    Thanks for all the replies. I’m in Hilton.

    Just been up to Black rocks on the Demo for a mess around and buggered my foot up in about 10 seconds of going downhill from the top.

    Smacked into a rock with my foot. My bog toe is totally numb and all bloody. Dam you specialized and your low Bottom brackets!!

    Walking’s been fun since….

    Cheers for the Cannock link above, just down the road. 🙂

    Would it be better to go to one on my Demo 8 or Ragley Marley HT?

    Or take both and swap between them? Going round a pump track on a 200mm bike would be ridiculous…

    Or buy yourself a Kinect sensor and set up your own home mo-cap system.

    I’ve just done it for Facial animation 🙂

    I’m an animator.

    Here’s my WIP broken website

    http://fullfaceanimation.com//default.htm

    You could grab the 30 trial version of Maya and master that in a month…

    or try Flash for 2d animation.

    It really all depends on what you want to animate. Characters or random things?

    I ordered some Boxxers form them but when delivered a pair of Lyriks arrived.

    To be fair the box did say Boxxer on the small sticky label.

    I rang them and they said a courier would come the next day to collect them and they’d have to order in some Boxxers as they were now out of stock,

    No courier turned up the next day. I ended up thinking the Lyriks were going to get lost in post so drove up to Wigan to drop them off and was after a refund to drive up to Merlin to buy Boxxers from there.

    When I got to Wigan, they had some Boxxers in so he gave me them.

    The guy also re-dished my back wheel for free to fit my Demo 8. 🙂

    Sort of good/bad experience but I’d say better than bad…

    All other stuff ordered in the past has been fine.

    Do the forks not come with the correct amount of oil new? (I’ve only had them a few months and ridden about 4 times)

    Would 50 – 60 psi be better?

    Yep Ibex dh tyres.

    I’m running between 35 – 40 psi

    Using some Specialized wheels off an Sx trail. Massive wide red rims. 🙂

    Yep, I pinch flatted the front twice with dual ply tyres.

    I managed to pinch flat both tyres on one run. 🙂

    Maybe tubeless is the way to go?

    Yep, RC Boxxers

    Medium spring,
    I’m 12.5 stone
    Onza ibex 2.4 tyre about 35 psi
    Not done any fiddling with the forks (they’re brand new)

    I’ll measure 200mm up the stanchion tonight. good/obvious idea! 🙂

    Just looking for some fork tuning onfo on the net.

    Weirdly when I’m pinch flatting, It’s in weird places where I wouldn’t expect it to happen.

    22 april is when the ballot opens.

    I got a place 1st time in 2001 (not knowing how hard it was to get one. Then didn’t run it)

    got a place last year through Mountain Rescue. Had to defer.

    ran it last Sunday. Blimmin’ ace experience.

    doing the Snowdonia marathon in October and also going to try for a ballot place in London next year to try and beat my slow 4hr 55

    yep, they stick to your head like a limpet!

    I originally bought mine because I was always knocking my old glasses off while bouldering.

    Oakley’s are soo much better.

    Film adverts that say “comingmarch10th” in one long quick sentence.

    It should be “coming out on the 10th of March”

    And it’s Series, not season

    Right then, I’m off my phone and on the laptop.

    I had a 2.0 turbo Forester. The boot size was pretty rubbish for the size of the car. I had a legacy outback before that which had a MASSIVE boot.

    The MPG comment was that 2.0 Forester/Legacy’s have pretty bad MPG compared to the performance. Which is why I went for a Turbo. About the same out of a tank but goes like stink when needed.

    Although weirdly after all the above the Forester was the car I regret selling the most… 🙁

    I was looking at them recently but the 2.0T’s are getting too old now and are all pretty much over 100K miles.

    Bought myself a Turbo’d Octavia Estate instead 🙂

    Maybe try looking at Octavia Scouts?

    Rubbish boot size in foresters.

    2.0 engines aren’t worth the low performance compared to cost of fuel.
