OK so this is the day “After’ Trump day, and luckily there was some good golf from Pebble Beach, on Saturday, Rory MacIlroy and his buddy fellow Irishman Shane Lowery, put on quite a show in weather that would have had been better suited to riding a Trial. We have always thought that Golf, just like Trials is a “Head game” ———— ( With more money)
Answer to the last quiz – that man that few people seem to like Thierry Michaud – former world champ, and now head honcho at FIM.
Quite few got this – Neil Carter, Pete Varey, Brett, Bob and Harlow
Quiz for today. – We don’t know who this rider is – but the question is “What is that lever above the handlebar on the left side”

We had really icy roads in Vernon early Saturday, but no snow, unlike our friends on the West Coast ( Ha Ha)
Here is a nice rare pic from the Victoria Club grounds. I don’t have to tell you whose bike that is!!

Here is an old cutting sent us by Jamie McGregor -Sammy was definitely “The man” back then. -And he is still going strong at his motorcycle Museum at over 92. ( I wonder if he knows that other Irishman MacILroy?)

We have been preaching the Opti Gospel for a very long time now, as has this guy – Helmut is a bit older than me, but still sells Opti as his #1 Lubricant.

And just a reminder that the Wulf Clothing and other gear which we have been Importing from the UK since 1995, is likely the best quality and hard wearing on the market – plus it looks sharp, and is priced right!! email or call us if you have questions

It’s now eights years since Mountain Motorcycle became the Importer for TRS – here is a pic when they visited the Factory in Spain, and got the VIP treatment by old friend Jordi Tarres.

last night I clicked on the BVM video from the recent Lonsdale Trial in the UK- I have already seen another clip of this, but enjoyed the BVM video more perhaps, because it showed some “In between” section riding and showed Craig Talbot on the new 2025 TRS 300 Estart and his partner riding the Beta Evo 200 factory – Craig even took the win in the Clubman’s class on this first ride on the new bike.
It’s nice to see the Evo 200 doing well at UK Trials, as we are a big fan of this bike. – Check it out on YOU TUBE.
