Just for reference, there's a guide on how to post photos here

I was about to say the same thing. Excellent topic and exactly what these forums are for . Should prove very helpful to users looking for new boots (if they've got the savvy to use search and not just post "Which boots are best"

I'm fighting with mailshot to TC Supporters right now. It's not playing ball, but expect something soon

S'okay then. As long as you don't intend using your research to enter the Trials "bling" market

Why? Sounds like market research to me.

Search is your friend too

Been discussed several times. Search is your friend

Issues? Nah, none. Just some gentle Scots mickey taking. I'm only here for the banter

Surprised nobody with an iGay and Shazam music recognition (there's an app for that) hasn't jumped in with the full list. Perhaps the iGay users are too ashamed to admit their homo tendencies I can't believe thedbf is using that as I'm firstly doubtful the iGay has reached Dundee yet and secondly suspect if it had, it would have been ripped off him and sold to fund a drug habit

I'd suggest someone is pulling your chain. Ask for the source.

First time I've ever heard an Aberdonian call a Dundonian tight! You have to understand he has his methadone to pay for!

Went to a charity pub quiz last night. One of the questions was: What three J's is Dundee famous for? Apparently the correct answer is Jute, Jam and Journalism but surely our answer of Junkies, Jakies and Jezebels is equally correct?

After several hundred hours worth of work, I am delighted to announce that the sadly-neglected sister site to Trials Central has had a complete and total makeover and am extremely pleased to launch an all-new TRIALSPHOTOS.COM TRIALSPHOTOS.COM was launched in 2005 and, whilst the software we used was sufficient, things have moved on a great deal since that time. The site had a bad habit of not letting us know when orders for photo prints had been placed, leading to delays and problems in fulfilling orders. The all-new TRIALSPHOTOS.COM isn't an upgrade to the old site, but a totally new website with loads of new features. Not only does it make it easier for you to browse and search photos, but you can also track your orders simply and easily online. As you can imagine, adding thousands of photos and correctly identifying them all and ensuring they are all searchable by rider name and location is a mammoth task. So far I've added over 3000 SSDT photos from 2008 right up to this year's SSDT. I will be adding more photos from both the SSDT in previous years and also other events, but it's a lengthy (and very tedious!) process. Over and above the investment in the all-new TRIALSPHOTOS.COM I've also invested in updated printing technology ensuring maximum possible quality from our digital prints. To mark the re-launch of TRIALSPHOTOS.COM there is FREE delivery on all orders over

I wouldn't be making statements like that. You'll have half of Yorkshire travelling down if they think there's free beer!

Thanks for the story Craig. I've headlined it as the previous headline was also about Pat. It's a real shame the way things have worked out, but he's totally right. If he's not enjoying it then why should he do it? The travel is bad enough for me who is mostly only going from the UK to mainland Europe without the transatlantic stuff, jetlag and the cultural changes which it was obvious he struggled with. Fair play to the lad for being up-front and honest about it.

My fault. Got side-tracked by some small Trials event that was going on up in Fort William According to the entry, the winner drawn was an Oliver Roberts, BUT we later found out (too late to withdraw the prize) that was the name of the BROTHER of the entrant and he'd used his brother's name to sneak multiple entries in. Not too chuffed about that, but I now know who he is and the pseudonyms he uses so any future entries to any other competitions will be deleted. The answers were: (1) GASGAS RAGA 2008 (2) SHERCO CABESTANY 2007 (3) BETA EVO 4T 2009 (4) FANTIC 240 1984 (5) MONTESA 4RT 2009 (6) SHERCO ST 2010 (7) GASGAS RAGA 2009 (8) OSET SPIDER 36V 2009 (9) SHERCO ST320 4T 2009 Note, if you disagree with any of the answers, take it up with Nige at Trials UK - he set the questions!

I ran a Bach conversion on my photos and they all turned out like this

What a knob

My fault. Created PDF from active sheet, not entire workbook. now sorted.

Totally irrelevant to Trials bikes, but brings to mind a story when I was a kid. Would only have been about 11 or 12 at the time. Friend and I got hold of an old lawnmower engine and decided we'd build a go-Kart. His neighbour was a blacksmith so he built the frame complete with wheels, steering etc, but we couldn't get the bloody engine to start. Decided, having seen my Dad "bump-start" his car that the best idea was for my mate to sit on the go-Kart steering it, I'd push it as fast as I could and at the same time pull the starter rope to "bump start" it. Sooo... I'm pushing this thing as fast as I possibly can across the farmyard with my mate comfortably sat in it doing the steering. I yank the starter rope whilst still pushing as fast as a kid can push, not even realising the dangers of having my "pushing hand" on top of the exposed spark plug.... I went about 20 feet in the backward direction whilst he's insulting me as to why I gave up trying to "bump start" our pride and joy. Project was abandoned shortly after Funny looking back, but it hurt like hell at the time.

On front page now. Clickety linky. Actually got them on Monday, but been on boring corporate training all week Sawree...

What's a WUMMER?
