What a great bike -that Beta &#8211; I had forgotten just how good these are, pulling the steep up-hills in 3rd, but with still enough torque that you could back off if needed. &#8211; Plus on the trail 4th and 5th gear was perfect. ( And still one gear to go) &#8211; The weather was great so Mike and I enjoyed a neat day out in the woods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/outlawtrials.com\/davesblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_3915.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10520\" srcset=\"https:\/\/outlawtrials.com\/davesblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_3915.jpg 600w, https:\/\/outlawtrials.com\/davesblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_3915-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>============================================<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We did see a few of these out on the trail today, so a reminder to keep an ear and eye open, because some of them are going way too fast and with no thought for anything coming in the opposite direction on narrow trails.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/outlawtrials.com\/davesblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_3912.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10522\" srcset=\"https:\/\/outlawtrials.com\/davesblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_3912.jpg 600w, https:\/\/outlawtrials.com\/davesblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_3912-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>===========================================<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Back at the ranch &#8211; we watched the last bit of the Ryder cup golf &#8211; seems  some of the yankee doodle crowds got pretty ugly to the Euro team.

Jeesh!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>==========================================<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although we have been singing the praises of the smaller capacity Trials models lately &#8211; this idea started way back in the UK, with the lightweight Villiers engine bikes, which was followed later by a lot of specials appearing with Japanese motors &#8211; here is Peter Gaunt on one of his Suzuki specials. Later of course Sammy Miller shocked the Trials World, by joining Bultaco, and as they say &#8220;The rest is History&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"517\" height=\"720\" src=\"https:\/\/outlawtrials.com\/davesblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Peter-Gaunt-on-the-wee-Suzuki.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10524\" srcset=\"https:\/\/outlawtrials.com\/davesblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Peter-Gaunt-on-the-wee-Suzuki.jpg 517w, https:\/\/outlawtrials.com\/davesblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Peter-Gaunt-on-the-wee-Suzuki-215x300.jpg 215w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 517px) 100vw, 517px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>====================================<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We have picked up the medals for the upcoming Shuswap Trial &#8211; these are pretty special.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" src=\"https:\/\/outlawtrials.com\/davesblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_3900.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10527\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>======================================<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>==================================== Answer to the last quiz &#8211; &#8211; It was a pic of Adam Raga riding the Classic Leven Trial in Scotland. on a Triumph twin. &#8211; Harlow, Pete Varey and Steve ORorke got it.
