    we spoke to the old lady in the car,(she was probably about 70 years old) she was pretty shook up, the car was pretty messed up, front head light smashed out, front bumper cracked, and the front wing was hanging off.

  8. hi, i just wondered if any of you could let me know if there is any difference, between a beginers trial, and a novice trial, or what is the difference, between those two and an over 40s trial,??????? the reason i ask is that, when i was younger i had enjoyed owning and riding several trials bikes, (old monts and bultacos, 70s bikes) i hadnt however been in any trial, back then i had access to old pits, and woods, i carried on like that for about 10years or so. then i had a big gap of about 17 years of not owning or riding a bike at all, (except for doing some "proper" mountain bike riding). then in september, i decided to treat myself and went and bought a new sherco 290, as i have always missed owning a motorbike over that last 17 years. since september i have practiced on it 2 or three times a week every week, in january i joined scarborough club, and have been going practising up there every weekend since, what i want to do now though is start riding some of the easier trials regularly, but as the question says which are the easier?????? i am 43 years old and live at thirsk north yorkshire, so there are loads of trials going on all the time within easy travelling distance, and time and money are not a problem, are any of you in a similar situation, ?????? doing easy trials, as i wouldnt mind having someone to ride round with, to help get me in to it? cheers martin

    Sherco

    hi i have been reading post,s like this since last august when i bought my 290, the shop i bought it from advised me to use dexron automatic gear oil, i must say that having used this since august, riding my bike at least once a week i have never encountered this common problem myself. hope this helps martinc
  10. hmmmmmmm 24 hrs later and still no answer to my previous question, as to what i get for my money, that i pay to the a c u ?, no suprise really. mart
  11. hi, i am new to trials, a complete novice, one of the apealing factors was that it is a "relativley", cheap sport to get involved in, yet in contrast it is very, exciting, popular,and competitions are readily available without having to travel far, obviously i can understand the point of paying subscriptions to join a club or two, and getting access to practice grounds, this is in my opinion money well spent, and great value, especially compared to a lot of other sport,s and interest,s, but what i i dont know, yet would like to know is what do i get for paying my money to the a c u, what are the benefits to me as an individual, what do i get for my money, and where does the money go ? mart
