August 20, 200719 yr And a few of us were thinking of going to Spa on our bikes for a blast, staying in Malmedy.........so thanks for the early warning Andy 4 Stroke wins WTC bet a certain Belgian World Champion would never see that again along with a few others. Mr Raga crying.................whats new!!!!!!!
August 20, 200719 yr Author Mr. Ragas comment :- '' Hijo de puta '' Yes, I can imagine that word was used several times when he heard the news...
August 20, 200719 yr Well, well done Mr T Bou a well deserved title a bit of a bugger for all those who have booked ferries and acomadation is there anything else to do in belguim at that time of year ?
August 20, 200719 yr Author Well, well done Mr T Bou a well deserved titlea bit of a bugger for all those who have booked ferries and acomadation is there anything else to do in belguim at that time of year ? Go tour the Battle of the Bulge places. Bastogne, Malmedy etc. That's what I'd do, but not everybody's cup of tea!

August 20, 200719 yr Bou is a very well deserving champion and was as good as certain to win anyway. But it must be equally frustrating for him. Surely, you would want to be crowned champion after actually riding a trial wouldn't you? p.s. My mate at work reckons 'Bou' might be an old Belgian name!
August 20, 200719 yr Stella, Juliper, Kriek there's a few good reasons to stay in Belgium. Well done to Toni, a deserved and worthy champion.
August 20, 200719 yr On the bright side that should see Belgium dropped from organising WTC events for a couple of years.......... wonder if anyone fancies running a world round in england/scotland/wales then we could have two british rounds like the old days wahey !
August 20, 200719 yr I feel soory for the Mighty Atom, only one chance to have a go at the worlds best instead of two this year, and only one chance to see what he'l be up against next year.
August 21, 200719 yr fair point, but at least a celebration at hawkstone can't be bettered! Ross unless they change the rules ssignificantly(they can't do that as well?) is a definate second regardless so he could join wiggy on the 125's in Andorra. By my calculations, wiggy needs 6th or higher to gaurentee second in Junior wtc, which means a british one two, also think haslam could have improved to third had the Spa round remaind. Lets hope that someone somewhere in the FIM is p****d off enough to forget belgium for a few years, we'll see.........
August 21, 200719 yr Author Lets hope that someone somewhere in the FIM is p****d off enough to forget belgium for a few years, we'll see......... I wouldn't complain about that. The circuit is awesome, but I've said for ages there's far too much man-made stuff in Belgium. Bring back Germany. It was a bit of a one-horse town, but Gefrees was a great round (nothing to do with that mahoosive beer tent they had, honest!)

It was a bit of a one-horse town, but Gefrees was a great round (nothing to do with that mahoosive beer tent they had, honest!) Gefree's had beer tents all over the course. I would happily go back there. Whilst it was always on the cards for a Bou win, I pity the riders for whom the two remaining rounds were an opportunity to move up the rankings. Dib's is one rider who springs to mind, is it still possible for him to break into the top six? Anyone know the reason why Belgium was cancelled at relatively short notice. You expect this type of thing from Octagon in the indoor but not outdoor....
August 21, 200719 yr Good to see the rocky world of trial's is alive and kicking. What no back up what if there was 3 rider's going into the last round level pegging?
