Practise Evening on 11th July 6:30pm Dob Park all welcome contact Phyll for details 01924-403075

Tomorrow (Saturday) 2pm at Ian's Rocks near Blubberhouses. As usual we will have a Clubmans, 50/50 and Hard course along with a Conducted course for the Small Wheels.# Next Sunday (16th) is the annual trek to Brimham Rocks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! There is an 11am start on this one so go easy on saturday night. Again the course's will be the same.

Depends which way you normally come from but the Car Park is on the corner where the Road drops down into Silsden. You go in and buy a programme and you are in. The surprise is at least three "new" sections not in the normal Practise area. Where they are you'll just have to wait and see. (Nope not Emmotts or the land across the road).

Yep its on the 6th August. Entry is by the Car Park so the more you have in the car the cheaper it is? And this year we have a surpise for the riders!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I suspect we are waiting for Andy's return??

Big black one is the idle the other the Mix screw.

Entry details A & B Entry Details Or if link not workking go to the ACU web site and you'll find them under trials News. Entry Form here: Entry Form

Bracken Rocks are closed at the moment. Best contact Mansfield Maun as to when it will re-open.

Both Jim Lampkin and Dan Clark run Training courses as well. They run them thoughout the year so it's a little more convinient as they can run a one to one session as well as group sessions.

Used the Dave Cooper to get the Bike to the KYTC A&B Class National. 586 miles round trip!!!

Saw Killer Kendrew's new 3.2 at the Ripon Evening trial on Saturday evening. He seemed to be able to start it ok and commented it seemed "sharper" than the "old" model at the bottom end.

I've copied them down to you Andy, BDMC or Stuart can add their report later.

North Yorkshire Lad got a 3 month old one from Aire Valley Cycles for

I use the Iridium ones in NYL's too! They work a treat.

Nice to see Sam Beecroft-Penny doing so well! And I believe it's Danielle Whitham on the "D" class results, (Given the front page story we need to encourage our Young Lady riders!).

The usual mods are to block the two side vents and also the "drain" hole at the bottom of the airbox. We also bought another Filter which is supposed to be an improvement over the Gas Gas item. We haven't done these as the bike seemed to be ok without them.

Check under www.kytc.co.uk.

The way we go is to come off the M1 at Junction 36 and go down the A6195 to wards Wath. I think it's about 5 roundabouts down and you need to take the Wombwell turn signposted for the station. When you get to the Crossroads go straight across. This takes you on to Dovecliffe Road. This takes you alongside Wombwell Wood. The trial Venue is on the right about a mile up. If the Sections are close to the road you'll see them on the right. Either way It's a road on the right I think with some signs pointing to a Recycling site(I think that's what it is). As you go down the road hairpins left and the trial entrance is on the outside of that corner. Take direction from the officials as to where to park as it can be a bit tight.

Good News!! The observer was out today at the Centre Trial At Cowling. Looked to be enjoying himself from the (little) time I spent there.

Todays trial is at Cliffe Lane Cleckheaton NOT at Upper Green Farm as in TMX.

Me and NYL should be in attendence.

Looks like being just a little different this year!! Will have more news soon!

Nice one Andy!!

Yet again this topic has to be brought to the attention of riders. StuartC has a observer abused and insulted at a trial. Why!! because he has given a 5! I'm sorry but how do some riders expect Trials to continue in this climate. We are not Premiership footballers, the observer can be swayed if you ask but to abuse a volunteer especially in the conditions on Sunday is not permissable. I was out at West Leeds and due to problems couldn't take a position, however at Horsforth I was out there marking. Whenever I can I take a section which is difficult when My lad is attempting to climb to the hard route in only his fourth/fifth full year of riding I expect a little ribbing but some riders are to be honest taking the p1$$ expecting a clean to be marked when a five is clearly what they should have. At My age they tend not to argue, however when I am following NYL (slowly and usually in distress), I have felt the need to step in now and again. Fortunetly in the Yorkshire centre we do have experienced observers, Getting some to replace them in years to come may prove difficult if the attitude's StuartC's young observer came across persist. Chill out and remenber. If the observer gives you a 5 then your rivals probably will get one as well!!!!!! P.S. What hell Am I doing here on break night at this time!!!!!!!!!!!!

Interesting, In standard form I'd say the Gas Gas has a big edge over the Sherco normally but Wiggy's bike is something else. NYL's bike has a few mods that make it better than the Standard bike and it has shown in recent trials, (Despite niggling cooling problems). NYL has noted that the bike in the Photo's didn't look like the bike Alex normally uses so perhaps Louis gained ground on Alex because of that. Having said that I think the conbination is the key. The better the bike "feels" the more a good rider can "use" it.
