Gave to? You went and planted billions of gallons of oil under their soil? Hmmmm....me thinks not!

Nah - just invade a country that has plenty Joking aside, I saw a website the other day (which I can't remember now) that reckons oil production peaked in 2001 and we're now on a downhill slippery slope. I didn't believe the 2001 thing, but they talked a lot of sense about a world post-oil.

Which Trial?

One word - taxation. Few years ago here, the tuckers got together and blockaded the refineries and distribution depots in protest. Almost brought the country to it's knees. Petrol stations were either sold out or those that had fuel had queues for miles.

All sorted out and photos added - you were almost there, The images were uploaded - you just needed to select the set of images from the drop down list and put in the tags. Thanks to Matt & Craig for the results, report & photos.

It sounds to me like one of those daft "forward this to everyone in your address book" emails that 90% of people will delete purely because they're sick of "forward this to everyone in your address book" emails. However, back to the fuel - I paid 79.7p per litre for petrol today. That's $1.48 at todays rates. 1 litre = 0.26 US gallon. Lets call it 0.25 for ease of conversion. 2 litre = 0.5 US Gallon. 4 litre = 1.0 US Gallon Which means my US Gallon of petrol today cost me $5.92 I really don't think you guys have anything to complain about! (UK - A US Gallon is only 0.82 of our Gallon)

At least, according to that article, the Police seem to take a good stance: "Sergeant Steve Breen of North Yorkshire Police says, "We are not opposed to the lawful and responsible use of off-road vehicles. But action is now being taken against those who use their vehicles in an antisocial or careless manner, or in places where vehicles are not permitted."

I was going to continue the topic, but you never know who's reading these subjects and I don't want to give the tree-huggers anything they can latch on to as ammo...

And posted my views. Problem is the BBC are very selective on what they publish. I'm surprised at the lack of coverage on other websites. I know Bradford have taken it on board and possibly some other Club sites, but... Sandifords - nothing Scorpa UK - nothing Gas Gas UK - nothing These are the folk who make their living from the sport. They should be first on the bandwagon!

I've brought the subject back to top of the front news page.

Should bleedin well hope so too!

I think North Lanarkshire is the closest. Big John may say otherwise...

It's a pinned thread - it'll always be at the top till I unpin it!

I'll just sit and wait for the backlash from the Brits on this one!

No speed cameras on the M6 other than temporary ones through roadworks. No cameras on the M74 (but watch out for blue unnmarked BMW's!), none on the M80/A80, none on the M9. Once you come off motorway though they do tend to have camera vans in lay-bys. Particularly at weekends. It's a popular route with the ton-up bikers. No fixed cameras though.

Top bloke! Region 1 or 2?

I've added it to the article page - looks good! I've also the prizes up for grabs so far. Clicky here

http://www.thisisnorthscotland.co.uk/displ...ntentPK=8944012 This is pretty good considering the battles I used to have with the P&J to get them to report anything. Shame they've got the lovely Linda down as German though.

Quite how you can miss the bleeding huge banner on the front page I don't know, but... http://www.trialscentral.com/static/trial.htm

Damned good photo. Who took it?

Freixa has withdrawn, as has Bilbao.

website AT trialscentral.com Stuart means can they use it on the Bradford website - www.bradfordtrials.co.uk

Yup looks great - Can you send me the original? I'm back home on whizzy broadband.

Yes please, but can you hold off sending until tomorrow evening. I'm at my folks on a very slow dial-up connection.

One thing - it's actually 29th & 30th May. Barbecue Sat 29th, Trial Sun 30th.
