Answer to the last quiz – Max King a UK writer and Trials enthusiast – He put out a great book in the early 1950’s on Trials riding, that I read over a few times, as a young lad – talked about technique on cambers and dead leaves etc as I recall.

John Kitchener was first in from the UK and followed by our usual bloggers, Pete Varey, Harlow – Peter Legrove –

Quiz today who is this?

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

Emily posted this pic after a ride up North someplace -on another of her adventures. – dirty face.

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

I took this pic of Sammy on our TRS – at a show he did at Blackfoot Park in Calgary -I remember it was a very hot and they were running a hard enduro on the day.

Below you see a famous Aqueduct at Fron – near where we lived in North Wales – a marvel of engineering from the past, that has a canal running over the top of the River Dee in the valley below. It is used by canal boats and tourists on a regular basis. ( Of course when we lived there we thought nothing of it)

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

Nice to see Jesse of TRS USA with the kids at the NATC National – he did well to keep Rising Sun Imports going after the sad loss of his Uncle, Jim Snell.

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

This old pic just popped up of myself riding a section we had at Summerland years ago on one of my favorite Beta Evo 200’s – the section featured all the basics, tight turns, cambers, and climbs. – You can tell by the old gear I’m wearing NZI helmet- XC clothing etc that it was many years ago.
