World Championship Chat

Hi does any body know the dates and venues for the world out doors 09 thanks

As detailed here Time limit cut to one minute per section (from 1.5 minutes) No walking the sections on the day Top riders no longer last to ride. Bou will be first man away in Spain I have my own thoughts on these, but what do others think?

Ok , so now that you've had a round at your home , how was observing No-Stop ???? Just had to ask Glenn

Looks like Raga could be struggling to compete in the Czech round. http://motor.as.com/motor/2015/05/25/mas_motor/1432567390_318567.html

football we cannot play in the uk but we can certainley ride trials bikes! well done dibbs and wiggy superb result

Full story Reasons ? Thoughts ? Anything to do with recent press releases ? Please discuss

Did I read those scores right? Alexz only had two 3's and Pune fived everything. How hard was that?!!!

Ok well we will first have to change the name of Moto Trials to Solo Enduro Cross. We will include the building of berms in sections as a standard practice and that may possibly turn into another TC forum topic link (berm building techniques). We here in the states will send over our left over bleachers from our NASCAR events because trials will just blow up in popularity due to the rule just like it did in the 90's. Heck we will even throw in some red neck fans who drink excessively and say ignorant things. (Just keeping with the theme and helping anyway I can FIM ) Now here is the fall out of this revolutionary idea. These ideas will bleed over into other activities.…

Just seen Japan, None Stop lol, it's got to be the worst decision in Trials up to date, what on earth have they done to the sport, the riders are stopping, its making it more difficult for the observers, I found myself laughing while watching, it should be called, "None Stop well just for a second or two" this is why Trials is a minority Sport, because there are too many idiots in charge making bad decisions. Progression is sometimes a backward step, this is one of those backward steps.

Anyone going to take a trip to Sweden for the WTC? It's going to be a nice course, havn't seen all the sections yet but those I have seen look very spectacular. I'm going to be minder on saturday and hopfully I'll be free on sunday to get around a take some photos.

I'm interested to read the letter in T&MX news today from a spectator at Hawkstone, refering to the five given to Liai Sanz for riding out of the section. Did anyone else see, or hear of the incident? The letter suggests that it was a bad call as she was just trying a different line which was subsequently used without penalty by others.

I'll be texting the Sheffield results as the happen back to r2wtrials who will update this thread. Please don't post messages in it!

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

Well done to the lad. I'm really pleased for him and I think having Fuji and Dougie as part of the team will help him keep his feet on the ground and not go down the arrogant route Raga did that has now bitten him firmly on Highland Lassie's favourite a**e! I am going to have some serious fun with Octagon on this one...

Well this weekend was the first WTC round, and a 2 day as well. Yet not one post on here!

Saw it on TC page on Facebook Next month's Tong British GP is in doubt because the promotors have withdrawn Talks are ongoing it is reported to resurrect it Shame if it gets dropped

Had an absolutely fantastic weekend up in fort bill, My first experience of a world round! This comment does not include all observers (I no trials could not go on without them) but unfortunately in some sections I have never seen poorer observation to date, Even with crowds shouting and pointing out wrong decisions things where going un-noticed (was a bit like germany v england).... This Did not spoil the action for me at all, We just felt some riders had been cheated out of a fair decision, I am aware that riders will try and bend the rules, But in all cases there are mitigating circumstances and poor decisions can affect a riders mind set and alters there performa…

Burnicle you are an idiot, I am fed up of him whinging about Bou getting away with 5s. He said it was a 5 and in Geneva and now tonight....watch the action rather than eyeing up who is in the background and maybe you will see it correct. Learn the rules too ! Sorry rant over, can we get someone better next year ?

As much as I don't want to say it the maths are stacking up against our Doug, six rounds left and he's 24 points down on Raga, fuji is 21. Its surely a 2 way thing between the top two Spaniards now isn't it? When (if ever) has there been a Spanish top 5 in the WTC??? End of an era hastened by the poor performance of the 4rt? Where would Doug Fuji and Frexia be if they were 315 mounted?

Right, first on all let me say, Andy will no doubt back up this post soon with front page news and far more details outlining what's going on so don't bombard me with questions about the event itself. Let me only say you're in for a big surprise and a very very special event. The reason for this post is that we are going to be running a Scott style charity auction at the Party on the Ben during this years UK rounds of the SPEA FIM Trial World Championship at Nevis Range near Fort William. I have a list of dealers that I'm soon going to be approaching for donations and Jake Miller of L+M Events is going to be speaking to the factories too so hopefully we will have some v…
