    I'm lucky!

    Missed two groups of sections, must have been blinded by the beautiful scenery

  3. Bet the daft bugger goes down to Chairlift in the morning.

    two more to go & six riders are within a 5 of the lead, who can name the winner?
  5. Split the waterpump cover, thought it possibly happened at Ba House but he didn't realise until going over the moor to Gorton. Couldn't locate a replacement cover & his liquid metal refused to set. Kinnel was sighted in PF this afternoon, allegedly.

    Sorry but he was excluded on Monday, he's been riding as a non award since. Long way to come to find out how hard it is to ride a trials bike round Scotland, others have done it before & I'm sure there'll be more in future years.
  7. On a 4rt you can take the swinging arm out & it's then possible to push the bearings out using a couple of sockets & a vice. Dunno if this works on a Sherco as I've never had to do one.
  8. The only good thing Ray Wilkins has ever done was getting sent off in Mexico

    My adjustable spanner (cheap 22mm size but ground out to go on 24mm) has the front axle stubby allen key welded onto it. I have one of these http://www.machinemart.co.uk/shop/product/details/pro-39-8-pce-tx-tamper-proof-bit-set standard screwdriver / hex bits fit the tool. Beware there's some cheapo ones on ebay that break when used.
  10. If you want one for a 4rt Caroline will supply them.

    When two of you are stood on a back wheel attempting to use 2 of these spanners to straighten a sprocket I can confirm that they bend quite easily. When used as a tyre lever they work fine.

    It fell off riding a section, do you know what it's like to attempt one?

    I'd disagree with that from personal experience.
  14. Money no object I'd have a 4rt for my marking out / training bike, it'd have to be altered a fair bit from out of the box though. You'd never see me ride it in a Trial as I'd plumb for a 2 stroke every time & that would include the SSDT.
  15. Not very good with post codes?

    Glen's 100% right, they'll see him in PF morning & night plus maybe a couple of times a day. If they don't ride the same pace across the moors they'll not see each other that often either.
  18. Heard a little story tonight involving a Beta & two vans, is it true? Did anybody see it happen? Has anybody got anything to confess?

  20. I always put a one tooth smaller front sprocket on a gasser & did the same on the last 4rt I had. Simply gives you more time.

    New Ossa!

    I wonder how they'll run in the SSDT? 40:1, a hint of diesel & a touch of water?
  22. Your local hardware store must love you, I bet you grind your way through at least two axes a month.
  23. I'd say it's an expensive bike, it's dealer money in the UK & lets face it somebody has had the best of it doing a lap of Scotland.
  24. Can't believe your chubby a*** had the energy to carry a bag to the top of every section Luv from Perce the Moosebag user
