    Emo/screamo

    This is rapifly turning into a 'name as many really underground bands as possible in order to score EMO points' thread... Who is to say whats Emo and whats Screamo? All music is Emo. Some songs have screaming in them.
  4. Trials-Forum weighing scales by the sounds of it :mellow:

    Energy

    Correct. You don't feel thirsty until you're 2% dehydrated, and at 2% dehydration, your exercise capability has dropped by 10%. Drink stuff thats tasty too, not plain water. Plain water makes you piss more, thus dehydrating you further, and doesn't make you wanna drink it. Aim for approx 100ml/10 mins. However its person-specific. You also wanna try and get about 40-60g* of simple carbohydrates (ie. sugar) into you per hour, plus minerals (Na+, electrolytes). Jaffa cakes are actually pretty good, and easy to eat/store. *Thats for professional football - probably lower for trials. That's during exercise anyway... Prior to riding, you wanna keep your glycogen store high - google that :mellow:
  6. Theres more than one 'right' envelope though...
  7. Hmm, doesn't look like it worked that great. I think the name list was a bit small to see. Not sure why the city and envelopes haven't worked though...
  8. :mellow: Small rides to actually ride, large rides for socialising.

    Just trying to find an essay I did, it'll cover some of it, but it's not trials-specific...
  10. Claire. Helsinki. 7. That was errr... random.

    It's far more complex than what you ate for your last meal really... But I can;t be arsed to explain now, sorry.

    Rear Ends

    Yeah, but theyre totally different tubes. Same for the seat stays. The only common parts between the Pure and Boa are head tube, yoke, and dropouts.

    Correct! £30 given to the woman. Keeps £2 herself. Gives £1 back to each of three men. Whats 1 + 1 + 1 + 2? Yes, five. £5 (whats been taken by the four people) plus £25 (gone in the till) = £30 (what they started with) Haha, I've just repeated what Mike said... sorry dude (Y)
  17. But... the impression of being smoother doesn't mean you get less dabs?
  18. The groove in the sidewall. The wide rim with a wear line in it. The old Viz rim was the same as those 2 rims you just mentioned.
  19. All this over a rim (Y) The Hog is a Try-All, but with eyelets. The old Viz... I dunno what that was, probably the same thing. The new Viz does appear to be different though, with that brake track, and 1mm less wide.
  20. Onza Ronnie? Its got the depth where you need it too, at the sidewall.
  21. Nah, 4 bolt is all the same. (Apart from XTR) Compact and Standard only applies to 5 arm (Y)
  22. Better than most free email thingies though? I mean, university email is obviously more, but its not free and stuff. Meh, whatever. Gmail is good.
  23. He's a lot smaller than he used to be... But anyway, trying to keep the off-topicness down... (Y)
