I've tried TC using Atomic and I still get the lame mobile version. Please can you let us have the choice of accessing the forums properly on an iPhone? Thanks!

I liked the look of these, but wasn't prepared to fork out

At the moment the TC forums use the "lo-fi" skin for iPhones. It's very basic, and unlike some other sites there doesn't seem to be the option to switch to the full version. Please can we have the option to view the full version of the forums on an iPhone? Or just ditch the lo-fi version? Thanks!

I've done a couple and they're great fun. There can be quite a bit of navigation to do, and my top tip is to start off by finding someone who knows the ropes and follow them. Takes the pressure off a bit!

I know they lost their planning application, but not sure if there's any light at the end of the tunnel.

Oh well, looks like a dab of superglue has sorted it for now!

I've broken the plastic "sight glass" on the front brake master cylinder of my 2003 Rev 3 (it's an AJP master cylinder, I don't know if it's different on other years). I called Lampkins, but apparently this critical little bit of plastic isn't available as a spare so I either try to bodge it with some glue or buy a new master cylinder which doesn't seem like a good use of

As far as I'm concerened Ebay is no worse than any other way of buying or selling second hand stuff, and due to its reach it's often better. There's plenty of scope to get burnt, but a little common sense goes a long way - I've bought and sold cars and bikes on Ebay, some of them unseen, with no problems at all. Since they changed the feedback rules for buyers, when I am selling I would now prefer to end the auction early with a committed buyer rather than run the risk of a dreamer or idiot making the highest bid.

After you've fived the first few, word will get around quite quickly!

I posted a message to the thread about the trials practice area at Tonymoto, but the whole thread seems to have disappeared today. Is this more database problems, or should I be looking for black helicopters? Does anyone know what the latest situation is with Tonymoto? Yoyo - your PM box is full . . .

I've never had much luck with the digital gauges. I tried a couple then gave up and got a proper one from Motomerlin.

How about this for the mother of all drop offs? Robbie Maddison in Vegas: Had a quick search, and don't think it's already been posted here . . .

I take 13/14s and the only trials boots that I could find were Gaernes. They were a bit pricey, but I'm very happy with them.

I have Tech 3s and they're excellent value. I wear them for trail riding and Hare & Hounds but I woudn't want to wear them for trials riding - they're too stiff, don't give enough feel and aren't much cop for walking sections. For trials and LDTs I wear my Gaernes.

Check this out! http://www.pistonheads.tv/clip1471 I was there the day that he did this, but didn't catch the action. The stuff in that house is worth squillions - I don't even feel particularly comfortable just walking through the place, let alone riding . . .

I entered my first LDT last weekend and had a fantastic time! That's not me by the way. I was having a lie down by the time I got to that bit of the section. More pictures and a bit of blathering here I'm really surprised that there isn't more discussion about LDTs here. I'm definitely planning to do some more - these are currently in my diary: 20 July - Timber Woods LDT - Sidcup, Kent 21 September - OK Supreme LDT - Stratford 5 October - Witley LDT - Hampshire Anyone else?

After looking at various options I ended up buying a very nice six seat LWB T4. Way cheaper than a decent Vito or a T5, and (fingers crossed!) less to go wrong. Wasn't really planning on a LWB, but it does mean I can easily get a couple of bikes in without messing about with the back seats. It's a bit of a squeeze in some car parks, but doesn't seem too bad so far.

...and me!

That seems to fit with what I've heard from other people too. Both the Vito and T5 post ~2005 seem to be good. I don't want to spend that much so a T4 is looking favourite at the moment.

Do you ride with a finger covering each lever all the time? Or only when you actually need to? I reckon that ideally you'd have them covered all the time so your not changing grip. What's best?

Bognor www.brdmcc.org or Worthing www.worthingtrialsclub.com are friendly clubs and not too far from Southampton (possibly your closest) Have fun!

I'm thinking of getting a van, but not sure what to go for. I want six seats (two rows of three), but don't want anything massive. A Vito Dualiner looks good (and has passenger doors on both sides which is a bonus) or a Transporter Kombi - both SWB. Any views on either of these? Or a better alternative? Ta!

I think I've found an even easier method:- put the bike in first gear - keep the clutch in and rock the bike until it unsticks - still keep the clutch in and start the bike in gear - ride off as normal If the clutch refuses to unstick when you rock the bike then this isn't going to work, but it's been good for me so far. No messing about, nocrashing of gears.

Fancy going a bit faster? I know we've got quite a few people around the southeast, so I thought this might be of interest to one or two . . . I was talking to Ady Smith of Ady Smith KTM off-road schools fame today, about the possibility of organising a two day enduro school at their Eastbourne site in January or February next year. This would be a step up from the more common "try out" or "experience" days, with the emphasis on improving skills rather than just "having a go". Previous off road experience isn't esential, but you'll need generally confident bike skills. The enduro schools are normally held in Rugeley, Staffs but Ady is happy to run one dahn saaf if there's enough interest. We would need 7 - 10 people for this to happen. At just
