A date clash with the Man17 Fisher Trial will certainly have taken some of your entries.

Early 80's Photos
Fuel tank filler cap off the centre of the tank says its not Campbell and Flowers as they had a beamish Suzuki tank, so the trials wellies suggest Geoff Gadsby and Mick Gaunt who did amazing things on that bike.

Tape half a power bar and an energy drink to each petrol can. Re fuel yourself as well as the bike.

Northern Experts
Dabster. Or any board members, how do you best see the trial changed and what would you like different in the clubmen sections. As part of the organising team we are very aware that it is primarily an "expert trial" with the addition of a now very popular clubmen class.

Sidecar Trials
8 Championship course and 25 clubman course, thats an average of 66 competitors at each round! Quite a healthy series dont you think? Whilst all the solo boys are tucked up un bed the night before a champ round, the sidecar lads are all in the boozer having a laugh!

Largest Trials Bike....
Gaskell did run a 360 motor in his Beamish sidecar outfit, but that was tame after Graham Campbell welded a 500 suzuki thumper engine into one. This along with Grahams apparrent total innability to see danger just had to be seen!

Bemrose
About 20 odd miles or so of roads and tracks, normally with a fuel stop about half way.

Washing...
Janitol, about 30 to 1 in a garden spray container, then an ordinary hose. The bikes clean every time and the bearings dont get filled with water. Only use janitol origional tho.

Mabe one of the officials from the acu could tell us what the new legislation actually is and how it is going to affect us!!!

Ssdt Fever
Why do most riders in the ssdt insist on new tyres? In my experience as long as there not too knackered at the start they will easy last the week! The only difference in grip level between a used and new tyre up say pipeline is in your head.
