Nice video from sergio... Jeroni Fajardo out playing on the Beta Evo.

Word was that the Beta Evo rear mudguards were made of carrots!! Most people seem to say that they snap if you so much as brush past somethings solid... well this is what happened when Burners flipped his new Evo back down a step and into the trees ... click the image to see larger view. The mudguard sprang back into shape, with not even a crease or stretch of the bolt holes!!

Ross, Tony, Colin and Karl joined me up at Kilkenny for a play on Sunday... only the second time I have been up there for a year. The sun shone all day and we had nearly 5 hours of fun. We were joined during the day by a couple of other groups and I have to apologise to the group of lads who we encouraged to try the rock face climbs... hopefully after we left you didn't go too mad and break anything!!!
Ross rides the class above me in events so it was great to have someone to push me a bit, we set out sections and worked through them together. It was nice to learn and raise my game a bit to see if i could be the first to clean the hard bit.
Karl is coming on strong and his confidence has gone sky high... Colin, his Dad, was amazed at things he tried. Time for him to try some events i think.

On bank holiday Monday Rob, Ben and myself popped down to the Wessex Trial biketrial event to watch. Ben is without a bike at the mo so I lent him my Echo and it was nice to see it doing some fairly big stuff... more than it with me on it!!! Several of the UK's best riders were there and all present gave a great show of skill...I always espeicially enjoy watching Tim Steadman on his pashley as he will just have a bash at anything, and usually do it! ..I have put some photos in a gallery HERE.

Heath and Colin rode the Kingswood MCC club trial recently, and what a brilliant trial it was. The weather was perfect, as were the sections and Heath had a new Xispa 250 to play on!! Colin was very nervous during the first lap but started to calm down in the 2nd, and had some good rides on the root and wild garlic covered hillsides. We both lost silly 5's but were just happy to be having fun. Use the link to the Xispa 250r test ride, and Results of the trial will be on the Kingswood MCC website.   Scott Anderson took a good amount of photos during the day at most of the sections... his gallery can be viewed HERE. ..Thanks to the club and all involved for a top event, and to Pete for the loan of the Xispa.

Busy time recently out on the bikes! Graeme, Ben, Rob and Heath had 4 hours in the sun on Sunday..Images. We also had a play for 3 hours last friday evening.. images here ... and then Scott Anderson and Heath had 4 hours on the motorcycles up at Kilkenny.. images here...
And Heath has found the bike he wants... the new Koxx RedSky.. Picture Here.

There is something so cool being able to ride a motorcycle in much the same way as you can ride a cycle trials bike... From the brilliant slow motion Cabestany Video's (Here )  to this one of the world indoor guys warming up before Girona. Video by Sergio. and then a bit of natural riding, Fujinami practicing.
...just a shame there is no way in a million years that I would be able to do any of it..!!

A great day out in the mud..!! Squancy, Ben and myself took the camera for a walk around the Southern Experts trial this weekend. Heavy rain on Friday night made the ground almost waterlogged and with near on 100 pairs of wheels doing 3 laps on it the sections proved extremely slippery... not that you would have noticed if you had followed Alexz, Ross or Sam around mind you!! Here are the first batch of photos.. Southern Experts Gallery. ...updated with 87 images now.
SVMC Website now has a report and the full results ready for download.

Matt Liberatore from TrialZone in Virginia, USA, has recently undertaken a full test on the 2009 GasGas 250 Pro and has sent along the final draft before it appears in the USA Trials Competition magazine... go to the test.

Alexz Wigg's dad, Julian, has a new project bike to be playing with... a lovely TLR Honda. He had it hidden away in the back of his van at the BVM test day, and when you see it you will realise why he wasn't keen to get it out in the thawing cotswold mud just for a little play... CLICK HERE
