I'm running daily updates on the front page for those interest in how things are taking shape.

You're James Dabill, aren't you?

Don't forget Brownie. He only has to finish 7th or above to take the World Junior Title on his home soil. Go for it big time for all our Brit lads. We've got some serious established talent and some great riders coming up through the ranks. Go for it for all of them but my appeal would be - please, lose the bloody airhorns. They're nowt but annoying and painful on the ears. Nobody else uses them apart from the Brits and they hurt like hell when someone lets one off close to you.

There is a British GP in 2008. Bangor, Northern Ireland. As for Dougie's plans, I don't know right now and even if I did - what happens on the road, stays on the road. Them's the rules

What? Going to work in the City with Isobel's sandwiches in his HRC carbon fibre briefcase?!!!! I think not. It's just a bit of marketing.

Doug was given a choice - the suit, bowler hat, umbrella and briefcase or naked holding a Union Jack in front of him. No surprises which he chose!

It's just too amusing

Sorry Perce, but I must now ban you for racism based on the Williamd theory of humour.

Would you, on the same foot, have said it was racist for the British people in WWII to refer to the American GI's as "Oversexed, overpaid and over here" and for them to retort "Undersexed, underpaid and under Eisenhower" I don't see this as any different. It's a bit of national banter. It happens and is not racist in any way. You've been sucked in by the PC society Bliar and his cronies have built for us.

I own this site and am a Scotsman myself (which is partly why these guys are doing this - they can't find a kangaroo to mount so they'll wind up the Jocks!). I firmly believe if you can't laugh at yourself then you have no right to laugh at anybody else. You appear to be one of the modern day "Pee Cee" brigade who can't take a bit of fun, like to scream "abuse" at every opportunity and are contributing to the downfall of our once great country where everybody must be politically correct 100% of the time. I don't hold with that. It's banter, end of story. I could delete it in a second - as could Slapshot, but we see it the way it's intended. Just a bit of fun and winding up on an internet forum that means nothing in real life. If you don't like it, don't read it. I am not about to let Trials Central fall victim to the PC brigade.

I'm getting a ton of emails from people asking if this is happening who have obviously missed there is a dedicated forum about it. Yes! It is happening and will be the same format as last year. The forum regarding it is only viewable by registered forum members and is not visible to guests. Wristbands for this are available, but only to already registered forum members (not just Trials Central Supporters). Guests - please do not register now with the sole purpose of gaining wristbands as you will not get them unless I know you personally.

Good luck to all taking part. It's on my list of "must go to" Trials year after year, but because it falls after three weekends of world rounds and just one week before Hawkstone I ain't going to make it.

Tickets are being sent out Monday 16/07/07 as originally stated

It's official - Pat, Ross, David Millan Also British 1-2-3 in Junior Cup - Wigg, Brown, Haslam Championship was Raga, Bou, Cabestany

Tried to send them Hi-Res and Outlook barfed. Let's see if Editorboy responds to my email offering free pics

Arghhh - you shouldn't say that till the menus work properly! They don't work in IE7 for anybody trying. I'm trying to find one that fixes it, but this has taken priority.

did you mention he'd headlined on the numero uno English speaking Trials site?

Now looks like serious fun!

Just got the latest edition of SportMoto. That's a cracking photo of Dibs on the cover

2008 STi spotted at The Ring

Can we add Man 2 Man Meets Man Parish or perhaps The London Boys?

John Smeaton, the baggage handler who tackled the fools and who appeared on TV has become a cult hero here in Scotland. A website has even been set up for him www.johnsmeaton.com with a view to setting up a fund to buy him 1000 pints. That target has now been passed. Only the Scots will understand this, but it is sheer class

Your Soft Cell and Bronski Beat collections are safe along with your pride and joy, the very rare 12" Newcastle Brown remix of Gazza doing Fog On The Tyne

Picked up on this topic in the Scooby Drivers forums Clicky linky

It might have sunk in now, but I think both the video and the brief interview show that at the time he was just so overwhelmed he wasn't 100% with it! Promised to hook up with him and Noel again in Poland so we'll get an update next weekend.
