New sherco rider
Happened during season whilst you’d imagine he was technically under contract (normally run calendar year) so you’d assume that maybe KTM wanted rid and contract was nullified But who knows.

Hebo boot sizing
Hi, Possibly looking at getting some Hebo boots, but local shop does not hold stock. how do they come up size wise?? I'm an 8 1/2 shoe so would probably look at a 43 My old Sidi boots are an 8 and feel snug when I wear them now. Any experiences of sizing with Hebo?

What year is this bike reported as 2015?
Mmmmmm weird... I'd say from the pictures it is a 2012 factory but they were only 280cc had black frame, silver fork clamps, Termigoni carbon back box, Marzocchi forks, red footrests, cylinder head etc as yours has Factory R in 2013 was first 300cc but had green frame, gold fork clamps Termigoni carbon back box and Marzocchi forks - why paint frame, change clamps etc etc Factory R in 2014 also 300cc had green frame, black fork clamps, Termigoni back box and Tech forks so probably not a 2014 - why paint frame, change forks and clamps etc etc I'd guess almost certainly 2012 and a 280cc NOT 300cc

Some interesting views on WTC / FIM
I read on phone so just banged into google. Everyone seems to think the same thing and see the same issues apart from the idiots in charge. Like they're trying to kill it at world level

Some interesting views on WTC / FIM
Hope this is ok to publish on here (from Trialworld site) but please delete if not. * you will need to use google translate (or other) So, seems pretty much NO ONE likes WTC as it is yet NO ONE in a position to do anything to make changes!! How can this be???? https://www.trialworld.es/la-fim-se-plantea-no-haya-mochileros-mundial-2020/

Hold a stopwatch?? How many extra do you need?? surely any observer on their own could press start on a stopwatch and when it beeps its time up.

world round on tv ?
Was on at midnight on Monday.. bit late for when this was posted. For some reason when you search (on Sky) it doesnt appear under 'Trial' 'Trial GP' 'FIM' etc etc. I just went to Free Sports on the EPG and scrolled through. Coverage was OK, literally 1 section for top 5 or so trial2 riders and same for all Trial GP riders. Shame as an hour would be easily filled

proper transit but double cab (5 seats) with bulkhead
-
2 bikes in a L2 Transit with bulk head??
Hi, Yes a double cab transit (5 seats) with bulkhead in. Looking at the lengths of bike and load length in Transit suggests it is just too short to get them in straight, however assume with wheel angled slightly would be ok.

New value for money GasGas
1: you probably didn't pay £6399, especially in July with 19's a mere couple of months away - if you did then your dealer didn't help you at all and saw you coming 2: if your dealer is only offering £3500 then as mentioned elsewhere your dealer (possibly again) saw you coming and is fleecing you 3: think all the 18's now gone so you could see your rise a bit in value

2 bikes in a L2 Transit with bulk head??
Currently have a LWB Vito Dualiner and can get 2 bike in easily by rolling the rear seat forward. Am looking at a L2 (think that's Fords name for LWB) Transit but they have a bulkhead and the load length is a bit shorter than the length of a trials bike. Assume they would probably go in with front wheel turned etc but before I look any further thought I'd check - does anyone on here use a L2 transit with a bulkhead and gets 2 (or more) bikes in? If so, how? angled bars, cut a gap in bulkhead etc etc? TIA Nick

World Trial Calender
All up in the air ATM.. Sure Andy said not to look at booking anything until FIM confirmed dates / locations. Obviously UK cancelled ? Think Holland also cancelled... Probably be about 4 rounds in Spain

Age (and lack of riding) related aches
Love to Dave. As you know a lack of time and a son who needs to ride massively restricting my ability to do anything on the bike ? ?

Age (and lack of riding) related aches
Went for a practice for couple of hours today and now have really sore / achy knees. First time on bike since October (I’d guess) so am assuming this is a combination of total lack of riding - 2 evening trials in 2018 and 2/3 of a centre champ round before torn calf muscle stopped play - and age combining as a double whammy to tag team me in the knees. Will ice knees tonight and hopefully cure Any remedies to help this for future reference? Or should I just not ride at all and avoid the knee issues ???

Scorpa ditching WTC?
Definitely more money in enduro. Look at the good riders that have left WTC to ride enduro as was costing them too much to compete. Normally, what you'd call fringe riders who on their day could pump in a decent 6th, 7th place but normally 10-15th. Not getting paid, not getting costs covered but having the skill set needed to succeed in enduro and earn some ££ must be an easy decision

Scorpa ditching WTC?
1st January 2019 and Benoit Bincaz leaves Scorpa and signs for Beta for TrialGP Lorenzo Gandola leaves Scorpa and signs for Vertigo for Trial2 think that leaves Aniol Gelabert flying the orange flag in WTC in 2019. Another manufacturer struggling or just not wanting / needing to pump €€€ at WTC

Jitsie Protective Gear
My son wears the chest / back protector, never had any issues, very felxible and stretchy and doesn't hinder his riding at all.
