USA Trials

Last Saturday's EnduroCross event was ruled by Trial guys. Of course Taddy was untouchable as always. Geoff Aaron had a mishap early, but climbed back to second in the main event. Cody had a very solid day....he finished second in his heat and made it up to fourth in the main. Commo was having an incredible heat holding onto second...almost appearing to be riding over his head....and then went over his head (literally!)...I assume he was too sore to come back to the semis. Local Trials Rider Josh Nutsch won the TrialsCross event. It was a great night.

LewisSportUSA web site has been down for at least a week. I tried from several computers around the country and no luck. I chatted with the Lewis sport guys and they said it works fine for them. Does http://www.lewisportusa.com/ website work for you??

Hello fellow trials enthusiasts, I have created a web map in which you can place a point for where you live, as well as good places to ride. My hope is that people will be able to use this to network and make new riding friends and ride new areas. Click the details tab in the link below for more information. This link takes you to the mapping app: http://ps-dbs.maps.arcgis.com/apps/OnePane/basicviewer/index.html?appid=350418affc254bcabbf70d80863896ef Thanks and let’s ride! -Todd

For all of you who are anxiously awaiting, here are the unofficial results in the Pro class. Geoff and Chris tied in points (30 each) but Geoff took the win because he had 2 more cleans than Chris, and Keith completed the podium with 70 points. Conratulations guys!! I believe Bruce was 4th with 80+ points but I don't know the rest of the results. GasGas sweeps the podium!

What is the TTC 58K and does it have a good turnout of riders? sam

I can not believe all the vintage clips on youtube! Scrambles is actually MX? These vintage videos are way cool.

Many times, we are all just like politicians. We gripe a lot about things without really coming up with solutions, or being willing to try things to see if they might actually work because they are new or outside our comfort zone. I have been thinking about this for awhile now and decided it was time to throw it out there as guys like AMiller are starting to look at Gate Trials too, so I decided it would be better to begin a new thread than hijack the others. This is long, and I apologize for that, but I felt it needed detailed explanation to make my argument. So here it is. Since 1990 I’ve been in our club presidency more times than you can count on your fingers. …

Just a reminder that the “Trials Training Days” is coming up March 27-28 at TTC. The deadline for pre-registration is MARCH 15. If you’re planning on attending, go to and fill out the on-line registration form and follow the submission directions. It should be a great weekend of “Round Robin” type training clinics taught by the majority of the U.S. PRO Riders. A BBQ Dinner is being provided for everyone on Saturday evening. We’re also hosting a USA Trials des Nations fundraiser on Monday, March 29. It will be a PRO/AM Team Trial using the “Gatetrial” scoring method, with all proceeds going to the TDN team.

On Monday, March 29th, following the Trials Training Days at TTC, there will be a fundraiser fun trial for the TDN Team. It will be styled as a PRO/AM Team Trial using the "Gatetrial" scoring method. There will be several teams captained by the top PRO's who will then choose their team. The team with the MOST points win! This has been done at TTC in the past during trials bike week and is alot of fun. A minimum contribution of $25/rider is the entry fee with all the proceeds going to the USA TDN Team. So plan on staying at TTC past the RYP sponsored Training Days to do this event. There will also be other events scheduled during the week prior to the TENNESSEE NATI…

Yep, that is the word! This possibility has been rocking in the back of my head for awile now. Oh well, wish him the best! Cody is a great guy and so is his dad(Kip). This has probably been difficult for him, and god knows what No Jive will do. May put him permanatly into green riding gear! Waiting on that Ossa!

Hi everyone, Just a note. There will be a Vintage Trials Bike show at TTC during the festivities of the WR and National. Please try to get a chance to come see the bikes, we have some proud owners of vintage iron around. P.S. I'm trying to get a "roughest thing running class" so I can have something there!

Just watched it in NY! Texas is next! I'll be done by the time CA comes up!

Over the years I've attended several trials schools, lasting up to two days. My instructors have included Tommy Ahvala, Ray Peters, Ryan Young, Curt Comer, just to name a few. I still can't ride evry well, but that's another post. Here's my topic for discussion: Who do you think is the best trials riding teacher? Obviously, everyone learns differently, but, who helped you the most among those who have held schools? My nod goes to Ryan Young. I felt he was superb in translating, what he does so effortlessly, into words and actions that I could relate to.

Are any of you guys going?

If you cae to try on Sunday, fill in the comment section.

Goodmorning everyone. We should have fair coverage (with photos) on the TTC National this weekend. Weather is perfec. it's going to be in the upper 80's or low 90's by mid-day. Last night a decent thunderstorm rolled through the mountain ridge, which may or may not have a effect on today's sections. We'll see.
