UK Trials Talk

Got the new issue of TBM this morning, complete with "YOU HAVE USED WORDS OR A PHRASE WHICH ARE NOT PERMITTED ON THIS WEBSITE. PLEASE DELETE YOUR POST/TOPIC. DO NOT TRY TO CIRCUMVENT THE FILTERS IN PLACE ON THIS WEBSITE" supplement (this is the stuff that they were planning to produce as a seperate mag before TMX suddenly jumped into the market - in fact, editor Si Melber has a dig at TMX in his editorial column.) Anyway, I haven't read all the way through yet but it certainly seems to be true to the TBM ethos, as promised: "Say what you think and bugger the consequences." Considering the main feature is a 5-bike head to head test using Melber, Mike Rapley and John Sunt…

I have read in TMX that all Richmond trials are cancelled until June! All due to the DEFRA b****cks The regs are still in TMX though, does any one know whether it is on or not, I suspect it will be off but theres no harm in hoping! I feel for the Richmond club, the sooner we get this sorted & the DEFRA ruling proved to be unlawful the better. I'm off to donate some money to the LARA fund & I urge everyone else to do the same asap. The sooner we stop sufferin in silence the better.

Hi all, Just wondered if anyone can help tell me where is the trial on this Saturday 7th May. Llangollen D.M.C.C. club championship, is all I know. Its really a post for my parents,...they might be in the area, and were thinking of going to watch the event. Cheers in advance for any help.

First update of entries for the Manx: As at yesterday, first day of entries being open we received 75! If you have one, don't hang around, if you want one be quick! www.manx2day.com (website is new and will be updated over the next few weeks)

I was thinking about coming down from Edinburgh this weekend for the two day trial at Rogerley Quarry. I know it hasnt been formally cancelled but can anyone verify that it is definitly taking place as train tickets are quite expensive. Thanks Kirk

does any body know the top speed of the current trials bikes on the road??.

St David

Any results?

I've looked everywhere I can think of for these, and save for the top 10 or thereabouts that someone kindly posted on TC, they are nowhere to be seen. Come on, don't keep us in suspense YG, did I come last or not??

anyone found the full results yet??

Great trial today anyone got any results yet?

Herd from a Club lad that as of May 1st no practicing at Wycoller, is this correct? What about the events Pennine Range and Bradford run there?

Strikes me that young Dan Thorpe is busy proving he's the "best of the rest" in the UK. Good on ya Dan.

Here's a copy of the results emailed to me, just untill Andy gets them on the fromt page. Sorry about the way they're presented but it was the easiest I could think of. Copy and paste didn't work to well.

Does anybody know where this is going to be held? And before all of those witty replies come back, I can pretty much guess that it will be in the South Eastern part of Wales!

Any results from today's Pollock? I heard the weather was a little ****ty...

These are 'very' provisional results. The organisors are emailing the final and full results through for TrialsCentral. Dan Thorpe 2 (I think on furthest cleans by the look of it) Tom Sagar 2 Mika Vesterinen 3 Dan Farrer 6 Richard Allen 6 Liam Walker 8 Chris Pearson 9 Wayne Holdsworth 10 (Looks like you got your points chap ) John Crinson 12 Adam Norris 13 Aran Drachenburg 17 Guy Kendrew 20 Gary Jenkins 21 Rob Wrigley 24 Neil Bowden 24

Was at Lomax today, early number didnt favour us. Not a bad trial though few muddy, streams etc Anyone got results??

If anybody is around the Mid Wales area this weekend, Saturday sees the Welsh Trophy Trial circling around the Newtown area. If anybody fancies helping out by observing then please contact Graham Evans at David Jones Newtown on 01686 625010 option 1 Single lap trial, no big delays, so you're not stuck on one section all day. A few of us local lads will be observing 2 sections at different times through the day, but even if you fancy just one, and then have a watch, that'd be a great help. I've not seen many sidecars about before, and there are around 25 chairs entered, so looking forward to it.
