Group,

Well it was typical Trials weather. Rained hard until about 2 hours before the start then got really hot during the Trial. Sections seemed fair, lot of different layouts and challenges. I don't think anyone got better than a 5 on number 3. It had a steep up hill, that with the rain, had turned to several inch deep mud. There were several places where we had to cross or turn in the Crosscountry Trails (the Crosscountry had been held just prior to our event) and these were very tricky, the mud was as slick as frog snot. Biggest problem was how tired everyone got from fighting the wet conditions.

My Bantam ran very well for most of the event. Did a plug in at one point and then the kick start lever broke during the second round. Had a spare with me and was able to replace it and finish.

Good crowd, had a great time. I'll go back to this one again.

Alan,

I live about an hour from Devil's Ridge. I assume it was a vintage event. How many people showed up? I think the prez. of our club helped set this one up.....

Alan,

Yes this was vintage (AHRMA) event. I guess there were close to 50 riders. Trials was Friday, Sat and Sun they had a full motocross thing going.

Alan

Biff,

I will probably go to Marion in June and then to Mid-Ohio in July. I got the broken parts welded up yesterday, so at least I'm running again. I have ordered some parts from England and have an electrical 'issue' to address but besides that (well and a totally beat up body), I'm ready for the next one.

Was surprised that you and your dad weren't at Devils Ridge. Look forward to seeing you at Mid-Ohio.

Alan

See you at mid ohio then.
