I'll be dropping by all the pit areas - if beer is on offer then all the better!

Your sig is more apt than your posting. Not so much lock up your daughters as lock up your livers!

He has your polo shirt, which I assume is now back in the US of A! As for cigars, he was smoking a pipe.

This has been brewing for a while, but the flights are now finally booked. Trials Central is going international and I'm delighted to say I'll be in Duluth this year with the intention of giving coverage at least equal to, if not surpassing, the extensive coverage I give to the UK and more local International events I attend. I've made many good online friends from the US Trials community over the years - stretching back to my early days setting up the SSDT website. In all that time, I've only ever met one - Bentley Wolfe - and that was only two weeks ago and only because he was over here on business! I'm really looking forward to hooking up with as many of you as possible while I'm out there.

Bigfoot

The news comments doesn't like apostrophes. If you leave them out, it'll work.

All that quote unquote stuff musta taken you ages!

I'm just looking forward to seeing him ride. The guy will have the crowd in the palm of his hand - as usual.

It'll be a bank holiday weekend, know that much.

Discussions have been taking place in the background. We can't do the same weekend this year as I'll be away, but we're looking at other dates.

:D

Cheers. Have credited.

Please forward when you can!

I found him and we had a good day out at the Lauder. It was great to hook up with him and good that he was able to take in a Trial whilst he was here. Even better that there was one on so close as that doesn't happen often Just to prove he did actually make it out!

For those following this with great interest (sarcasm!) I tracked him down and we'll be at Lauder tomorow.

Mr Wolfe appears to have disappeared off the face of the planet! The hotel he told me he was in says he ain't there and I've left three voicemails on his "cellphone" today. Abducted by aliens?

An update to this has been posted to the front page. Red tape has delayed things a little, but Regs will be out shortly. I'll be posting them as soon as they're available.

Perce mentioned to me about the Trial on down in Lauder this weekend. Bent, could pick you up and take a run down there if you fancy it. It's not far and I've not been out with the camera for a while.

I'm heading up to Aberdeen this afternoon and will be there till Saturday. Could hook up Sunday if you want?

Been talking to Lochaber about that very subject over the past couple of days. Any time now.

You can buy cheap WWII rifles there. Never used, dropped once

The Spanish didn't cancel it. They can't, it's run by the FIM - a Swiss organisation. The Germans pulled out. (but I do like a good conspiracy theory!)
