So here we are heading into the start of the Trials competition season – everybody getting hyped up BUT what happens regarding bike shipments etc, with the Trump war going on? – He has already said he is banning all Imports from Spain !! so where does that leave TRS ? -Will we see more delays and higher freight? – And what is next with that Nut case? Obviously our government is 100% more level headed, but I don’t think any of this news will be good for our Industry. – F1 races and others already cancelled for the Middle East, so we are living in a very worrying time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

========================================<\/p>\n\n\n\n
