    I hate that guy Inte, him and Neduro, hate 'em all. S'not fair, I tell you, not fair AT ALL.

    Great story, as are all of his and he's a cracking photographer - I've got his shot of Jimmy Lewis on the back wheel of the HP2 as my wallpaper!

    Still, s'not fair!

    Cheers

    That's an incredible story. In places those routes look challenging for a trials bike, but full-size adventure bikes with tents? Impressive... and mad as a lemming!!!

    Probably a real dim question
    but how do you get a moving pic like this or is it a real slow movie
    They call him "Ze Quiet one"
    I listen to what the rice crispies tell me to do

    Not dim at all mate.

    It's a gif type file, and gifs are made up of multiple images, so it's possible to make a mini-film using multiple images, all put together in a gif file

    Some cameras have a special setting that takes four or five pictures in quick succession. You've probably seen the effect on telly, usually accompanied by a whirring "click-aoww, click-aoww, click-aoww" sound.

    My own digital camera takes about 20 seconds to become ready after taking one shot! I was recently shooting pics of DaveS off-road and thought I'd take one of him in the distance before the real action shot. The camera took so long to get ready for the main shot he'd already cleared the obstacle!
