Welcome to Trials Central. Just recently there has been discussion on these very forums about practice areas. Because of the tree-huggers and other bodies dead set on killing any form of off-road motorsport we have agreed to discourage talk in public about practice areas as the info can be abused. Your best bet is to join a Club and I'm sure someone more knowledgable than me on what's available in your locality will be along to advise

Got your PM on this. I'll look into it.

No. I'm led to believe Krash has his own reputation.

Could you translate that into something meaningful or have you just surfaced after 3 months to have a dig?

I don't and have never used it as I don't trust it, but there are many fans of EBay on here so read on... Challenging an EBay Scammer Man admits hacking 90 EBay accounts

It's not dead. It's pining for the Fjords.

Walk? Tha were lucky. Were had to crawl 15 mile naked over t'broken glass just for t'pleasure of working down't pit for 26 hours every day.

The developers are volunteers. Can't sack someone who don't get paid.

I've given up trying to maintain any semblence of order in these here parts. Anarchy rules!

I checked today and the chat system hasn't yet been updated to work with this version of the forums. I'll keep an eye on it.

As round two of what is shaping up to be a red-hot MotoGP World Championship hits Jerez in southern Spain this weekend, a 250,000 crowd is expected. This horde will largely be there to will on Dani Pedrosa (Repsol Honda RC212V), the main Spanish hope for the 2007 World Championship. Dani scored a third place in the opening race in Qatar and now that the series has returned to Europe, he will be looking for nothing less than a win at his

He is. If you look at the front page article I posted tonight he's on a Mont.

For some reason the Trials Central server has taken to rebooting itself at random over the past few days. When the server reboots the bulk of the processes restart, but it is set up so that it does not come back online fully in that the processes that control the backend databases do not automatically start. That is deliberate and intended. It's something I may have to look at again though if this continues. As far as the chat goes, every time an upgrade is done to the forums it needs to be re-installed as it is a modification to the default software. I will get round to reinstalling it at some point.

Okay, even if it is still open and available, now is not the time for complacency. You can't just sit back and think all is fine and will be from now on. There will no doubt be some other individual or group come along probably sooner rather than later and want to shut it down. I still think the tree thing is a good idea. Many motoring groups and car clubs are now looking at this purely in terms of carbon off-setting.

So how should I handle the topics on here saying "Where can I find somewhere to practice in xxxxxxx?" Type a reply saying in order to protect practice areas we don't discuss these things openly on this site, close the topic and allow people to PM them if they want? I'm happy to do that if that's what people want.

For some reason the server rebooted itself twice. Dunno why. I'm away this weekend hence the length of time it was offline for.

Get many Canucks in Mills & Boon books then?

Western Isles does it for me. A lass from Harris or Lewis - that sorta region

Is that it? I thought he'd murdered somebody or something. Go find me a top rider who doesn't try it on with Observers

Dunno about that. Had contact today from the guys who run Alister McRae's website wanting to use my vids on it

Scottish Scoobies. Talked to him in the past. He did say he had a partner in the photo thing who was more into Trials than he was. Small world, innit?

Now where have I seen that watermark before??? I believe Colin is overseas I'd have gone to this if Crosser had reminded me like i told him to

The package used on TC was expensive. AtomAnt could tell you exactly how much, but I know it wasn't cheap. Google for "javascript menus"
