Scotty Evil1 Posted October 25, 2012 Report Share Posted October 25, 2012 I was up in the loft the other day and I found my old folders full of results. Hundreds and Hundreds of them dating from from 1995 before I started up untill around 2008 when most events done everything online. It brought back some amazing memories and I think I lot of people on facebook shared those thoughts. I thought I would post some up here, I was only going to post up a couple but got a bit carried away. These ones are from EBTC Club and team trial events from 1995-2002 Hope you enjoy these, I have the british championship to put up next if you are interested 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake. Posted October 25, 2012 Report Share Posted October 25, 2012 The only one I recognize is Eddie Tongue... Only cause I saw an 'oldschool' bike named Ashton Eddie tongue. Funny how everyone seems to ride the same brands back then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JD™ Posted October 26, 2012 Report Share Posted October 26, 2012 The great thing about those is just how many people were at comps - are there still as many now? Gutted I can't see myself on any of those though, I lost all my results sheets a long time ago. There were only 5 or so I think... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trials26 Posted October 26, 2012 Report Share Posted October 26, 2012 Brilliant! Kurt Brain amongst the others! Adam Burns, Holroyd. Also was surprised to see Vincent on there.. I'd also imagine monty would love to see results sheets looking like that today haha crazy! Cheers for sharing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Swales Posted October 26, 2012 Report Share Posted October 26, 2012 Ha. First my birthday making me feel old, now this! I recognise the majority of those names. Cool to see Comas and Bou in there too. The great thing about those is just how many people were at comps - are there still as many now? Not often, unfortunately. We still get high turnouts at most events, but not like it was back then. One of the drawbacks of the sport getting bigger and diversifying I guess.

Stan Shaw Posted October 26, 2012 Report Share Posted October 26, 2012 Awesome topic. Toni Bou riding in Intermediate! I think my first was around 2002-03, but I can't remember, will have to find out. However I do remember just watching Dani Comas dominate everything. I like the regional team setup they have going. Will see if I can find my old results.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted October 26, 2012 Report Share Posted October 26, 2012 The great thing about those is just how many people were at comps - are there still as many now? In those EBTC results Leon posted there are over 100 names riding that comp. EBTC aren't doing comps any more. Should give you some idea The only one I recognize is Eddie Tongue... Only cause I saw an 'oldschool' bike named Ashton Eddie tongue. For someone from my generation, that's really weird haha. Eddie Tongue was a massive deal back then!

Robin M S/c Posted October 27, 2012 Report Share Posted October 27, 2012 I just have to comment that I'm mentioned in the team trial on the expert route and Toni Bou was scared so rode the intermediate route!!! Lol. Keep telling Adam that but he doesn't believe me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
