Alexz trains, practices and rides a 125 all of the time. His results against others who spend the majority of their bike time on a 250 proves the majority Brit point of view perfectly. Just think how good his trials technique will be by the time he is allowed to move up to a 250 It's not all about hitting big steps with a clear run up... I haven't got the results to hand but one of the TC crowd commented on how many 3's one of the US riders dropped compared to the others. Also, how many were in that class altogether? DISCLAIMER I'm not intending to start off another UK -v- USA flame fest, although I would like to hear if Al Bechard still believes in American youths riding 250's is the best way forwards?

He used to do daft stuff like that after winning

There is a farmhouse at the bottom end of the beck, a flattish track leads to Trawden if you keep pushing for long enough! My mate Sharpy had to do this once whilst I drove round in the van

A brilliant trial with 4 laps of 10 sections in perfect Lancashire weather (p****d down all day). I hope the Observers have dried out and warmed up now, especially the young lad on No. 10 who got bullied, abused and showered in mud by 'riders' he had fived. There was a problem there recently so I hope that BDMC are allowed to run trials there in the future. Well done and thanks to the land owner, organisers, observers and helpers.

Try and get hold of one of those clear rubber strips that factory's use for loading bays (lots of strips hanging down to keep the draught out while the doors are open). Quite thick stuff and very tough too...

Eric looks genuine enough, not sure about the other two buggers though!

A Yamaha shop?

Cold Ravioli on a butty? Sheer class

I video'd Narita riding his 4 stroke Scorpa on Ben Nevis, very smooth and flowing on a pretty tough section. Loads of video footage been sent to Andy to post on TC but he's too busy chatting up Big Bad Bubba in Tennessee PS Any doubts about the Mont 4rt and it's EFI can be disproved when you see the video of Grant Morris (?) at Kilamalieu. I've watched it about 20 times so far

B*****ks! Is it Saturday or Sunday?

I don't think that pumping the different tyres up to the same pressure will give accurate results. I've found that the Dunlop D803 needs to be run at a lower pressure than the D801 to get the same sort of grip/feel.

Looks very nice, I need to dig my Onza out and play

Riding over that bridge was bonkers!

and that's a real dab

I hope they don't ditch their trademark tank/frame setup

Yep, and look at us now

They finished Day 1 then

Ben Hemmo, back on a Beta too

I couldn't make it both days so turned up on Sunday. Good trial at a brilliant venue with a decent sized lap, good variety of sections (14 of them x 3 laps ). Bloody stiff and sore this morning though Anybody used one of these things before? http://www.reachpharmacy.com/shop/customer...20&cat=0&page=1 The Mother in Law has one for her bad back and I tried it on my dodgy shoulder this morning...

Well done Jack, don't worry about your scores - just enjoy the trial and your results will improve

And here he is, prime suspect No. 1 - Ishy!

I didn't enter, thought I would have a year off

Here we go again... I got the first pic texted to me today with the message "Wish you were here? " The second pic just arrived! I think it's going to be one of those weeks

Is that one of those Sherco 50's?

Whatever his age, I think he is a she
