A friend had a TY250 twin shock stolen white, frame number and engine number 483-300903 and his friends Fantic 301 with a twinshock conversion, so a fairly unique bike, colour Red, frame number is 7378 engine number 7445. Police think that they were an organised/planned thieft so if you hear of either of the bikes please let me know (matt12752000@yahoo.co.uk)...and maybe we can stop these nasty people that want to stop the rest of us honest people enjoying the things we work hard to buy! The police said that they have had reports of people following riders home from trials to find where they live and then going back at a later date to do their business! So keep an eye out.

Has any one thought of how difficult the new rule changes will be for observers. I currently see a number of disputes at to if someone rolled backwards, and the varying degrees of strictness of observers but now with non stop it is going to only get much much worse...and this especially counts and club level and even more for beginners...when the get stuck going over a slipery log or up a bank, and have to have a push over it is more often than not they will stop for a moment...not intentionally but none the less a stop...so it's a 5. I think this will discorage new riders, especiall young ones and most of all will make observing at all levels of the sport much more difficult. I know in our area it is already difficult to get observers, make their job even more difficult and sometimes controversial and we'll all end up having to observe each other!
