surely u can work that one out.

why does it have to include the word trials?

why not a word that people associate with trails, and tubes too.

not just trials tube.

thats about the most unimaginative wording ever

trials-forum is correct in my head because it's possessive. The forum of trials mountain biking. But then, possessive requires an apostrophe in there somewhere, i think. As such, trial-forum is merely bad english. It being a .co.uk domain, i would expect good grammatical english in the name. Trials as a title of the sport is a bit of a dodge area because it can be viewed as an abbreviation of "Trials Mountain Biking" but as a word it's plural... see the problem?. I say stick with trials.... what's the worst that can happen?

I was never intending on changing anything, just wondered what peoples opinions were.

The only reason biketrialuk sounds right is becuase an 's' never sounds right when a vowel comes right after it.

Trials-ice / trial-ice.

Seing as though it's trialstube and trialsforum, it's ok.
