Given that other marques of a similar or even smaller size survive just fine, it's pretty apparent this situation is down to gross mismanagement - again. The bigger issue, and one there may be no return from even if they sort the latest problems out, is consumer confidence. You can have the best product going, but if people are wary about the stability of the company, all but the most loyal will shop elsewhere.
-
You can have all the rules you want, but as long as observers are cheating in favour of their home riders, with Italy and France being the worst, it will make no difference.

Five the chosen one? At the home of Honda? That equates to death by samurai. ?

Please keep this topic to FACT, not rumour and supposition.

Those who head to the SSDT for the first weekend and enjoy the Monday off work may need to change plans next year.

From the 2019 rules. New stuff is in bold.

Just had an email. No reason given.
"The rider finishes his successful stage in GasGas with the accomplishment of several championships such as the Trial of the Nations Outdoor in 2018, the X-Trial des Nations 2019 and the victory in the Hungarian and Japanese GP in 2018. In addition, the bronze medals at the X-Trial and the Spanish Trial Championship of 2018.
The GasGas family congratulates Jaime for his achievements and wishes him good luck and success for his professional future. "

I have some in the car. PM me your address and I'll sort out next week once I'm home or if you see me at my car (it's got TC signs on it) then give me a shout.

1969 SSDT Programme might be of some help

Revised calendar published
-
@cota kid have you any experience or contacts for shipping bikes to middle East?
-
That's exactly what Sport7 did. Anglesey is a race circuit. From what I can gather the ACU decided working with a new venue was too much work so approached John Kerwin about running it at Tong again, but he's declined for this year.
-
I believe so. Apparently the manufacturers didn't want to go there. Feel sorry for the guy behind it as he spent a fortune importing rock. I wouldn't be making any plans until a revised calendar comes out.
-
The Spanish youngsters get a lot of support from the RFME, paid for by their higher licence fees. Any attempt to increase licence fees in the UK to fund Youth Trials would be met with French-style rioting on the streets of Silsden.
-
Trial2 and Trial125 are now both World Championships. They didn't used to be, they were "World Cup" which is somehow different in the eyes of the FIM, but they do have full Championship status now.
-
I understand there may be other changes to the calendar originally published by Sport7. I believe Holland is out because the manufacturers didn't want to go there. Hope nobody's booked travel.
-
@section swept is there a competition between you and @oni nou as to which of you can fill these forums with the most bollocks? ?
-
Hope their video is better than their live results. No Dan Peace, no Dabill and two Grattarolas (who isn't even riding) ?
-
I see Cabestany has got a gig commentating on it, though I'd imagine that to be in Spanish only.
PS. Save money by just paying for one round and watching it seven times ?
-
Something to be aware of if you plan on riding Trials in Europe this year, particularly the young lads and lasses gearing up for the World/European Championships.

(I'm locking this because this isn't a political forum and I don't want the usual suspects spouting a load of bollocks about Brexit...)

A problem was identified with the Classifieds system whereby the "Advert Actions" dropdown wasn't working, making it impossible to edit or delete an existing advert. This has now been fixed. Any further problems, PM me.

I thought you were dead? Can't be far off it now. ☠️
