Ducko Posted June 8, 2005 Report Share Posted June 8, 2005 I really want to get there Wayne, just trying to fix a few show dates this week to free up the Sunday, i have heard though that MTB is on Saturday (which i definitely can't make) if i can sort the Sunday then i might have to comp it up on a 20-inch for the first time in 10 years. Whatever, i am doing my best to come and be part of it. Wow me on a 20-inch, that really would be comedy worth seeing, i stopped riding them for good reason! Martyn. ← was it anything to do with being fat? :)" just joking :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waynio Posted June 8, 2005 Report Share Posted June 8, 2005 hey thats cheeky :P hehe. he stopped probably due to 20" having small wheels :P ye would be great to see you up there 26" or 20" mart it really wouldnt matter to me! it would just be great seeing one of my fave riders up there!!!!i answered a question of late and couldnt mention your name due to it not being confirmed that you would participate! but yours would have been top of the list. Top bloke!!!! Waynio........................ ye more and more people we get to help the smoother the event will go and you will be doing the whole Bike Trial sport good and supporting it too. Hopefully for us to be able to hold another one the year after :) :P" :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waynio Posted June 9, 2005 Report Share Posted June 9, 2005 i personally hope that this event will get more riders into the natural and competition side of trials as i feel it is decreasing at the mo'. as for riders i hope all the british team do well and kick some arse, i would be riding myself but as always i cant afford it craig that 1st paragraph i couldnt agree with you more on!!!!!!!we need the competition trials scene alot bigger in this country to do numerous things for the sport. SUCH as getting it more recognised and possibility of getting TV coverage like the porthcawl trophy did!!! this will then when your all out street riding not get told to stop doing something thats dangering other members of the public as most police and people who stop you and bollok you think you are just a thug and a danger to society!!!!! when we know were not! waynio................... the more people see it the more they will appreciate and watch it with respect and not a poor attitude towards us.........just my opinion on the matter.

Ducko Posted June 9, 2005 Report Share Posted June 9, 2005 as said the other main problem is affording these events especially for small 17 year old boys called craig who have to travel from wales :) i had to ride the last tykes with no insurance as i had problem with that :"> woops. im not sure what licenses id need to enter the world round? also if anyone knows how much they cost etc :) bottom line: anyone who has never been to a trial competition before i think maybe attend a tykes or ymsa round and see how yo like it? there great fun i think and test your riding ability well :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crazy_gap girl Posted June 9, 2005 Report Share Posted June 9, 2005 i think it would be great IF all of the brit riders riding there could go up there one day or for a few days and chill out together and really get into the swing of getting along with each other and having a blast. even loads of other people coming too just to get in the trials mood and see how big this event organised by Barbara Wright and Co. i got asked a question yesterday by someone and was extrmly like "i wish i could" and the response was " you really could!" iv been out with ben savage a couple of times and have to admire how he will set out a few sections and ride them under 2 minutes every time and as clean as possible, that sort of commitment just makes me even more thirsty to ride the Cyclo trials sport!!!!! Waynio....................... i even think with it being brought up on this forum by one of i think nearly everyones favourite or idol rider that it will hopefully encourage alot more people to turn up to the event to support the UK riders. i think guessing the uk rider list as were allowed 40, would maybe be: Akrigg Hawzee Ashton???? come on mart we all want to see you there too!!!well i really would. Ben Savage Ben Slinger Jordi Cook Gav Bedford Andrei Burton Peter Rew Matt Scriven Scott Robbens Jordan Tagg Chris Light Chris Leeson Barry Huskin Rick Eyre Chris Walker Danny Butler??? i know he has been doing the BIU british rounds????may be he'll do world rounds too? Ali C Aust Wright Rob Poyzer Danny Smith? Aran Cook? Ste Petty The 2 Morgans Young lad who rides for revell (forgot his name) who off here does the british rounds??? and did them last year and got good results? as there the people that are popping into my head....who else is wanting to do it too? i would love to do the world round in england and the others in spain andorra etc etc, but just lack the funds for the abroad rounds, wouldnt mind saving to be able to afford to go next year though. i think if you look at the list and some of the british talent in that list could easily be a winner especially on home soil. Waynio.......................... ← dont forget mee Barbara really wants me to ride.. and i think i'd be missing out on a hell of alot if i didnt go :P plus Lois wont be bored and be a likkle team of girls for the UK :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone turning up on bikes (except entered riders) will be asked to leave them in a "bike park" just inside the entrance gate. No riding will be allowed at all on Saturday, but on Sunday after the competition has officially closed (estimated around 5.30pm) and we've all left, then it's up to you! I still need some observers, time-keepers and score-keepers by the way ... any offers? (I need to know now ... not on the day!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
