Answer to the last quiz – John Shirt Snr on the Majesty – a bike that he and Mick Andrews designed hence the name MA (Mick Andrews) JES (John E Shirt) TY ( Trial Yamaha) – A few got it – Brett, Bob, Pete Varey and Neil and Harlow.

Quiz today – Guess who.

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

It appears that we were not the only Trials event that experienced poor weather last weekend, as the FIM Round in Japan was a real mud bath. No need to tell you who won!!

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

I see Ryon Young has been Inducted into the American Motorcycle Hall of Fame !! Great news and well deserved. – Here he is celebrating on his TRS.

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

I saw this post from a time when the no stopping rules were really enforced at the Scottish Six Day trial – I suspect they might do this again for 2026 – no more “Momentary stops” – they are still feeling the effects from the Raga incident this year.

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

Looking ahead I believe there is a Trial in Squamish this weekend, then a bit of a pause for us until the Fall event in the Shuswap.

Of course we hope everybody gets lots of riding in with warmer weather and hopefully no forest fires ( Don’t forget that Spark Arrestor)

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

And Finally here is a pic somebody took of me last Saturday explaining to the riders all about the Outlaw Trial.

The one below is Sunday morning, doing the same Introduction – Saturday I’m wearing the SSDT Cap Sunday the Trials Guru VIP cap both very rare.
