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.

Is there going to be a new Mont?
- Swinging arm bearing removal.
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.- Can someone put a sock in his mouth
The only good thing Ray Wilkins has ever done was getting sent off in Mexico- Backpack weight
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.- Certificate of newness.
If you want one for a 4rt Caroline will supply them.- Backpack weight
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.- Backpack weight
It fell off riding a section, do you know what it's like to attempt one?- Backpack weight
I'd disagree with that from personal experience.- Montesa 4RT Best bike you have ever owned?
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.- Bemrose. Entry/Start times?
Not very good with post codes?- Cheap Goretex Jacket

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.- Heard a rumour, is it true?
Heard a little story tonight involving a Beta & two vans, is it true? Did anybody see it happen? Has anybody got anything to confess?- Brake Bleeding Saga.... HELP

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!
- Front aux tank yes or no?
Your local hardware store must love you, I bet you grind your way through at least two axes a month.- the right price?
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.- Front aux tank yes or no?
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 - Swinging arm bearing removal.
