Trials In Romania
Is the job going to be life changing money?? if not take a loan, i cant wait till next year and student grants What a nice sherco thats going to buy Why not leave the mont here and buy a nice KTM out there.......think of the possible injuries wearing you one piece suit on a 400cc bike. You said about a further interview, dont know whether to say hope it goes well or hope it goes badly so you have to stay here and ride trials and HOPEFULLY damage the flat tank

What Not To Do When Learning Bike Trials

Have you thought about getting each stage done separately. Firstly take the wheel apart yourself.......simple Then contact a local anodizer/powder coater etc Then with the spokes that you took out measure them and order a set. Then if you can lace the wheel up, if not get the local bike shop to build it and tension the spokes. It can work out cheaply depending what the anodizing costs the local bike shop should charge about

Novogar Clubmans Championship.
Why did you go and do that for........the debate begins

Tyre Leaking Air Through Spokes
Not neccessarily nigel. If you are stupid (me) you will just inflate till your hearts content and it will work..........or the tyre pops, either way im happy. p.s the tyre beader is too easy, it takes all the fun out of tyre fitting, it removes the danger factor.

Trials In Romania
Do you mean going to live out there for a long time or just a few months?? If it is for a long time can i have the 4rt pleeeeeeeeeeease?? Have you done things like a google search?? Do you even speak romanian? My mum knows some lithiuanians and trying to explain trials to them was like removing the smell from poo

I hope you clicked no andy, just to show how angry you are
-
Four Stroke World Champiopnship
I see you ride a 4rt, it seems a bit biased to me Anyway montesa would win as they have had longer to get their riders used to the bike. Also gas gas dont even have a 4 stroke availabe so wouldnt even have a chance, and apparently they are having financial problems so may not be able to afford it

Observing At Classic Events
Bloody hell Old Trials f***wit I was only trying in a FIELD! Did you ever see steve monk on his fantic?? he could hop it amazingly i just wanted to see how difficult it really is. I much prefer to see someone like john kendall ride his triumph through an intermediate section than a modern bike rider, it just looks so smooth. Sorry if i contradicted the subject in the posts previously, I was just reading through and had a few questions

Beta 4-stroke
I dont see a gasser................. Good man

Observing At Classic Events
Sorry i didnt make myself very clear...... What i mean is i need to understand the rules in case there is a no-stop event and im always stopping and hopping etc on my beta so its gonna be a bit of a change. Oh yeah, went out on the beamish today AND i can hop on the back wheel going up a hill, shame the front brake doesnt work for endo's
-
Beta 4-stroke
hmmmm looks very nice. I was just wondering if the drive on the left and the shock offset to the left will affect its action in anyway???
-
Observing At Classic Events
Im just wondering.... If moden bikes are riding at a classic championship round (e.g if club opens trial to modern bikes togain a greater entry) and there is an expert route, many of these riders will stop to gain balance before attempting a step etc so should this be a 5??? Also if there is a log (randomly) and the bike stops on its sump guard as the rider trys to get it off without putting their foot down is this a 5. Sorry for questions as im starting twinshock trials soon and want to understand rules
