    So sorry for your loss, Gerb. I'm with you pal, I lost my mum and my uncle in this past month. Heartbroken, dude.

    I've been finding solace in the Wastelands, and listening to Potato 5 (see below).Helps to take my mind off things.

    Thanks to Boss for being there, and for somehow managing to convince me to give F76 another try. So glad he did!

    Hope everyone is safe, and trying to get by in these testing times.

    Love you all.

    Rude x

    dealing every day with my sweet sisters passing ( Love you Kath 😇 ❤ )

    ❤ ♡ ☆ ♡ ☆ ♡ ☆ ♡ ☆ ❤ ☆ ♡ ☆ ♡ ☆ ♡ ☆ ♡ ❤


    Well I was going to talk about next month and our anniversary activities that

    I have planed.... I really hope most of us can find the time at least once a

    week to party up and celebrate 8 wonderful years of friendship & Trialing !

    I know we still have Gerbs ,Roy, booped &a few others Trialing away but most

    of us have lost abit of the TRIALS/ OTHG DRIVE FOR THE GAME !


    Well please take the weekend & think of anything we can do for our month

    long 8th anniversary celebration ! The club house will be open all weekend

    so please drop in..... it's been quite in the OTHG XBOX CLUB HOUSE this year

    for many sad reasons ( God bless all the loved ones lost this year )

    ......also the game/series has run its course.... no major rant or ramble today

    but trust me one is coming !


    Please drop in so we can talk as bout next & if anyone wants a friend to Trial

    with please grab me off any game I'm playing.... & I'd be happy to do so and

    run some tracks ✌😎


    I started a thread a month or so ago on the Rising Track Central builders

    menu like I do every year looking for tracks for our anniversary.... it's pretty

    thin right now but I will message our building friends and see if they can post

    or re-post a classic from a past anniversary..... & OTHG builders if you have

    time please think about a quick short speedrunner or anything you have in

    mind .... THANK YOU !




    Time heals...... its still painfull & when we lose someone special it's rough

    but we still have our beautiful memories of them in our heart ! Love you all

    - Bossman ❤

    Anniversary #8 coming soon.... in June !

    Hi OTHG'STERS, ( If anyone is still around 😉 )

    It's been a very slow spring for the oldest gang on Trials,we are all off doing our

    own thing..... I for one have set a bad example these last few months & I'm

    truly sorry 😔 So now some good news we do have a few builders working on

    some Anniversary tracks for us for our month long party next month ☺


    I plan on dropping in 2 or 3 times a week for a few hours if anyone wants to

    party up & blast down the new builds,even go back & run some tracks from

    Anniversaries past 😎 ..& also some of our favorite multi bike 1 Track builds ☺



    So pass the word and be ready for a month long 8th anniversary celebration 😉

    I hope I can get back some of my speed-running drive that I once loved !


    Now this weekend Rude & I want to invite the gang for some free Fallout 76

    or if you do have the game now is the time to get back in it with a double XP

    weekend ! Wastelanders has turned out great and definitely feels like a real

    Fallout game now.... so jump in for a bit and we can run around the wastelands

    killing stuff before it kills / or eats us 😃😃😁😀😄


    Well have a great weekend gang and please get ready for next month .........

    8 wonderful years is a big deal for all of us so THANK-YOU ALL ! 😎


    The OTHG club house is open drop in and visit some old & older friends 😆


    Keep healthy & safe everyone.....💙 💚 💛 💜 💖 🌎 💖 💙 💚 💛 💜 ✌😎

    Hello.
    Thought I'd drop in and say hi and see what this over the hill gang is all about.
    Not sure really what to expect in here and didn't go back and read the previous 473 pages so maybe y'all can fill me in a bit.
    I definitely fit the age group (last year I qualified for the senior discount at the local grocery store)
    I've only played and been in two games & game communities online so I'm really not all that familiar with many of the terms and such and don't really know all that much about the social media stuff.
    I've never even tweeted or used snapchat, facebook or any of those kind of things other than joining twitch to watch and learn from some of the Trials Gods. I've never even owned one of those so called smart phones. Just a simple guy with a simple life.
    Funny, like in Trials, once you get over that hill, time seems to pick up speed.
    I've been playing Trials for about 6 months now and love building with it. Been working on something for about a month now that sort of fits the "older" crowd theme a bit and look forward to sharing it in a couple more weeks.

    Hi OTHG'STERS,

    Our 8th anniversary is coming up fast !

    Just think back in 2012 when I was looking for a few Trialing friends to run

    some weekly HLCS it would turn into this ! It's been a wild & crazy ride & I've

    made so many good friends & some I've proud to call best friends ( brothers )

    It's been a tough year with all that's going on in the world but for that reason

    alone let's make next month the best Anniversary yet ( - signed : Boss ✌&#128526


    Hey MadMotoMan ( BTW: Awesome GT 😉 )

    Oh a builder you say..... sweet we have some pretty amazing builders here &

    I'm sure they will be only more than happy to give you a hand if you have any

    questions...... Now I remember ur GT you posted on the track thread !

