World Championship Chat

Hi all, Anybody see it?........must say, I thought the sections were great......and was Raga looking good or what! Ian.

If your coming early to the World Round in the USA there will be a vintage event at Bob Ginder's (B&J Racing). Bob is a couple of hours away from the TTC. The event date is 5-13-06.

I want to watch some Trials on TV but haven't seen any for a while! Are there some coming up that i should look out for Thanks

As the title say

Set my Sky box to record the trial on Eurosport last night (Friday) only to find out the program for the trial had been replaced !! Anyone know when or even if the program has been re-scheduled ?

As posted on TC: Trial des Nations Trial des Nations – Changes to team composition: Each Nation will be composed of 10 people with FIM Bibs: 3 Men Riders 3 Women Riders 2 Assistants for the entire team (Men and Women) ...1 Team Manager -1 Delegate Hmm and how many countries has 2-3 decent trials girls. how are they thinking! Btw does all 3 count. Will there be a A/B course for all? Will decimate the number of teams from 20-25 mens *4 + 8-12 ladies teams down to 8-12 teams... Why not run a mixed TDN 2+2 mens/ladies on Friday + Junior 125 teams (3 boys). The thought of a mixed event is good but keep the old mens/ladies event as well. Look at Biathloon where it has…

This weekend, over 15 Japanesse riders are signed up to compete in their home countries World Round. Any guesses who will compete for the U.S.A or Canada in Duluth? name them.

its on lads 4.30 tues aft

This morning i got back from Lake Garda in northern Italy where my wife and i stayed for a few days whilst visiting the Italian World round. We left there at 0830am and rolled in at Surrey at 01.30am.So tired i cant sleep. Anyway , ive been to few world rounds recently including the Swiss and Andorran jobbies and found that the Italian round was by far the hardest and the best. You could go where you wanted to and was free as well as being well organised It was about 35% so incredibly hot and dry / dusty. The sections were very impressive unitlizing large banks and huge boulders and rocks. The video of section 8 on this site does not do this natural trial justice. …

Does anyone know how Marc Freixa is after is horrendous crash in Andorra. I saw it from the next section and one minute he was on top of an extremely high rock and then he went toppling off, similar to Dougs in Duluth. For an intital second I thought it was James Dabill that had come off as Dan Hemmingway shouted, 'are you allright Jim?' No one wants to see any rider getting hurt and lets hope he is soon back to full fitness.

Did hear talk yesterday at the trial that the move to non stop is not going to happen in WTC, is that correct?

I see it's that time of year again to think about tickets for Sheffield indoor, haven't been for many years but think its time to give a visit again ( I went to the first) this time to take my 5 year old son. The big question is can you choose your seats when booking and where is a good area to sit (imagine too close is no good as too low) and where is a good place to stay close by? Any tips gratefully recieved.

does any one know any results?surely if raga wins tonight hes got it wrapped up?

Any practice pics ? Whats the weather like any rain yet ? Whos wining the masters Mini Trial ?

The start Dougie has made on the Beta is disappointing to say the least, I just watched a clip of Doug from around a year and a half ago when he was questioned about Dabbil beating him and he replied 'Is that a pig I see flying over' ! ... How things can change in a very short period of time It's not looking to good for Doug and certainly cant be good for Beta.. Any views on how this will all end ? .. will he get over it and sort his riding on the Beta ... or is this one just too much of a mountain to climb this time. Really disappointing ... perhaps he might be better off on the Beta 4 banger ? On the bright side, it shows what an awesome machine the 4rt really is .…

hi chaps i am going up to watch the fortwilliam trial in july i was just wondering if anyone went last year could tell me what the access to the sections was like could you get good view etc . thanks

Not a new situation I know, but looking at this years final championship positions Fuji is the first non Spaniard in 5th place. Looking to next year I think it'll only get worse. Casales returning from injury and you Busto improving fast there could be Spaniards in the top 7 positions. Good job they are only allowed one team at the TDN or they could have finished 1st, 2nd and 3rd!

has any one got the hawkstone park world round website address as i cant find it anywhere

Reading news reports, the south of Germany is having some real flooding, anyone know if this is in the same area as the Gefrees two day world round
