My menu half vanishes on two of my pages!

Just updating a web site and when I've added two new pages, the menu is only half there. It validates properly, all of the code is there to show the whole menu and the page, (yes, I know it's probably something small, grrrr), can someone have a look for me and let me know if it's doing the same thing to them. Since bringing the css into validation, I've had nothing but bugs with the menu. the website is and the page in question is rider profiles, that page will only half load the menu as will it's "second" page with the extended menu when you click the "bikes" link in the rider profile page.

thanks in advance, hopefully it's not me going crazy and it's appearing on others screens.

Looks like it's only breaking in IE for Windows... I didn't have any problem with viewing it in Firefox. Nothing obvious stands out. I would look at removing all the styles from the page... and add in the navigation css a little at a time (until it breaks)... and work from there.

The thing with the styles, is that it came from the main page. When it didn't work, I just cut and paste the menu in. The browser is IE6. Every other page works with the menu, but these two pages. The bikes link is in the menu and drops down with more options by the way, loading the same page but with the options in the menu. Just looking at it in firefox and it's as it should be.

The page was also working before I added the 3rd name to the table... I just cut the body out of the page and left the menu, and it re-appeared...
 
Found the problem. For some reason, the menu disappears at the part where the w3c gifs appear. I pulled out everything except the menu, then replaced parts from the bottom up. The menu disappeared from the spot that those 2 gifs appear. They're the only things on the page at the time. Why would that happen? It hasn't happened on the other pages that have validation gifs? I know I don't need them, but I wanted them there because I was pleased with my validation of the site, lol.
 
Yes, they are valid and it works on firefox. It was working on IE as well until I added another TD to the table. Discovered it's not just the gifs but anything I add to the body, the menu will disappear partially.
