Bikes: Models 1996 - 2000 - 2004
Might this be a veiled "what bike should I buy" thread?

Exaust Pipes
Never buy anything from RS. Look elsewhere. Use the catalog as a reference., they're bl%^dy expensive.

Cody Webb
Good to see a "colonial" giving the WC a bash. About time. We've won title in road racing (Gardner, Doohan, Ballington, Corser, Bayliss, Redmond, Rainey, Lawson), MX (Albertyn, King, Reed, Langston, Parker, La Porte, Lackey, Schmidt) and Enduros (Watts and Merriman) why not (with the exception of Schrieber) trials?

Where's The Results
Thanks chaps. I didn't realise it was a one-dayer. TFT

Where's The Results
OK, I've looked everywhere, here, FIM, WorldtrialsInfo and I can't find the Spanish round results. Any clues?

Thinking Of Building A Greeves-bsa
I can't answer your question but I reckon your best bet is to ask Don Morley seeing that Ralph Venables (mayherestinpeace) has passed on. No idea how to get hold of him. You could try John Dickenson at TMXNews

Fork Dent, What To Do ?
The other alternative is hard solder.

That was as funny as some of the old spanish bike manuals

Will This Be Raga's Year?
I thought my "preference" would have been clear from the subsequent post.

Will This Be Raga's Year?
Lowest common denominator, that's me!

Photoshop Modifed Montesa
Looks like it'll take your gonads off (we'll exclude highland lass, katie etc from this).

Will This Be Raga's Year?
I'd do a sex oops set with Maria Sharapova!

Will This Be Raga's Year?
Grrrrr. Tiger Woods is the Anna Kournikova (sp?) of golf. No majors for two years (I'm open to correction) but still no 1 in the world rankings. Dougie's a class act who's staring at the slippery downhill, Woods (and Kournikova) are hyped out of all proportion.

Face Masks
Umm, interesting problem. I agree that riding under heavy tree cover can lead to choking on exhaust fumes. I'm not sure whether any face masks will help. I suppose you could try and find a bulletin board for dispatch riders, either motorbikes or bicycles, for help.

Arena Sections
Sod 'em. They already put up with me riding +- 1/2hr a day in the field! Nah seriously, there's an off-road park at Melkbos, opposite the Nuke power station who wants us to put up some trials sections. The place is as flat as a pancake so they'll have to be artificial. Nice sandy enduro tracks though.

Arena Sections
Sometime ago someone other than Ishy and Wayne posted some pictures of their arena sections (may have been on that "other" bulletin board). I remember him saying something about flagging down a passing dump truck filled with boulders and asking if he could have them. Anybody remember who it was?

His balance is a lot better since he canned the mustache

Mansell lives on the island..and he's not short a bob-or-two.

Time To Give Up
"We don't stop riding 'cause we get old, we get old 'cause we stop riding". Cliche I know but some truth in it.

How Much Do They Make?
Good question, I know that when Burgat signed for Fantic (about 20 yrs ago) it was rumoured to be for a six figure sum. Boofont, don't forget that Dougies a canny property developer on the Island, how much is from trials I haven't the foggiest.

Bike Crating
You might find a company near you that will do it for you. I was surprised to find such a company about 18 months ago. Cheap too.

Backflip
Suspension looks fine to me.

Shock Rebuilders
To all who are interested, shock was rebuilt by a local guy who did a cracking job. Cost was R900.00 or GBP75.00. TFT
