December 5, 200916 yr Does anyone read print anymore? Shan recently added Enduro to the title of Trials Comp, and I think the paper looks stronger than ever. Now all the top Enduro fans now can see why the trials guys are so good. Plus us trials guys can read up on all the top Enduro guys. Talk about a Win/Win for us dual sport riders. Well done, Shan. Well done.
December 5, 200916 yr Puts him in a competitive space with Paul Clipper's "Trail Rider Magazine", at least as far as east coast events, Trail Rider had a nice article about the Vermont National in it this month. Edited December 5, 200916 yr by Dan Williams
December 5, 200916 yr I dont have their web site handy but im sure someone could put it up. www.TandENews.com

Well done. It really is a perfect combination as the crossover skill set between Trials and Enduro riding is common. Many of our Trials club riders come from the Enduro group and a lot ride both sports. I've been involved in the Enduro machinery side for many years and have volunteered at several events. Watching Trials Pro's ride is pretty neat and I love it, but you also ought to see one of the top Enduro guys thread a bike between trees in a tight switchback trail. Their skill and talent is amazing. Darrell has done a nice job on the website, you should check it out. Can't wait till the next T&E comes out! Jon
December 7, 200916 yr A great move in my opinion. As an enduro rider of course I'm all for it, but I really think the crossover marketing will help the publication to grow and bring more riders to both venues.
December 9, 200916 yr This is a great publication! And, nice work Darrell on the website...looks like the Dec 2009 cover is up! Since Shan, as a motojournalist, is always interviewing people, I thought it might be fun to put him on the other side of the fence. We did a little 10 questions session this weekend and I was able to get it on the site in between coughs...hope you get a kick out of it, too: http://www.trialssource.com/2009/interview.../shanmoore.html Mike Edited December 9, 200916 yr by MikeID

Shan is one of the most respected, admired and well liked people in the Trials community, and with good reason. His affection for the sport and the people who participate in it is obvious to all who come in contact with him. As the Enduro community will soon find out, Shan is a real friend of the sport and the expansion of the paper to include them will really contribute to their experience. I for one really enjoy the Enduro coverage. Jon
December 10, 200916 yr That is just too cool! Shan is a great fellow! Always friendly and full of life!
February 8, 201016 yr I have a subscription and I look forward to it every month. As a new trials guy I go straight to the Ryan Young training section. I wish I could go back to lesson 1 though, I didn't start my subscription until lesson #9 I think Edited February 8, 201016 yr by Fred1956

February 8, 201016 yr I have a subscription and I look forward to it every month. As a new trials guy I go straight to the Ryan Young training section. I wish I could go back to lesson 1 though, I didn't start my subscription until lesson #9 I think Ryan is a top notch teacher. It's a great paper except for the guy who writes the technical articles, I hear he's a pud......... Jon

Trials Training Center Tutorials
February 9, 201016 yr I think anything that Trials can do to get some eyes on it is great, Enduro gets noticed more then trials so anything that gets them looking at us too is great. GOOD MOVE
February 9, 201016 yr I don't know about that Jon...He seems wise to me... Jon, On another note, & for you guys in the NE Okla/NW Ark area, I've been practicing my figure 8's and basic skills right in/around the shop area, so on Sunday I rewarded myself with a trip through the woods at Mary's, have you ever been out there? I know I'm just a newbie but she has a lot of creek bed/bank that would be great for play/practice or maybe even an event if a club was looking for a new site. I spent an hour and a half just playing on a 100 ft section of rock steps and dirt banks that wore me out. Nothing like Tish, but maybe a Scipio?? Surely with 375 acres to work with (+ the Houchens have land adjoining and 2 trials bikes in the family) we could come up with something. I have no knowledge or experience laying sections but I can string tape and trim limbs with direction. Edited February 9, 201016 yr by Fred1956
