Answer to the last quiz – It was Gordon Jackson again trying out a Honda “Tiddler” Trial bike – not sure what that was all about – but Brett figured it out.

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

Saturday I decided to spend time fitting the Xtrack kit to the 2024 TRS RR 250 – it takes a while from out of the box- but once on and all the bolts etc in place, changing it back to a Trials bike only takes about 15-20 minutes. – This makes it a “Two in one” bike and ideal for the shorter rider who is looking for a bike that they can reach the ground, if just wanting all the assets of the Trials engine. – Did you know that back in 1974 /75 – the TY 250 was one of the most popular “Trail” bikes out there, because it was light, torquey AND had a seat. ( only about 40% were ever ridden in competition)

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

As this is the Canada day long weekend, we are busy with family stuff so no riding – I bumped into Olivier at the Store early yesterday, he told me his lad Jeremy is now as tall as he is and now rides Dad’s Evo 200 as well as racing enduro.

UPDATE It’s pouring with rain today so might be a good day to watch the golf!! Did you know we sell WULF rain gear!!

A great poster of a time when “National” Trials were held in England and riders had to qualify to ride this one.

Below a time when “Scrambles” involved a bit more than “Big Air”

QUIZ – Who is this rider in big trouble?
