Great 8th win, by a decent points margin too What a result, for a guy who doesn't ride Trials every week, compete in the british Championship or ride WTC anymore Even more of an achievement, in my book Pleasant chap, very down to earth at the sections and in Parc Ferme too Loved the SSDT, first visit for me this year and looking forward to next year already All the riders did brillaintly

For anybody who is interested, there is a Newcomer's Guide for SSDT first-timers on the SSDT website.

Does any one have information about events, or could verify the Golden anniversary of SSDT as described by Wikipedia. Thanks, and Happy New Year to All.

For those of you who don't bother reading the front page, entry forms for both the Pre-65 and the SSDT are now available from the SSDT website.

anybody from the Silsden/Skipton area going up to the Scottish on Fri 28th April, I need a lift, will share petrol cost. I don't trust riding up with our lad Sunday morning and I need to get mi bike dialed in sat if I can.

hi im going to do a cycle next sat. the reason i put this on the ssdt page is its the fri route at the scottish. It starts at banavie, heads along past glenfinnan, glenuig, lunch at strontian. we dont get the corran ferry we stay on the long road back to banavie. i have set up a just giving page. www.justgiving.com/steven-mycock for those who dont know me ive helped set out the scottish for the last 10+ years. im doing it for the RNLI i know times are hard but every little helps thanks for the support. steven

In may this year myself and a group of mates rode through Fort William on the signing on day for the SSDT aboard C90

A mate of mine from germany has been accepted with his sister to ride. She has a FIM licence cos she rides EM rounds. Her brother has DMSB B Licence (Deutsche Motor Sport Bund B- Licence). He can ride "Europen Open and National, all disciplins" rounds here in europe on that. Is his Licence OK ?From theb SSDT.org site it says.... "!The only licences valid for the SSDT are an ACU Registration Card, an SACU/MCUI Licence or a full FIM International Licence" What is an SACU/MCUI Licence??? Help needed quickly please

has anybody got any good tips for Cabby as newcomer to SSDT this year? Having done as many years with a book in my hand as I have ridden It occured to me that the Scottish is very differently observed to what he is used to plus you have same observers for 6 days I just cant imagine him having ability problems in the sections. There is always the possibility of getting lost ..out of fuel...time etc. will he be tempted into the evil ways of beer and haggis?

Good friend and local club rider Duncan Mitchell has put his TYZ up for sale. Now riding a Scorpa, Duncan has decided not to enter the old TYZ in the SSDT again. This in may ways is a sad loss as he has ridden 10 or 11 SSDTs on this bike with little other than routine maintance being required. It wasn't a SSDT special either. He rode Scottish national and all the club rounds on the bike too. Is this some sort of record or has someone done more on one bike? Where's Big John when you need him.

Will the 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 universal number board be available in the Parc Ferme ? it doesn't make a lot of sense to ship them over here to take back over there and pay extra for shipping, at least two in shipping alone.

Just a reminder for those of you that don't read the front page...SSDT entries close on Friday. If you're sending a form in this week, it must be with us by Friday, as the ballot will be done over the weekend and late entries will be too late....no excuses accepted! If you've posted yours and are dubious about whether or not it will arrive by Friday, email ssdtoffice@ssdt.wanadoo.co.uk - that way I'll make sure your name is included in the ballot so that you don't miss out. Good luck to those of you who have been organised enough to get your form in on time!

Been on the official SSDT site but nothing on there about the Pre 65 trial. Anybody know who won or a site where i can see the results

Every year some of us get together during SSDT week at a very good curry house on the High Street in Ft. Will for some good nosh and a bit of banter. That will be repeated this year and any TC reader is more than welcome, regardless of whether you're a rider, observer or a just a spectator in town for the event. Drop me an email for details/Contact No. during the week if you want to come along - trialscentral AT trialscentral.com

Courtesy of Shirty. This is also on the front page. Gas Gas Pro SSDT check list. 1. Check spokes in both front & rear wheels for tightness as they may have worked loose since first being checked. 2. Fit new MICHELIN tyres on the front and back. The heat generated on the road destroys tyres and only Michelins stand the abuse. You can get the whole week out of one rear tyre but we recommend using two. We also recommend using a thicker Enduro inner tube in the front. 3. Repack your silencer with some good quality packing wool. (We recommend SILENTSPORT). It
