First Lap Scores for WTC Bou 31 Raga 52 Fuji 53 Kuroyama 56 Doug 57 Brown 61 Caby 61 Dibs 12th on 68. Bou looks to be walking it and Browny is having a good ride. Hopefully Doug can get a good second lap and bag a spot on the podium.

Jake is doing very well, and at the moment he's leading the ladies, but only just from Maria Conway. Not bad for someone who has hardly ridden for the best part of 20 years........(makes you sick doesn't it) Don't forget to give him a cheer and some encouragement, after all he is doing it for a worthwhile cause.

That bloke out of the Day of the Jackall at Hartlepools Canoe man seem to get passports easy enough.

Its got to be Michael Browns Top Trial Team Beta. Black Frame, red anodised clamps and the forks look fantastic.

Doug looked the best I've seen him ride for quite sometime. Looking very comfortable on the Beta. Perhaps if the predicted heavy rain had materialised, he may have just sneaked number 100. Whereas the very sunny conditions dried out the sections. Could all be down to his new number 2 minder.

If you know about pies, and I do, the words Pukka and Ginster are the the worst type of insult.... Now if your talking quality pies, the steak ones from Goodswens on Redcar High Street take some beating........ (Andy - I have no commercial interest in Goodswens - honest!)

I've got the hump now.

Perce, nice of you to share one of the photos from your specialist collection with us.

Probably something to do with the fact that it is in England in March..............Not really rocket science.

Gods Country, home of the parmo.

I major sponsorship deal with Ginsters is due to be announced very soon.

I see the Chancellor has cut the base rate of income tax to 28%. Almost makes we want to come back to the UK....lol How much is petrol now?

I can't see them but are they as collectable as ASBO's?

I don't think people are interested in this years series anymore, which is a shame. Hopefully the post Octagon Indoor WTC will put some prestige back into, what was once a great series. Well it was when Doug was winning it.

Judging by the price and availability of titanium, a pair of Raptors will probably increase in value... I had Raptors in my 4RT for a while now and they are excellent and the hangars position the pegs 10mm further back.

A true jock would have been too tight to have bought the sausage.

What about Carlisle as a provisional venue for the UK Round being promoted by Grimbo, that is very interesting.

Quite simply the indoor WTC has become a farce. Three rounds this year have now been cancelled and its going to take a huge amount of effort to put some prestige back into this event. I put the blame firmly onto Andy's favourite company, Octagon, their pathetic attempts at organising and promoting this series have put the indoor WTC back 10 years and totally justifies Avondale's decsion to go it alone. The question is who will organise it next year? Mr Bean, the English FA, DEFRA.

Supermoto, you've hardly riden any trials on the thing.

The 4 stroke Scorpa's performed allright enough for the Japanese Team in the 2007 TdN.

Be interesting to see how Friexa copes with returning back to 2 stroke after riding the Scorpa 4 stroke, which I thought he rode very well, at times.

Unfortunately Sunday is a normal working day for me and I can honestly say that the weather here is definitely like a hot British Summer.

DJ you haven't put the petrol with 2 stroke in it, again, have you?

Even though I spent all day at work I am NOT EVEN THE SLIGHEST BIT JEALOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Well done to Michael.
