  1. Hadn't you heared BS, Andy had location destination tags made up for him. Along the lines "if found please deliver to etc" Also a set to be completed once the route is finalized for the 05 Scottish. Don't follow me I'm lost!!
  2. I don't know if it's a good idea to have Kinell be the TC press reporter at the final world round this weekend. With around 200lb of chocolate up for grabs we could see no photos or reports and a cheeky grin covered in chocolate hid behind the podium
  3. he could wear smartie tubes on his legs to cover them up so the puffs don't fancy him
  4. Bloody stuck in't shed, why don't you sell me that bugger Twinshock, I'll event trade thi the seeley if tha wants somthing to polish
  5. when you get married BB, you should tell that to your wife, she'll show you bloody rocket science.
  6. If you hadn't started the topic asking about results I would of said you
  7. Full results here http://www.natctrials.org/results/04Rnd6.pdf
  8. Thats a fair monitor thas got, bet thi could use it as a ruler
  9. That would be a rubber in the UK!! BR, why would you be useing a rubber on your monitor
  10. I think everyone likes to save a bob or two, but it doesn't look good for the site when you have a front page of dealers etc then you go to the forums to learn how you can avoid going to the dealer to save $$$$ Just a bit tacky in my book. Or does it make some feel good that they think they have pulled a fast one and need to post the fact to feel good?
  11. Behold the power of a sponsored rider!! when Gary rode Sherco many in that area bought what the local top man was riding, now Gary is on Beta, it's popularity has grown around Fortwilliam. Gary must be worth a bit more sponsorship if you ask me
  12. Never seen it! only wish I could, the fact It's been a sell-out the past nine years, goes to show they are doing something right. I don't get chance to see anything indoors of that caliber, and seldom get to see the top riders outdoors.
  13. I was at a store the other day and a fellow walked up to my van because it has Bultaco slapped on the sides, he gave me his number and told me he had a 74 sherpa 350 for sale and a spare parts bike asking $1200 US for both, I said I would pass the info on. Location Gresham Oregon. James Lucas, ph# 503-936-7291
  14. Looks like scoring the gymnastics at the Olympics is like scoring a world round What they need is professional judges
  15. All the factory rigs will be up there in May, it would be cool to run one the sunday after the ssdt, I would stay to watch and test a few
  16. Good on ya Dave, By using the PNTA rounds for a classic series we could maybe attract a few more out of the woodwork, riders of Steve's and my ability should have no problem riding twin shockers in the Advanced class, and the morning lines should open a few doors for the old TL125 crew. All this would do is add a little bit of paperwork to events that are in place and well known. What ever happened to four lads four bikes two running two iffy two sleeping bags and a case of beers setting off at midnight fri night to go to the pnta rounds, it's still the cheapest motor sport on the planet, look at Billy D, he sets off to the other side of the USA with $10 in his pocket and still manages to get home with $8.99 change
  17. Governing bodies!! the fact is Steve, the FIM can only recognize the official governing body of each country, Road racing, MX, touring and all other motorcycle activities are involved and sadly trials is well down the pecking order. I see Wilson not getting on the team nothing more than a political move and nothing to do with his riding ability but more a way of getting the east side of Canada represented in the TDN, one small area of such a large country, BC!! has all the good riders. I think the answer for all this is in our own area, PNTA!! we have the best riding locations in the country many of the best riders, the PNTA series along with each individual club within the PNTA group we have an option to ride an event every weekend, no other place in Canada or the US has that option. Now what we need to do is expand those options even more, with a PNTA classic/vintage series of five two day rounds and a true youth series championship, keep in mind the area we are talking about is a lot larger than most countries who dominate the trials world. Steve, why frustrate and burn yourself out when everything you need is on your own doorstep, the governing bodies run the nationals how they see fit and choose the teams the same way, they also look very foolish pulling moves like they have in their choice of TDN team which led to withdrawing the whole team. We can participate in US or Canadian nationals if and whenever we want without burning bridges, let them get on with it and let us worry about our own neck of the woods, because the grass is greener on this side of the fence in this case.
  18. Hi Dan, I did see ray coming in on the old bike fri, all seemed to be fine but never got a chance to talk with him as we were just about to leave. Has you say best way for kids to improve is ride more events against each other, it does look on the up over here, all we have to do is build it and they will come.
  19. Needs to be!! seld him a old bugger last time Looks like another rear shock on the market http://www.trialscomp.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=384 I have no problems with the stock unit, but I'm not a fat old bugger like Dabster.
  20. It belongs to Bruce Bolander and wife, the back third of the trailer has room for ten bikes or more, it was full of team New Mexico's bikes for the event. The rear electricly operated seat slides down into a big double bed, all polished wood and mood lighting inside, it is quite the pimp mobile, the two 75 gallon side mounted fuel tanks do save time on those pesky fuel stops, but I did notice it didn't have a toilet in the cab so you could drive for a week none stop but you would be in pain Retail price on the truck alone is 90 odd thou, think I'll stick to the old taco van, bit rich for my blood that baby.
  21. If I had asked him to have a go at this rock he wouldn't of gone near it.
  22. Wood and leather, remote stereo so you don't need to get away from the cold ale to turn the tunes up.
  23. Tired of that cramped feeling when driving to trials? THEN GO BIG
