Waynio Posted August 21, 2005 Report Share Posted August 21, 2005 yo quoted me on it aust............... so which part of the quot was you qouting???and had organisers contacted members about it????? as it happened last year too when peoples names were put down, but not contacted........... thats all why i questioned???i even asked akrigg about it as i had been talking to him about how good it was last year and asked if he was doing it and if he knew what was going on. so your posts aust "trying" to flame something iv said then bumming "HA F**KING HA" which you will know about.......... just calm yourself down i only asked a question????it was then YOU who had to quote me on what i said if danny had of said the organisers have given me this then it would have been nice to know so people can get in touch with people about it. so if akrigg wants to go and stuff and then gets told the week before what would happen????it would be quite difficult to organise in such a short space of time.

Mike Poyzer @ Onza Posted August 23, 2005 Report Share Posted August 23, 2005 I apologise to any riders mentioned here as riding who are not aware of it. Invitations are going out this week and I am afraid somebody in the show organisation has jumped the gun. We hope that all riders who are invited will accept as it will be a better competition than last year at a much better venue and will be great showcase for taking Trials to a much bigger audience.

Waynio Posted August 23, 2005 Report Share Posted August 23, 2005 sounds like fun B) :P it all looked extremly well set up last year some quality stuff. i just thort that it was all the UCI people that got invites???? thats what had dazzled me a little bit. altho chris is a bit stealth on the old UCI.

Tony Harrison Posted August 23, 2005 Report Share Posted August 23, 2005 Bumming? No, Wayne just has friends that's all. Besides, I can't think of any rider I'd like to see unleashed right now more than Akrigg. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted August 23, 2005 Report Share Posted August 23, 2005 I've edited the original post so the names are spelt right, just to please everyone. I don't really get how Waynio was 'bumming' either, but there we go. Anyway, this is a News thread about this show, not a "Dig myself a really big hole by talking crap" thread B) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
