    98 Techno Engine

  6. you wanna count yourselves lucky lads, when we got there all the car parks where full ! My feelings on re-flection where it's still un-believable entertainment for a relative small expense for the last 2 years i've took my dad, we didn't have as good a seat this year, and like previous people mentioned you couldn't see some parts of the sections, where we sat the loud speaker was good ,but the main scoreboard was a bit of a disaster, in the interval while dodging flying paper aeroplanes we both agreed that the 4 strokes had took the edge off the event,cos the riders on them clearly struggled with them, but as we walked out I asked him if he thought it was better or worse than last year, he replied the course was better this year,apart from the waterfall should have stayed, and the 4 strokes spoiled it, but how can anyone not enjoy and be amazed at what those lads can do he replied !!! says it all really, roll on sheffield 06 ! we'll be there.
  7. yeah I noticed that it lacked atmosphere this time, just can't see why people are raving on about 4 strokes though, and albert did look like he was enjoying himself on that sherco.
  8. I'll stick to my 2 stroke i think.
  9. If you see someone limping that'll be me can't wait
  10. something and nowt, jumped a small stream landed on the other bank, put my foot down, the boot stuck in the mud, lost my balance, and the rest is history, if I'd been doing something stupid I wouldnt have been as bothered as much, done the same thing hundreds of times, one of the guys did his in his car, turned up to a rugby match, went to get out of the car , got his foot stuck under the dash and fell out the car, they all thought he was p****d at first .
  11. After having knee surgery a month ago, I finally got a bit of a potter about on the old girl on sunday.And it got me wondering if any of the pro riders had ever bust anything ? anybody know
  12. bout time Doug moved to beta again, I did think Raga would have been more of a threat this time, but i'd rather it been fuji than anyone of the other foreign contingent .as for fuji, doug, raga , at montesa that just about wraps it up for another 10 yrs
  13. wiggle is pretty good, got all my stuff today the jacket looks pretty good,but time will tell wether it's as good as the rating on the website.
  14. don't forget to thank your mum if shes coughed up for 'em
  15. Thanks everyone thats replied It surely is the information super Highway, After a few of you recommended wiggle i logged on and ordered about
  16. I knew someone would come up with the goods, ta boys.
  17. a couple of the riders, on the trials tv dvd's have fancy ones, with a longer back (doug,cabestany) which i presume is to stop your ass getting soaked off the cagool, seemed like a good design , no one know who makes these? kinell, at least your missus knows where the washer is
  18. I've currently got no coat at the mo, and don't know wether to get a pacamac (cagool) or a proper jacket or both even, any thoughts on the best jacket to get ,are they all the same length etc, and where to get the cagool,jacket from. cheers mick.
  19. makes me wanna get my bike out right now but at 23:17 i doubt the neighbours would be keen, great article hrc

  23. I'm currently messing about packing my bike up with wood, when I work on it.Anyone use the bike stands that you can pick up for about
  24. anyone replaced the back mudguard lately, and how much was it ? Just noticed that its cracked from the back bolt across the top to the other bolt on the other side, I used zip ties on my old techno but it doesnt look like you can do that on the 04,although i could be mistaken,regards mick
