Robq7653 Posted January 6, 2020 Report Share Posted January 6, 2020 oh my god I want these magazines so badly. Back in the day as a child I cut bits out for school projects and my wall. How I regret it now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JD™ Posted January 6, 2020 Report Share Posted January 6, 2020 I remember studying those Trials Academy pages so much (although I seem to remember they were also released as a stand-alone mag at some point?) Anyone who’s seen me ride knows it didn’t help, maybe I should’ve ridden more than read about it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But then we probably all have happy memories of our earlier years. I definitely see 1998 to 2002 as a kind of golden era. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah that was my kind of time, finished school for exam leave in late spring 99 and spent every single day out riding rather than revising. Didn't really pay off though as I was still shit but having fun 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ed Tongue, Jeff Lenosky, Peter Kraus, Chris Akrigg, Ryan Leech, JJ Gregorowicz, September 2000. I've always thought this must have been the best group ride EVER. All on the 'Contact' video for those who missed it first time round. 8 mins for UK footage. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JD™ Posted January 30, 2020 Report Share Posted January 30, 2020 This thread always makes me regret throwing away a collection I had from issue 1 (my Dad had started the collection) all the way through to whatever issue it would’ve been in mid 2004. Got myself into a crap situation accommodation wise and had to make some drastic cuts, that was one of them... Doubt I’d have kept buying them all the way through to now but all those old issues would’ve been handy now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
US_BenR Posted January 30, 2020 Report Share Posted January 30, 2020 These old mags make me nostalgic, as does Contact. I think I was first exposed to trials around 2000, so pretty much the same magic that brought me into the sport twenty years ago. I was 10 years old back then, so pretty damn young. Sadly, I think at 29...I'm the youngest rider I know of stateside. There's no fresh blood anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyhow, if anyone has some "Search for a Trials Star" from 2005 or 2006 that would be great! It was myself, Shrewsbury, Fatmike, Nick Manning. There was also an article following the finals following the bike show... Andy P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt24. Posted April 15, 2021 Report Share Posted April 15, 2021 @Tony Harrison - wondering if you can help! I’m on a nostalgic hunt to find out which issue was my first edition of MBUK I ever bought. It involved this euro road trip vhs free on the front - I’ve had a look through 2002 issues and unless it was Jan / Feb it wasn’t one of those. I think it is 2001? Would you know?
