Answer to the last quiz – Mick Andrews – Mick often rode different bikes in the Pre-65 Scottish plus of course also raced a lot of vintage Scrambles. – Our usual crew got it – Brett, Bob, Harlow & Pete Varey.

Quiz today is a bit different – check out the people watching under the TRS rider at the Italian round – three should be recognized??

So after watching some of the video clips from day one in Italy – I must say the sections looked to be more like what we think Trials should be – not ALL hopping & bopping and man made. – obviously very difficult and amazing riding by the top guys, but great to see they even had an old fashioned “Camber” section which caught out most ( They don’t practice that) – The water sections were great. – nice to see George Hemingway on top again in the 125 class on his factory Beta. In fact it was an all Beta podium.

==========================================

It has just been announced the USA will be hosting a World FIM Trial in 2025 – not sure of the location at this point. – It remains to be seen if this will happen. – Will there ever be another World Trial in Canada? Not likely –

Meanwhile back at the ranch – anybody know these two dudes?

So today being Father’s Day – we think that most families will be enjoying time with their family – weather is a bit “Iffy” in the valley but I don’t think anybody is complaining after all the fire scares we have had.

We will likely be heading up to the Shuswap to spend the day with our daughter & Son in law at their nice trailer home near Scotch Creek ( Luckily spared from the big fires)

We heard from Peter in OZ – he always clicks onto our blog – tomorrow he will fly back to the UK for a family visit.
