that NBR dude Posted September 3, 2006 Report Share Posted September 3, 2006 I decided to miss out today! Couldn't be bothered to get all covered in clay. Sounds like it was pretty shit anyway. At least I didnt miss much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Jones Posted September 3, 2006 Report Share Posted September 3, 2006 I 5'ved the first 3 sections, then got 3 dabs and 3 again, then James and Dave were talking about retiring because of the clay clogging everything. Looking at James' bike made me laugh he seemed to have 30inch wheels with the added mud and clay.I decided to try and finish anyway which seemed to spur them on to complete the course . I think Dave and I were the last to finish, and because we had taken so long the sections had started to dry so a big advantage for us.It must have taken the same amount of time to clean my bike as to ride the trial.I would do it again though...

monkeyseemonkeydo Posted September 3, 2006 Report Share Posted September 3, 2006 I was seriously considering giving up after the first lap but reckoned I'd just be annoye with myself if I stopped so decided to stick it out. Wouldn't really say it was a fun day but of course I'd do it again! Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
