Ben Swales Posted April 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2010 (edited) Just a little niggle that always catches my eye about the TribalZine site - there's always a space before punctuation which, as a grammar nazi, offends me deeply. It's just wrong I know... as a fellow grammar nazi (it's part of my job!) it gets to me too. It's because the site is programmed to display French text and all punctuation marks in French, except full stops and commas, have a space before them. I delete the spaces in all my translations, but the site keeps putting them back in! Telling Jérome and seeing if we can fix it for the English articles is on my to do list, but we're both ultra-busy at the moment, so it's pretty low priority at the minute; hope you don't mind putting up with it for a while longer!

Ben Swales Posted May 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2010 when is the tribalzine k-124 days video going to be out? .. p.s .. really enjoyed tyketrial @ penistone.. It's on it's way. The interview sections are nearly finished and Marcus is editing the rest as we speak. It's taking a while, but we hope it'll be worth the wait! Glad you enjoyed the trial, I thought it was class! We used a lot more of the venue than last time (it was too wet last season so some areas were deemed too dangerous) and there were some really interesting (read difficult!) sections! Looking forward to Addingham this week, will we see you there? Please translate the interview with Gilles. I'm really looking forward to understand it It's next on my list had to take a bit of a break from the translating over the last couple of weeks, I've just had too much on with work and whatnot, getting back on it now. Check back here tomorrow afternoon/evening, I hope to have it up by then Cheers for the interest - if there's anything not translated that people would like to see in English, just let me know! I try to get everything translated but sometmes there's just not enough hours in the day so some bits get missed out. I try and keep it pertinent to UK readers, but if I miss something that you'd like to see, just let me know! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben Swales Posted May 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2010 Yeah, there were some tricky sections on Sunday, but we had a good range of scores, with the winners in single figures and the people at the bottom of the table on 50+ so I think it was pitched just right. See you at Lee Mill next month then! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben Swales Posted May 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 14, 2010 (edited) There are some knocking about. I haven't seen that many pictures of it though. try doing a search on here. If you watch Stan and Mark's brakeless video, which was filmed at Lee Mill, it should give you an idea of what's there EDIT: Just found this thread with some pictures from ages ago. There's a lot more stuff there now, including a lot of man-made obstacles including cable reels and rails. Have a hunt about, I'm sure you'll find some pictures Edited May 14, 2010 by Ben Swales Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted May 14, 2010 Report Share Posted May 14, 2010 There's a fair amount of factual inaccuracy in the "Trial Mag put the latest 24"s through their paces" article. Biased in TMS's favour too - I wonder why that could be... EDIT: And the "Straight flush at Buthiers" thing, but that was primarily in what appeared to be a direct quote from them.

Ben Swales Posted May 24, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2010 Please translate the interview with Gilles. I'm really looking forward to understand it Here you go: An Interview with the Big Boss - A pretty in-depth interview with the French, European and World Champion in which he talks about his season so far and his goals for 2010, his new car and plans for the future. There are a few other translations that I've posted up but haven't got round to posting in here - have a look in the English section for latest updates. Any expected date/ rough kinda guess for the K-124 video? Really looking forward to it! Not yet I'm afraid... As far as I know it's *almost* ready, but there's still a fair bit of tweaking to do. It hasn't helped that the whole team are up to their necks in related and un-related projects. Plus Jérome got married this weekend (congratulations!) and will be on his honeymoon in a couple of weeks. I think it should be out pretty soon, but you'll just have to hang on for a bit longer I'm afraid! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
