tank_rider Posted March 14, 2007 Report Share Posted March 14, 2007 I've known it in its trials forum guise since 2001, think thats when a couple of smaller forums got merged together etc and dan and tom got together and started this up.

plainlazy84 Posted March 14, 2007 Report Share Posted March 14, 2007 From my memory Trials Forum started as Tenbytrials (Tomturds personal website/ forum) and then merged with a few other small forums and was renamed as it is today. Then there was the whole affiliate thing where Trials websites such as Bashguard.com would link to TF instead of having their own competing forums. That was 2001, and then eventually TF outgrew all its feeder websites, they all died off and it reigned supreme! Then there was the Trialskings forum of course which was pretty big for quite a while. As for the relic that is/ was Modandstock () that dated back to 1997 or 1998 ? I didnt start looking into Trials on the web until 1999 so I dont know if there were any other notable forums before that one. I dont think so though.A little history lesson there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave85 Posted March 15, 2007 Report Share Posted March 15, 2007 I do remember it was www.trialsforum.co.uk, then the server nicked the rights to that name and it was reborn with a hyphen in the name.
