USA Trials

Just takin a few weeks off from Trial Central and poor Mr. Ringo stired the pot tryin to help a buddy. Andy.....please re open the topic so I can get a few posts in......you owe me. I think those boys (and girls) from the birthplace of Trials should pitch in and buy Johnny a plate of "Ribs"

From Mike, at The Tryals Shop , should be here in about 2 weeks , now the weather will turn nasty till May , after one of the nicest falls we've had for several years . Looking forward to it. First new bike I've bought in 30 years , I always get them when 1 year old.

Who sells falcon shocks in the US?..I`m looking to get info on the piggyback mx shocks...thanks..johnnyb

Hey gang, for all of you around the world who have travelled to Palm Springs or Pheonix - any suggestions for a place to camp with the trailer and places to ride single track or enduro? We are looking to go down in Feb/March for a bunch of weeks to get away from the Canadian snow/rain. I need a plcae that has wifi/cel coverage as I will still be working. thanks!

EARTH TO JOHNNY.......COME IN JOHNNY....... The guy gets lost in town....how's he ever going to find Vegas though the desert?

Here is the real story from Vegas. photo borrowed from VitalMX

Just got my new copy of the AMA American Motorcyclist magazine and Debbie Evans is on the cover. Very good article, great photos and well worth reading. There is also a photo and short article on the USA Trials des Nations team. Jon

After attending the Ontario CA Endurocross, I am amazed by the popularity of this sport among young (and a few old)Trials Riders. A $100. entry, and about 1 hr of total riding time the whole day! Speed,Fame,Money,..... the reasons lost on me.

The last US World Round was 2008. There will be no US round for 2012. Thats a 4 year dry spell, the longest ever? The Aussies have a WR for 2012.

All USA NATC National Riders: There is a week left to send back your rider survey. If you have not filled it out, now is the time to do so and send it back. I sent out 200, received back 76. Next year riders will be able to fill out the survey on line immediately after the event, while it is still fresh in your mind. Thanks in advance Jim Watson

Well....lost a jitsie carbon/kevlar fork guard....disc side....2010 GasGas (Marzocchi aluinum). This is the kind that just form fits to the lower fork leg...carbon or kevlar i think. Anyone out there lose a disc side and need a rightside? Anyone out there lose a right side and want to sell a disc side?

Disclaimer: Non-trials information. Great story. 41-year-old earns first National AMA win after 23 years of racing.

What should they do next to WOW the crowd?, They should have some pretty good backing now to set up props. My first thought is a van or car or motorhome, U Haul Truck. People need to relate to something. When you say they rode up a van, people have a grasp of what they did. When you say they jumped from one stand to another it is hard to get. I was thinking a hot chick to bunny hop over or more hot girls is always good. A good chase scene. What ideas do you have.Lane could help them (seriously). Ringo could MC, Pat could give a speech?? Lets give them some ideas (like they need our help).

Has anyone tried one of these evaporative cooling vests (MOTOBOSS or Bilt Cooling Vests from Cycle Gear) during a trial? Do they work as advertised?

Hi guys, Knowing that our US (and Canadian) counterparts tend to use their bikes for longer trips, I was hoping a post here might generate some useful replies! Basically, I managed to get hold of the Beta long range tanks/seat unit for my '07 Rev 3 4T - but no fitting instructions. If anyone has fitted such a thing to their bike, or even better has the fitting instructions, a walkthrough of how it goes on would be much appreciated. The Beta factory is closed for the whole of August, so I'm left a bit stumped for now. Thanks

Does anyone know who won the Geritol trials

Hey everyone, I have been requested by Copemech to share this video on the forum, enjoy!

After a couple of years of strategy meetings, financial restructuring and corporate resolutions, I

If anyone is driving through Durant Oklahoma on their way to So CA anytime soon and would like some fuel money for picking up a Montesa and delivering it, email me at ringomoto@yahoo.com I'd rather pay a fellow trials rider then an unknow shipping company.
