  1. thank you for you information? do you sell a complete trailer?
  2. Thank you for the info, I notice there are quite a few DIY part kits available on eBay for trailers I wonder how many get IVA approved! Now I have anxiety about my own trailer, I modified an old trailer into a bike trailer with quite a few mods didn't even know about IVA or type approval!?!?!
  3. Is that more for new trailers? I think he was going to remove the back and weld a couple of rails on the chassis, like the home made ones you see at the trials (and on ebay) He just wants to make sure he's not breaking the law
  4. A friend as asked if he can modify his old builders trailer into a bike trailer, or if it would now need to be type approved after the modifications? I would be handy if he did, as he wants to borrow mine!
  5. Yes, I got the licence form from shatterford trial
  6. I’ve just received my AMCA licence but it seems I’m not a member of any club, will this cause me any problems entering trials? The application form I used had N/A in the club section

    Hot Gasgas

    It was the fan that caused the problem, I came off and broke the connector plug! the heat and pressure caused the seal to fail, its also broke the impeller Don't know what hurts the most, the money to repair it or my foot from the fall!

    Hot Gasgas

    My bike overheated today, the fan motor failed and it dumped all the coolant into the gearbox. It didn’t seize but it got very hot!!! Would this have done any damage to the piston/bore?
  9. Excellent, thank you for the info
  10. I presume it starts at 11am, as it also has 8am on the TC calendar?
  11. Isn’t that the idea of a forum, to ask questions? Plus I don’t have to hassle someone who is probably working very hard arranging the trial!
  12. It doesn't say if there's an easy route?
  13. Does anyone know if the Market Drayton trial is running an easy route or a route suitable for beginners this sunday?
  14. I've got a bag of marking pegs that I use when practicing, I mark out a couple of sections and keep practicing I seem to do everything wrong when I’m in a trial, I make the simplest mistakes! My biggest problem is I keep going the wrong way though sections, even though I walk it and watch other riders!
  15. I’ve done 3 dead easy trials and 8 'C' route trials, and many hours of practice My problem is I’m still finishing last or last but one, is this normal or am I just crap at trials? I’m now losing confidence!
  16. Thank you Do you know if it has a beginners route?
  17. Does anyone have any details about the upcoming (09/10/16) trial at Evesham? It’s on the ACU fixture list but I cannot find any info?
  18. I have read in old posts that a Mich or IRC are the best, but would a new mitas be ok for a novice?
  19. I also noticed there's a trial on the ACU Midland Centre for Dudley, does anyone know the details for this trial?
  20. Is that the Acorns trial? would it be suitable for a complete novice? And thank you all for your help
  21. I’m looking for a trial this weekend but I’m having difficulty in finding any In fact I’m struggling finding any trials, other than the ones advertised on this site?
  22. I did that when I got the bike, now I have the same radius on both sides of the blocks
  23. I have a Michelin on the rear but I’m not sure of the condition, it has 10mm height on the blocks but the edges have a 3mm radius Is this tyre still ok for a novice?
  24. Is tomorrows trial suitable for a beginner, is there an easy route? cheers
