A simple question, what areas of fitness and strength should I be working on in regards benefiting my trials ?

Core and legs certainly won't hurt...

I Know that Toni Bou does Aerobics, for his body flexibility, which is a very important factor in Trials, So that may be a good place to start. Or just go to the Gym & try a bit of everything.

Core ? I'd rather stick needles in my eyes

Yoga for balance and flexibility, aerobics for endurance and weights for strength. But, don't forget nothing gets you in shape for riding better than riding.

go practicing, set out a mix of hard sections, ride them till you start to tire then you'll know which are your weakest areas to work on.

I have just realized that 20 rollies a day doesn't help much......obviously not enough, so I tried 30 but it seems worse, not sure what else to do ?

A balanced appraoch of course is always essential its no good just smoking more you need to drink brag go to as many parties music festivals and pubs as possible.

Sex and drugs and rock & roll made me hair fall out

on me bike I wobble like hell but still I get obout.

Any weather, anywhere helmet on don't show no hair

Every section me knees just creak

, me arms are like elastic, but me bike has every tweak

I realize that one doesn't rhyme but what can you expect at 59

Try some press ups have a fag

Watch the line of a good old lag

Drink some sugar feel alive

line it up and get me five

Dont get angry show some class

be polite and kiss some ass

sorry about that I got carried away ...perhaps we could make up a trials anthem, put a scratch band together there must be othe muso trials types out there back yo topic; The one yime I ever tried any training (for the scottish) I ended up with tennis elbow which took several years to get over so I agree with plan of ride ride ride.
