If you've made videos previously, chances are you'll have tmpgenc on your pc. It's used to compress vids etc. However, it can be used (without problem) to export the sound only. ^_^ Very simple to use. Head on over to www.tmpgenc.net Mike. :-

Amist all your frantic typing, you evidently forgot the lifelong skill of reading. (Y)

After having a go on Ali C's one a while ago, shortly after, I bought one too. It's really amazing how much force it can put through your arm, and is apparently really good for ligament and muscle repair. My record's in the mid 11000's. TRA had a go on mine at koxx days, and just got like 14000. (Y) Definitely buy one if you can be bothered. (Y) Mike.

The main thing I suffer from is itchy eyes, it becomes unbearable at points, and I just look like I've smoked a load of weed. (Y) I take whatever medicine we happen to have, it's benadryl or something at the moment, seems to be ok. (Y) Local honey helps, as it helps build up immunities to the pollen, and also rubbing a bit of vaseline on the bottom/inside of your nose really helps too, as the pollen just sticks to it. Mike. :P

"Sunny" was not the word. Mind meltingly hot is the words... :shifty: Yeah, urrm, cheers to everyone who went :shifty: , had a good sesh anywho, got very sweaty, and covered in crap! Ah well. Mike. :)

Very short notice, but me and Matt Burrows will be riding braken again later today, we arrive at whatstandwell at 12:13. :- If anyone else fancies coming, then do. Give me a ring if you really need. 07870191382. Mike.

I think only two of those cameras are Mini DV, which is what you undoubtabley want. Hi8, and digital8 are crap, enough said. :- For the price you're looking at, I'd definately get the sony I linked you to earlier. It's definately worth the extra few quid. Remember you'll need some Mini DV tapes, and probably a carrying bag of some sort. (I just used jiffy bags for my old samsung. :"> So, yeah. That sony. :lol:

Urrr JJ, you're basing that on what? Your "stEeL iZ Reel!!!11" Leeson? :'( I doubt very much that any of the components of the frame are fully catalogue chosen (bar dropouts, brake mounts and headtube etc), as it's obviously had some care put into design. Anyway, there is another topic, as Sam posted originally...

Woo, I'm famous! :"> :( I'm sure you've all seen the one hander on the 10ft high up pipe at the bike show, shortly followed by gap, gap, crash. :'( Good fun though! Yeah, the guys up there ^^ Have got it pretty much nailed, just find the balance point on your backwheel, and try and be able to balance without hopping like mad, then when you're balanced turn the bars clockwise (left hand up) slightly, release your front brake, and let your leg rest on the top/down/head tube. This last point is optional, although it does help, imo, it doesn't look as good. Just release your hand when you're balanced, blow a kiss to the crowds, wave, spin your front wheel, check the time :lol:" , and then just grab the bars. It just takes practice, balance, and a little Fatmike in all of us. Haha. Good luck.

As well as me, Steve-a, Matt Burrows, and maybe some other worcester loosers. :'(

You think that's old school?! Check This out. I guarantee you'll love it. :- Mike.

Urr yeah. :- "NOTE: The "pitbull" part of the sticker will not be available untill 28th March. Only the other stickers will be sent out untill the "pitbull" stickers arrive, which will then be sent out when they arrive" Some nice updatage there. You could always buy some and get a scanner and scan them in? Or get phil/adam/dave to if they're kind enough. ;) And then edit and print them as you wish. Mike.

News headline! (Y) "Pete Wright sues BT bike for them breaching copyright issues over the hole in bb shell" :- I can see it happening. What's the head angle on that beast? I couldn't see it on the site, there was more, far useful information on paint saving inventions. It seems very long. Looks nice, obviously we'll have to wait and see untill people've tried them.

Is there anything glaringly wrong with one of these? They seem perfect for the price! http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...mMakeTrack=true Mike. :)

+ DVD cameras are shit anyway. :)

This is the one you want, it's pretty cheap, good quality, touch screen, small, easy to use, I'm sure you could find loads of other reviews of it on the net. It's what I've just got in the post today. :( I bought it from Amazon, using the link there ^^ Definately stick with sony, as the Honda advert says "Isn't it nice when things just, work?", which is what Sony camcorders do. It sounds like you'll need to buy and install a firewire card, which will allow you to capture the footage onto pc (the sony will do USB aswell, but it's crap), pick one up from ebay or ebuyer for not very expensive. The cable will usually come with it, and they're all the same. Think thats everything. :) Buy the sony. :) Mike.

Yeah man, water's the best. I'll usually drink about 5 or 6 litres a day. More if i've been riding. Piss like a horse though, but it's worth it. And unfortunately bottled "Malvern" water doesn't even come from Malvern. :( The stuff from the springs tastes so much better though. Milk, that's another story all together. ^_^

I call it: "Boredom" Aaand: Mike. :(
