I'm going to come by and 'borrow' that 250 headlight for a while...

Looked at her, in the garage.......................she's good to go - oil/tyres/chain/pads all checked and ready to trial this weekend (weather permitting and snow cover)

This is a pic from Saturday. I haven't had a chance to get the pic uploaded till today. About 6 to 8 inches on the ground, which is about all the Sherco could handle. Still tons of fun!

Well, it all depends on my schedule for the next 6 months or so. Hopefully!

Looked for a manual for the Supertrial after not being able to figure out how to pop the seat off...

On the date of the OP question, the GG and I were the trialsmaster for our club event. The temperature at start time was 19degrees with a windchill of 7 degrees. The day before the event, when setting up the sections, it was 45 degrees.

I got the results for a the Xmas Trial today - I came 1st in my class,although there were only 3 Twinshock Clubman entries,and 22 riders in the event.I'm pretty pleased with my comeback.

Took the old GG out to my favorite spot and was promptly reminded of just how bad I suck at trials. Spent most of the time sacrificing my body to keep from scratching the bike up too bad, went home sore and cried myself to sleep.

Garthe · 12-15-2010, 10:39 PM

nothing...

brewtus · 12-16-2010, 05:33 AM

Got some new(er) handlebars for the Team TY. No more riding sections with Speedway bend bars!

That should screw up everybody's riding! Is bike maintenance in the Leagues rule book?

Yup. Right after Beer Drinking, chapters 2-97.

brewtus · 12-18-2010, 01:43 PM

And here they are.

Before-

and after the installation of some Domino Beta bars with 1.5 inches cut off each end-

I wasn't exaggerating with the "Speedway Bend" joke. This view is the same as if you are on the pegs-

Cool bend, though-

NOW we'll break the frame......
