Bike off trailer Helmet and boots on Start bike ( let it warm up ) Jump on Potter around the car park for a bit ( Before entering the woods ) Pull throttle wide open ( By accident ) whilst turning Couldn't grab the clutch Slammed into a brick wall at full wack !

Have heard that the southern center will not be sending a team to this years inter center team trial due to lack of money. Anyone know if this is true.

Heard something recently about an insurance scheme where your car has some kind of black box fitted that records the mileage you do and what time of day you drove. If it could be done with bikes it could be a cheap way for younger trials riders to get legal. Just riding on the road in daylight hours for say 20-30 sundays a year, 25 miles a time wouldn't put a lot of miles on your record. How it could be turned off for trials without road use may be a problem though! Mark T

We have hosted two Championship events with different venues. "the Mound" big steps etc., Sections at The Ice Factor a more traditional type of trial. We would like some feedback from competitors/spectators for the venue of this years trial. Arthur

Does anyone know if any roadwork involved as last trial at this venue had some, (clubman route)

Just like to say thanks to all at IDMCC for putting on a great trial at Ardersier on Sunday. Great day out with well laid out sections although the second lap got seriuosly boggy !!!! on some sections but by the third its was fine again, (a few wee alterations to the sections) Good one to start the year with.

Just thought I'd mention it for people in the mid-Wales/Cheshire area. I was talking to someone at todays event, and three local bike dealers are doing a bike demo day on the 19th January. I believe the three dealers are David Jones, Steve Plain, and Wylie and Holland but I'm not definite on all of them yet, I need to do some ringing tomorrow, I was too busy dragging flags in to speak to anyone at the end of the trial. I do know that the plan is to have the Montesa 4RT, the Sherco 4T, plus a load of Sherco/Gasser 2 strokes. I don't know if there are any other 2 strokes there. If anyone fancies a ride, Graham Evans is the bloke with the details and taking bookings on 01…

Hi everyone im from dewsbury west yorkshire and was wondering if anyone is a member af a trails club in or around the same area ? Ive had my bike (gasgas txt 280) around six months now and im now interested in joining a club and maybe getting into doing a few proper trials insted of just going around the woods and old quarrys in my area. Any info about clubs or places to ride would be much appreciated ive looked around on the net but not come up with much at all. I need answers and info like do i have to be legal on the bike to be a member of a club (ive got no bike license and it isnt road legal) and do i need to be a certain standard on the bike as im not very good …

As the memories of the TC Trial 2004 live at the back of everyones minds who attended, the booze, bikes, lovely weather and the great experience. Just been reading last years post about the TC Trial 04, the topic was posted in Febuary as when the regs were available (so I think). So the question to you Andy, as TC is now one year old...whats happening with the TC Trial 2005? As with last year some people got to know about it too late, and come March they had already made up there excuses...well this year there are no excuses. I believe feedback is important, and my feedback of last years trial is to keep it in the same place, same time. It was a great place, me and Li…
