We are expecting 3/4 of a million people to march today in Chicago. Funny, no way. They even altered our national Anthem for the event. Eight million immigrants are un-documented living in America.
* That's eight million jobs that aren't going to un-employeed Americans.
* That's eight million jobs that aren't collecting income taxes.
* That's eight million jobs that are not being paid a living wage.
* That's eight million jobs that offer no health insurance. Un-insured injuried workers strain the insurance premiums those of us do pay.
* That's a possible eight million terrorists. OK, that's a stretch.
Still we are dealing with this issue in the USA trials community with the leRiche brothers. From the best of my knowledge, they are following the rules.
And this is the county that dictates to us if we can ride on our own land? Where are the priorities?
My feeling is, get legal or go home.

I'm sure you can!
FYI, Don't listen to Noel, the bike isn't jinx'ed. That's the problem with his mind, he worries his little head about all that voo-doo stuff.
Now, does anyone want a 83' Montesa Cota 348?

My girlfriend said I look great in the one piece lycra suit.
That ones's for Bingo.

Who knew I would be so ahead of my time with this story? I wrote about this subject in Trials World last year. If more people would have bought the magazine maybe they wouldn't be out of business now.
FYI, I got paid well for this article and the check didn't bounce. Thanks TW.

Awesome photos from the recent past.

Darn newspapers, I was mis-quoted, I yelled, "Show us your testicual virility!"

What do you want to talk about, Keith's banana?

It should come as no surprise that I would love Wikipedia. According to Wikipedia's own entry, it is a "multilingual Web-based free-content encyclopedia." Wikipedia is also known as "the free encyclopedia that anyone can edit." Anybody who spends a little time learning the formatting standards and methods (look at the Wikipedia Wikipedia Boot Camp for help) can edit, add to, and create articles on the site, contributing their knowledge and expertise to that of the community. It's a truly amazing model for information collection and dispersion, putting control of the information in the hands of the users.
Wikipedia's main strength can also be its biggest weakness - by creating a community-based site and calling it an "encyclopedia" it makes it possible for people to publish false and malicious information in a trusted forum. However, a conscientious researcher will always consider his or her source carefully before considering the information to be factual. With the advent of the internet and the ability for anybody to publish anything, this is even more important.
Worse than information that is incomplete or incorrect is information that is purposely misleading, irrelevant or inconsistent with the mission of the site. Take for example the John Siegenthaler biography controversy in which a Wikipedia user edited the biography entry for John Siegenthaler Sr., suggesting that he had a role in the Kennedy assassination.
Other people may edit entries and add information that is completely irrelevant to the article. Here are some quotes on Wilipedia.
"[H]owever closely a Wikipedia article may at some point in its life attain to reliability, it is forever open to the uninformed or semiliterate meddler." - Former Encyclopedia Britannica editor Robert McHenry in an oft-cited 2004 piece The Faith-Based Encyclopedia.
"Wikipedia knows all, and what it doesn't know, you can tell it." - Homer Simpson
"The real problem is not Wikipedia, but reporters who fail to check their facts." - Ringo
"Only an idiot and a thug would scribble nonsense in a library book." - Jerry Garcia
"I love to edit most everything I read on Wikipedia, the editors hate me and send me nasty e-mails telling me to stop! - Craig G.

Here is a photo of Ron winding the tar out of the 125 on a 7 foot rock.

There was a Shan Moore sighting this weekend! Below is a captured shot of the man himself. I cropped out the hat logo, as it's not a paid advertiser of this site.

Here is the quick version and a few photos.
Thanks to all the observers, staff and set-up crew for making this a fun weekend!
Mark, it was nice chatting with you. That last five Patrick got at your section four cost the poor kid 6th place. It's most likely my fault, huh?

If Lane will accept my offer to be his minder, I will gladly follow him around for this event, and every time he screws up I'll gladly poke him in the eye with the aforementioned sharp stick, then cuss him out. It's the least I can do.

If you were to tell me "God Loves Me" I would check it out first.

Pack up the City-Van, City Trials is heading to Oklahoma. The TC budget doesn't cover AMA/NATC rounds so "Wild Bill" Smage and I are covering the cost.
Lock up the cattle, put the horses in the barn, we are on a tear. Little Patrick Smage needs a kick in the, well you know what, and Cousin Bill and I are going to fire up the troops. First target is that South African who is riding the Montesa.
That's right folks, you're getting two for the price of none. No more press release coverage. You'll get a first hand account of what went down on the Texas/Oklahoma border. Only on TC! Now we gotta find a Hotel with internet service.

As an American trials fan, when I root for a American trials rider, I root for those riders who try to earn world championship points.
Riders like Chris Florin, Cody Webb and Stevie Darrow.
-
I'm with you brother! Now what riders are with us?
-
Who's covering the AMA/NATC series for Trials Comp?
Or was Shan in two places at one time?
