SSDT Chat

Even at a quick look down the list: Alexz, Dib's, Sam, Browny, Jon, Jack and Jonny! Tough croud!

Some of us are still at work (but heading up tommorow ) and my day entailed seeing a couple of customers in Liverpool, so early start and on the M6 at 0630Hrs. At 0715Hrs we came to a grinding halt 5 miles before Junction 15..............and I was still there at 1100Hrs, I noted that the 3rd lane was now starting to move, I did what any Law abiding ''Van Driver'' would do and ''BARGE'' my way into that lane hoping to get off at 15 and head South. The plan worked as I made up the 5 miles in the next half hour off at 15 and back South 1145Hrs.....ish. While sitting there for several hours I wondered how many riders or spectators were in this gridlock heading up to the Pre…

HERE #192 - will it start the trial will it finish?

Did anyone else notice that, though entered, Vojta Klecka did not apparently ride this year and were they as sad as I to see this. He must have been doing the event as for as long as NIgel Birkett. A pity if the credit crunch has ended a marvellous run.

Are there a lot of delays with roadworks going up the Stirling way to Fort William? We never know which is the quickest way at the best of times!!

HI am looking for old SSDT Results 1992 in particular. I know this is going back a bit but a scanned copy sent as photo would do. Any help is welcome.

Best of luck if he's being driven up by Gordon Farley. Many years ago, GJ told me that GF had offered to take him up to Fort William for the day, in GF's new Ferrari. Apparently they did it!

I was lucky enough to get an entry in this years SSDT and have decided to attempt to raise funds for charity (Cancer Research UK) in the process, having recently lost my grandmother to cancer. It will be my first attempt at the event and am really looking forward to it! Any donation however big or small will be much appreciated, and I'm looking forward to seeing you all in May! Sponsor Me

Well people some people ride the trial and are happy to get round and finish, this being an achievment in it's own. This year there are four hardy soles doing the trial so that others can get some happiness at the end of it. Click the link for further info. http://trialsvision.com/

Hello People. My daughter has left her XC-Tinc, yellow trials jacket at the Lower Mamore section "C" today ( Saturday). We went back later in the day but it had gone. If anyone perhaps knows the where abouts of said jacket, I would appreciate it if you could let me know either through this post or give me a call on 07881 495025. I will gladly pay any postage to have it returned. Thanks.

Looking for a ride to London area after the trial on Sunday the 7th. Will split petrol costs as well as driving if required. Cheers, Jon

Following on from the topic in T&MX this week about some discruntled rider not getting a ride yet again in this years SSDT. I am very passionate about the SSDT, and most people know how many years I have ridden this event, so I feel justified to offer my comments and support to one of the best trials in the world. Firstly the club have a very dificult job in who gets an entry, this selection process takes years of being part of the committee and has not been made easier this year with the sad passing away of Willie Dalling, so people should not forget that. Mark has taken over the reins and will continue to do a good job and the selection process has been made for …

Did anyone witness the crash between green honda civic and white transit at 12 noon on monday 7th may at junction of leanachan forest and A82.I know there was quite a few behind me ,so please help if you could ps transit driver denying he was even in scotland

This is just a quick note to those of you who have already paid your entry fee, and a warning to those of you who have still to do so! If you choose to pay either cash or a cheque over the counter, the bank may not pass on any reference that you give them - we are receiving these payments in our account and the only reference quoted is the sort code of the bank that you've made the payment at, meaning that we have no means of matching your payment to your entry. To those of you who have already paid over the counter... At the moment there are six unidentified payments in our account, paid on 26th January, 4th February, 9th February, 11th February and 12th February. If…
