May 24, 201214 yr Just got email from team Montesa minder friend.He says terrain is very large grippy rocks and dry but possible rain for weekend.Looks like a nice place for trials.JR
May 26, 201214 yr very tough, did it rain? From the photos I've seen so far, some rain, but not Japan-type rain.
May 26, 201214 yr You gotta hand it to Mr Bou that second lap would have been a joy to watch? The harder the trial the gap gets bigger, as Dabster said our brits 9 cleans between them and if it was wet and muddy people have said in the past our lads would fair better....................well it sure don't look like that? Some section modification will be done no doubt, but I fear the results will almost be a carbon copy of today?
May 26, 201214 yr There were a couple of showers and some drizzle but it wasn't too bad. One of the fives Bou had was a big off on a huge rock in section 4, Fuji also fived it. Forecast for tomorrow is dry weather
May 28, 201214 yr Day 1 I followed the top riders right round first lap and found the sections very intimidating, especially with the damp conditions. All riders seemed very nervous. Couple of very big offs were spectacular. Drizzling rain started as the top riders were at the huge up hill mega launch section 3 on the second loop. From this point on with a fresh moisture coating, Tony showed everyone why he has the number 1 plate. His second lap of 7 points would have been 2 as he had to race to the finish cards of section 13 and timed out. Raga Cabistani and Bou were the only riders to attempt this section on lap 2.

Jeez man, from the looks of the clip Andy put up, it was a bit of their moneys worth! Awesome stuff!
