Bigman Posted February 11, 2006 Report Share Posted February 11, 2006 Realy looking forward to this, looks like there will be an awsome turn out.....Like Mike said he is staying at my house tonight, then we will probably try to leave at around 8 tomorow to make sure we get there at a good time........Riding will be dependant on how long we stay at the bar tonight Sara Cox is playing Adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sam Oliver Posted February 12, 2006 Report Share Posted February 12, 2006 QUOTE CYCOLOGYHey Guys,Most recent news as the day of the event is gradually dawning on us.Danny Butler recently contacted me, so the new Judging line up stands at Craig Lee Scott, Danny Holroyd and Danny Butler, with the chance of Danny Butler doing a demo after the comp.It went 126mile & no comp, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spunkey_monkey_boy Posted February 12, 2006 Report Share Posted February 12, 2006 It went 126mile & no comp, what do you mean no comp? they didn't cancel it due to the weather i hope???whatever happened go easy on the guys who organised it, regardless of whether it was great or shit they still put a hell of alot of time and effort into organising it which is more than most TF users can be bothered to do...

Stan Shaw Posted February 12, 2006 Report Share Posted February 12, 2006 (edited) Basically the course wasn't upto scratch, was abit unsafe in places. With it pissing down the course was fairly dodgy to say the least! TartyBikes had a beast stand indoors. The riders who turned up just messed about on the course for free.Alot of riders had gone off to find street by 2pm, leaving me, martin, damon watson, ben lee to ride the course, so we changed it around and got some decent riding in.Better luck next time.. Oh yeah, was really good meeting up with everyone, and seeing some new people. Edited February 12, 2006 by cultiv8ed stan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCOTTY___ Posted February 13, 2006 Report Share Posted February 13, 2006 Here you go guys Biff and craig went down on the Saturday, to expect the course materials to arrive and for us to put it all up. Half of the materials we ordered and payed for didnt arrive, all we got was the pallets, cars and skips and trailor. The weather was really bad aswell, and we hope to have carried on setting the course up in the earlier hours of sunday morning but due to bad weather we put it as a call off....and had the back up idea of bands etc...Danny Butler then rings me saying he cant make it also..as he has sold a lesson on ebay. so we had no judging...In the end we made an announcement just for the riders to ride the course as they wish, we charged no entry fee as there was no comp.All in all was abit of a disaster, but most riders seemed happy with just riding the course having the materials there to mess around with. Biff originally left the team earlier in the year so it was managed by somebody else not knowing much about trials etc.....as he had a change of college courses.Hope this helps cear things up Craig...!

Anyway Tom were was you! no worries man i knew you weren't going to but last time i cancelled a comp there was alot of slagging off going on that wasn't needed and i didn't want these guys to get the same.i was flat on my back in bed, i've got a seriously damaged back i'm on very strong pain killers and cant do anything more energetic than make a cup of tea at the moment...however light at the end of the tunnel - i've been told i'm alowed to go ride the xc bike gentley to see if my back can handle it and if all goes well i'll be back on the trials bike within a month or so...

Mark W Posted February 13, 2006 Report Share Posted February 13, 2006 If Biff's apparently left the company already, I'm guessing they probably won't bother doing a trials event again? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
