Guess you would think there to be no harm in sending the kids to a website you use and trust! to get the results from the last trial.... Well beware the one posted below, you may get a shock when you see the results printed off. Is this what you would expect on your clubs website to be seen by the world... is this what you would expect to see on a ACU affilliated club website, i do also beleive he is the Northern Centre's trials recorder... Whilst not the worst thing you have seen on the web i'm sure, it still ranks high in being totally inappropriate and a disgrace to the small trialing world we live in... I'm not sure it will offend totally! many adults, but like i said, what about little Johnny trials rider seeing how he did last sunday.... I'm sure it may go soon, but for those who want to see how low people go, click here(adults only) lakesgrasstrackracingclub

just a quick post to know if anyone has any results, as i write this mid morning on monday, still not seen any results..... very wet but a great trial heres to many more like this, oh and btw another road based trial in the north..... long may these continue, if you werent there, you did miss a brilliant trial! the entry was good in number, and also full of quality riders taking part. If i was totally critical, i would say, while the start venue was hard standing, it was quite small to fit all and catering a little poor, no food available afer the trial and the pub not serving food till 6pm. It had been a long wet day, and a hot bacon buttie and brew would of been well appreciated for riders, helpers and observers come the finish. That said, dont let that take anything from a top notch trial between the flags....

the clip didnt look slick to me, in fact very poor, i would of thought freestyle trials would of been a load of indoor trial type sections close together and ridden in the style and flair of the rider, and then judged on difficulty and style, only my thought. my other thought is slightly more serious, these bikes are not designed for this, so how long before a frame brakes or suspension or wheel collapse..... and the potential injury that goes with it. im sure the serious will do bike strengthening and mods, but most wont, to me the organisers are taking a very big risk, and if insured, im sure the insurance company will not cover this as soon as it is realised what is being done on these bikes and what they are designed for, i bet this also worries the manufacturers..... as we know no one is safe in the world of litigation!

just to let you know that TT flyer and 15 times winner John McGuinness will once again take part in the Barbon Hill Climb, Barbon, nr Kirkby Lonsdale, Cumbria. joining John will be the very crazy World Famous Purple Helmets..... yes its true! for a couple of proformances, also on display will be the Paul Bird Motorsport team, showing the Kawasaki world Superbikes as well as possibly 2 times World Enduro Champion, David Knights new Kawasaki enduro weapon.... gates open 9-00am Saturday 1st August 2009. there is a chance that some other top riders wont want to be outdone and may well turn out, Stuart Easton lying 3rd in the BSB is said to be there, in 2007 Steve Plater and Michael Rutter attended and dont be surprised if one doesnt come to wander the paddock this year. Add in the possability of James Ellison and you really do have a who's who of Tarmac racers. its access all areas, so you really can join them in the paddock as well as take in all the other attractions of this small event hosted by the Westmorland Motor Club. You really will enjoy this venue, set in the parkland of the Barbon Manor overlooking the countryside of the Lune Valley. dont miss out, its only
