  1. http://www.trials-forum.co.uk/wiki/Servicing_profiles
  2. Mate told me he saw me in MBUK, probably in the background of a picture from the London ride, but I still want to see it! Mate left his copy at his work, and I can't afford to buy one... Anyone with one mind scanning it in please?
  3. Yeah, my mum has that problem with her Peugeot. Shame really...
  4. A pig flu. I thought it was impossible!
  5. £650. - Didn't expect it to be that much! Not sure if that includes orders over the phone either...
  6. It wouldn't be the same if I changed my username on here, I'm Dan6061 all over the web!
  7. I think mine's around 13 blue pallets, however high that is? Landing on concrete. I quite like big drops, even though they can ruin your backwheel...
  8. "2,276,450 views" There's never less than 5 people watching it whenever I watch it!
  9. Dremel would be the quickest way, but yeah, most people just use a file! My mate did about 8 holes on his rim and got sick of it... does take ages to do!
  10. Loved the hook 90.. or whatever you wanna call it! Great video, enjoyed it. So many pigeons...
  11. You mean it's actually real? Damn.
  12. Steady on! I'm up for this, if it's not too far away! Southern meet sounds good to me. Milton Keynes again please?

    Happy Birthday.

    How old is he? I don't even mean that as a joke, I've never really known!
  14. So no one will ever post a video?
  15. Great news Dave! Well done.
  16. WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT!? I really have no idea what to think... A part of that made me want to go riding, another part left me thinking 'Just give up..'
  17. Nisha our husky, doesn't like snow much...
  18. I have some of the Try-All clamps, so I no longer need the stupid plastic rings. Luckily my brake is nicely square on the rim all the time, I was expecting my mounts to not be square!
  19. I'd go with drilling the heads of the bolts off. Once they're off, the clamps/etc will come off, and the shock of the drill will loosen the threads off anyway, and then just grip the rest of the bolts with pliers (if needed) and undo them! The get some new bolts, and copper grease them, and don't do them up so tight! Magura's only need to be as tight as when the gaps between the clamps are closed, then maybe a tiny bit more. Also get could quality bolts and allen keys, make sure the allen key is right the way in the bolt head, and force it down as you undo it! Since I've done that, I haven't ruined any bolts.

    Jobs.

    I did look at apprenticeships, and considering doing one. Need to look into them more really! My last job (tyre fitting) was just sitting around in a warehouse full of tyres from 8:30 - 6pm Mon-Friday, and 9:30 - 6pm Saturdays. I hated it, didn't actually get any customers most days, it was so boring!

    Jobs.

    None, really. Got a B in an English GCSE re-take, and I think half a btec in first diploma media... other than that, I'm self-taught. Wouldn't mind working with cars really, but most places want experience or need college course certificates.. I don't want to go back to college, I just want to get a job and earn some money!

    Jobs.

    I've been out of work for... well, too long now. I now have my car back on the road, so I can finally go job hunting! Thing is, I have no idea what I want to do. I was a car tyre fitter before, which was alright, but the place I worked at was overpriced and never busy! The hours were terrible and non-negotiable, so I left, was sick of it. I don't have much experience in anything really, apart from tyre fitting, and I also worked in Halfords Bikehut part-time for 2 years. I want to do something practical, not sitting at a computer all day (Do that enough as it is!) I'm pretty stuck on ideas, so what do you do, and how did you get the job? Did you need any training/experience when you started? I'm going to have a drive around the local towns tomorrow and see if anything comes up...
