and heard the following: Chris Boyes qualified 6th (3/4/5/6 WERE all tied on 31, went to most cleans, they had the same, went to most 1's they all had the same!!!!so went to least/most 2's) this is how close the qualifying must have been. Joe Oakley 12th unfortunatly didnt qualify BUT was 3rd for quite along time until the other group of riders must have finished. Ladies qualifying (Lois Morgan) Friday AM til noon. 26" Junior qualifying tomorrow AM til noon, i think Joe Oakley will be riding this category tomorrow morning. Wayne.

iv had this problem a couple of times. Take a nice 6mm allen to the Pro2 bolts and give them a tighten, (OR whip em out and grease them, then put them back in and tighten them) it usually happens if your sidehopping and you land on the dropout or catch it, takes a knock and loosens the bolt ever so slightly. Wayne.

Ye £450 for full bike. Fred is in Fort William at the mo so he wont be able to post on here. The ZM3 which the Zhi dealers have already been having have square taper forged cranks and ACS freewheel. im not 100% but im guessing bionic will be only NSE/Koxx UK/Zhi UK which is Fred direct on 07000 442232 Give him until middle of next week to get sorted and back from Scotland and im sure he'll be able to help/sort you out. Im pretty sure the Bionic's are going to be quite popular especially at £165.00(ish) Wayne.

Nice sammy boy reminds me of last year before we went to Spain!!!! training on "your" rocks by the caravan. Hopefully get down there soon to see you all. Wayne.

the dropouts on the 26" bike are pretty nice, there quite long and keep the "tubes" short probably for improved stiffness. a frame/bike combo that will probably be quite popular when available. its good to see, that the 2 main companies in WBT keep innovating and re-designing, its good to see improvements and Monty/Koxx pushing the boundaries of frame research and development. 26" bike i think will be quite popular. i like it alot. Wayne.

mick sent me some more pictures of the sections last night, all i can say is they look quite fun the tree one looks pretty mint, the one near the bridge its like sections up in the tree's!!!! reminds me of robin hood where they build the houses up int tree's Wayne.

Cracking week, had a great laugh, was a good experience being a minder. no shit, no trouble, worry free. PERFECT Good rides/showers in the stream. was nice to be with the same family as last year. Will upload some pictures in the next few days. got quite a few, some will probably be going to the mag. Quality spending time with the Italians, if only trials was as laid back and relaxed as those guys off to Italy in October to visit Brumotti and Andrea, holiday and do some show work with him, then hopefully build up a relationship with those guys and maybe even move out there for a year or two, do some shows with Brumotti. Quality week in all, with only AWESOME to describe how good it was, it was even fun dressing up in the kung fu suits!!!! altho the midgeys did tend to nip you balls. Wayne. EDIT: yes the BMX section was 30 second time limit 1 dab PER 15 or 30 seconds, if you took longer than 2mins it was a 5, didnt matter if you dabbed, you just had to get round as fast as you can, fastest round was Ben Savage 24.45 i timed him at on his 2nd lap, his 1st lap was 25.60 or summit.

see you there travesty!!!! il be there quite late on thursday, so if your there before me, you and dunc just go to our place and say a room for Mr Mahomet. lol. Sections looking good, will be a nice refreshing change to trying something new, not looking to do well, just going to go and have a good laugh. Already planned on coming home saturday night. Wayne.

looks like i have found my new ride. That bionic B1 is pretty much identical Geo to Yaabaa Bow's. stroll on. Cheap as chips. That white bike in japan looked great built up. Wayne.

kool, i find that the 18-16 you can use smaller run up for taps etc. Try a half link chain, mark the pin you join it with (in case it snaps where it was joined) and if the chain snaps, check the link that it snaps on and see if it is because it has been trapped (which it will leave dust/mark from the wall, if you get me) Wayne.

Hey Ian, could you forward me that picture of getting up that roof to my e-mail addy??? havent seen many pictures from that practise session. was a good laugh. Wayne.

Good luck to all. Hope Andrei recovers soon.........is he going to be travelling to Japan? i take it everyone is flying from Belgium to Japan???? Wayne.

Just go to competitions and have fun Dont worry about rules. Unless your doing something really seriously wrong, most comps are pretty chilled and have a good atmosphere. Wayne.

we have yet to get to Heathrow, and take off, we may have to run some hippys over on the run way 1st there is some sort of strike on about a new runway iv heard? dont you worry sonny JIM! im staying well away from everything apart from my bike. Setting off at 4pm to meet Ben on the M54. See you all when were back. Im sure Ben will do his best, hope there is a big piss up sat/sun night Wayne.

the story behind the half link chain???? iv had 2 not snapped them? are the people snapping them just bashing them/trapping them on walls? and the pins are pushing out? iv got nothing but positive feedback for my half link chain. like someone else has said you can still get alot of acceleration out of 18-16 Wayne.
