UK Trials Talk

A big bit of work from Andy and.............................. You're absolutely right I'll spread the word

National Colonial Trial - February 8th 2004 You will be pleased to know that the Colonial regs are ready for the off - not been posted just yet but will be out in the next couple of weeks. Unfortunately we cannot email regs to anyone so if you would like a set then please email me with your postal address and i will see you lovely TC people get them as soon as they are out. The only thing i will say is that when you do get the regs don't hesitate with them, it is on a first come last away entry and we have had a lot of interest so we think it will fill up fast as in previous years - we are limited to 130 riders. Hope to see you all there. ELLIS@malton7.freeserve.c…

I went to spectate at a local trial a few weeks ago and saw a girl riding the expert route ,who looked very good. I have just watched the bit on Eurosport on the outdoor Tdn and realised it was Maria Conway I saw at the local trial...no wonder she looked good...she is good. She also had top spot on the hillclimb held at the event ,but I left before the end so dont know if she won it Regards N

What's your thoughts on this... Apparently at a trader level there's currently a boom on those roadies buying into off roaders - trouble is they're Enduro/Trail/MX and not Trialsters. Witnessed this first hand yesterday, a group of lads I know have all parked the Hypersports bikes for the winter and are now buzzing round on big trailys. They have a very different view on the countryside to me and you - 'Ride it until you get caught', 'its just a bit of fun' and 'Who's gonna catch me on a 640, eh ?' These are normally responsible people (late 30s), who seem to have gone totally native since getting on the dirt - I have tried explaining how 'green lanes' work and that…

Heard two more whispers about Sam, think he is off to Sherco for 2004.
