  1. There was a few lads out on the 07 with Sacha and it seemed pretty good.
  2. FYI Cowes on the IOW and Ottery st mary are on ( near enough) the exact same lattitude. Funny that I think most of us here in the UK are horrified at the thought of having to travel 500 miles for a days trialing, but I guess thats just our opinion.......
  3. It should not be a suprise as its been talked about for 4 or 5 years now. Are you joking?
  4. Not 100% sure but a hose change can help too.
  5. No son I think you read it right, he was saying you fed your kid junk Only joking, guys. I havn't a clue what your lad should eat. There is an A & B list at the bottom of Perce's link above, those are the youth nationals for the top two classes in the year, you are allowed to drop one round. My guess is the two farthest away from each other north to south Richmond to otter vale devon, is maybe 400 miles? East to west kent to Abergaveney maybe 300?
  6. Lots of people have talked about this graet event last year, is it happening again in october????
  7. cooked in butter, not forgetting the maple syrup pancakes for breakfast?
  8. Saw MC at Seymours last wdnesday, looked good to me, we shall see at the TDN won't we, maria is riding currently think she has done a few trials recently local stuff so maybe that doesn't get noticed, but dougie and steve thats stretching the point a little isn't it???
  9. The important thing is that they are good lads and exceptional talent not that they are in one club. IMHO and proved pretty much when she was riding regularily Maria Conway, MC is definately better. She may have not been riding as much but she finished the Scott didn't she? Have any others (ladies) done that recently, if ever?
  10. Never ever did I say it wasn't important to let people know when Chris or George did well, likewise its always good to hear how the lads are doing even if they don't win. Almost single handidly I ploughed a furrow for reporting the european youth rounds albeit promoting Alexz, but it has paved the way and Jack Challoner is getting some benfit from it as TMX and the general traials public know a bit about what the youngsters are doing abroad. It is very easy to register as Team George or even team IOW but it does require a bit of effort and Andy will help you get started I'm sure. The internet is a great way to tell us about British Success and you should have a thicker skin if you get the results shout about it and if not tell us also.
  11. Possibly but is it important? Has there ever been so many classes for the winning of such championships? Why is the best uk lady not riding the championship?
  12. Don't use wd 40 only tyre soap, thats what its for.
  13. How do you know???? it'snot like you've owned many What was it I heard 54?
  14. Sea France are particularily good whenever I have used them, lots of sailings and let you go on earlier boats if you get there and there is space.
  15. yes you can. Not too sure of the number off hand but someone in the states probably does. About
  16. For every complaint about a gas gas there are 100 happy guys. I had 6 Sherco's and never had a real problem, except one thermostat, (bad batch02), and a stator (bad batch 04). Had my first gasser in 06 and more than happy looking forward to another in 07.
  17. Think Scorpa did the same thing here, maybe its just me but I think they want to sell more bikes.
  18. I was looking at an old video of the World round in the UK back in the 70 s sure there was alot of ordinary lads having a go then, things move on and change but its a shame that we dont have enough to make up the numbers, it is a bigger gap than ever........
  19. Perce whats the latest on next weeks A & B round then?
  20. Quality is worth waiting for Sadly aftre waiting for 5 years I never felt the componants of the Sherco were that, it was like it was built to a price ratheter than a specification. My best modification was a rear shock which made the bike alot better, sadly it looks like Sherco have finally realised this. Too late for me.
  21. Thought we would have seen pictures before now. They always used to be the first but Gas Gas have taken over there, and the september delivery looks like it will be later theis year, I guess.
  22. My view would be leave the muddy ones in. 40 sections 38 benefitting a later number? Also those welsh streams are so slippy to the early ones too. Variety?
  23. Not 100% sure but at 16 you can ride a 250 as an adult
