    I (for some stupid reason - must have been drunk at the time) volunteered, but only the Edinburgh -> venue part. After that, car dumped, beer opened

    I do hope HL's reading all this. She's navigating
  3. Keep an eye on upcoming events at http://www.hallamfmarena.co.uk/ Nowt on there yet though.
  4. Hahahahahahahahahaha! And we have witnesses!!!
  5. Here's an interesting point I found in the Press that I didn't know about: "Under new legislation passed by the Scottish Executive earlier this month, anyone who damages designated sites of special scientific interest with motorcycles or quad bikes can be fined up to
  6. Hehehe. I was close to doing similar purely to make me use Potatoshop. I installed PSP 8 and it ground my PC to a halt - AMD 1.7 with 786Mb RAM. I will get into Photoshop soon, but in the meantime I've downgraded back to PSP 7.
  7. There have certainly been many rumours abound lately. I heard plenty both before and during the SSDT. Not being a News of The World kind of site though, I'm not about to publish any because until they're confirmed one way or another they are just that - rumours.
  8. I'm doing very little - Jake is the one out there with a Typhoon pending!!!
  9. I found this tutorial on the subject a while back. Not had time to try it yet http://www.caughtintimephotography.com/BWwithColor.html
  10. First pictures of this bike in action now posted front page!
  11. They must be - they've certainly got you lot talking
  12. Quite possibly bandwidth issues. Interest was very high. I was originally linking to the pics on the US Montesa site, but copied them onto my server to save them bandwidth as I have a high bandwidth limit My understanding was that it was an official press release and on that basis I certainly wasn't going to refuse them. Montesa's PR people sent out one of the photos last night after the afternoon press release. Whether that was as a result of the information being "leaked" (if it even was) or not I don't know. I'm sure I'll find out though!
  13. 2 pictures on front page now
  14. Watch this space. Soon. REAL soon...
  15. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/in_depth/photo_...ery/3714003.stm Scroll through to No. 5
  16. One and the same. I'm still very much on a learning curve myself having made the dive into digital SLR last year (Canon 10D).
  17. Welcome! Good to have another Trials photographer on board. If you want to do photos for publicity then I'm happy to do so!
  18. It was the first time I'd ever been to the Pre-65 and that was the only thing that marred what was otherwise a great Trial. It's not such a problem at the Six-days as it's well publicised that spectators bikes are not permitted on any part of the course and on the whole, people respect that (there is the odd moron who thinks they know better i.e. Father & son, Ben Nevis, Saturday.) I could find nothing in the Pre-65 programme saying anything about spectators bikes staying off the course, although to me it would only be common sense. It's something that needs to be addressed though, not only from an insurance point of view, but for ensuring the continuation and success of both events.
  19. I was VERY disappointed in the Pre-65 in the respect of non-competitors abusing the course. The walk up to Pipeline on Friday I was getting out of the way of more spectators bikes than I was competitors. I don't mind giving way to Competitors or Officials, but I do object to stopping for someone who's too lazy to walk it. Same on Saturday up to Mamore. It was like the M25 up there. All these people are doing is giving the walkers and tree-huggers more ammo to kill Trials off and for only one reason - laziness.
  20. I can't repeat what these two lasses said when I said I was there from Hello! magazine, but if anybody knows them then please let them know they're now famous!

    He'd better watch himself. She's "well fit" and there's competition out there (She'll know what I mean!!)
  22. I'll check my photos. If I've got a pic with them in it I'll pass it on to Lochaber Club.

    If you turn up and don't look like your avatar I'm going to be sooo disappointed.

    I knew I'd forgotten something! Why doesn't Linda do things like this
  25. Wonder if that was the same father and his lad who were at Ben Nevis (illegally) on Saturday afternoon...