    Thank you for taking me up on my offer to stop in & check out the gang ✌😎


    If you think that's alot of pages it should be triple that ! ( we had a small....

    well major mishap really when Ubisoft was moving their site and my original

    2012 thread ( that had 500+ pages at 30 posts per page was lost )

    So that's when they felt bad and gave us our own section on the site !

    Yes pretty cool but I'd take the original thead back in a heart-beat 😉



    If you are on xbox please add me ( My GT: BOWEN BOYS 1 08 )

    It's along story ( Master Electrician ) Got my Masters at age 23 worked for a

    big company for 10yrs then started my own business ! ( got hurt in 94' )


    My back has been screw'd since... many operations all bad & worse ! My boys

    got me into gaming ( Now grown men ,ages 29 & 27 ❤ ❤ )

    My sisters would send us Xmas gifts marked " The Bowen Boys " & the name

    stuck....I started my live account in 08 ! 😎☺☺

    ( So that's my GT story... now let's here yours 🤔 ) Has something to do with

    motorcycles..... my youngest son Ryan bought a sweet KTM 450SX last year !


    Sounds like you will fit right in with the rest of us at the old age home for

    Trialers ! My name is Dave ( or as the gang calls me Boss....didn't like name at

    first but now I'm proud of it 😎 ( but.... Bigbow or Dave is fine also )


    Post abit about yourself and history if you feel like it and hang around the

    clubhouse and make some friends..... we have a real good group here & alot

    have been here almost from the start........


    Like I said we are very slow right now but next month it should really pick up

    here... like I said add me to your FL & look for your GT hope you are on

    Xbox and if you are please feel free to join my party ! ☺

    ( I have one going every day ) Please drop in and we can chat or if you have

    any questions about the gang ... right now our membership is in the 50 range


    We have some community builders & friends of the gang working on

    Anniversary builds for us for next month ! We've had great community

    support for all of our past anniversaries ✌😎 ❤



    Ok gang please make MMM feel at home and let's get the gang cranked up

    for our month long celebration starting next week ! We should have some

    tracks dropping next week.... so hit them hard & please send a little

    thank you note to all of our anniversary track builders !


    Also MMM you might be able to tell I'm abit of a MEGA POSTER 😀😁😂


    SO LET THE COUNTDOWN BEGIN GANG..... 8 GREAT YEARS ( What a ride )

    Thank you all for bring part of this amazing journey 💜💛💚🌎💚💛💜

    I don't mind long posts. I can get wordy at times.
    I really don't know texting and internet terms so I can only guess that GT is Game Tag? and FL is Friend List?
    I am on PC. Haven't owned a console since Playstation 2 & still have an Atari 2600, Nintendo (NES - SNES & Gamecube) Sega, Playstation 1&2 and a Commodore 64 & Amiga 500 in boxes somewhere.
    I use to build Electric Signs of all types back in my working days.
    I'll accept friend invitations from just about anyone I've had a respectable conversation with.
    I've also got a couple of kids 29 and 30 and a small handful of grandkids.
    Funny how different each generation can be in their thinking and views of the world.
    I find it just as easy to be friends with people whether they are 8 years old or 80. Just depends on the depth of their personality and level of respect for others.

    So is there an actual official membership for the OTHG? Or does one just say "I'm one of ya now"?

    Hello OTHGsters, good to see you in the thread here @MadMotoMan. You got a sweet collection of consoles i see 😋👍
    You can add my GT if you want. But i think that is not possible because i play on ps4 and xbox1.

    @All, i hope everyone is doing well and is still safe from the virus. I was working on a track pack for a few months. I can say that i finished my last track. I will upload the track pack on june first. I hope you all will enjoy these 5 new tracks. They are 5 completely different tracks with different elements. I hope this is the start for a awesome month of celebration to all of you oldy's 🤣✌

    Stay safe and happy 8th years! 🍻🎉🎊🎈

    Hi OTHG'STERS,

    Yes #8 is coming up fast and would really like to see some OTHG track

    riding & grinding parties out there !


    I will be on 2 or 3 times a week for a couple of hours all through June.....

    I think we will have aprox. 5 to 10 Anniversary builds so please get out &

    Ride...... plus I will post some of the best Anniversary builds from the past on

    the Activity Feed ( as long as the new Xbox dashboard doesn't drive me crazy )


    Please also send the builders a little thank you message for the track and

    what you liked about the build and maybe check out some of their past &

    future builds..... ok see you on the leaderboards gang ✌😎


    KEEP HEALTHY AND SAFE EVERYONE.......
