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

Yesterday, we had a visit from Myles Manna and his wife, who now live on Vancouver Island, but used to live in Kelowna. – Myles has just got back into Trials with a New TRS and is really enjoying riding with the up-island group.. ( I showed him our new Beta Sincro 200 with the trick estart option.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

It was quite a surprise to find out we had quite a storm in the Valley on Thursday night – although I didn’t hear a thing as my long drive up and back to the Shuswap to deliver Ross his new Beta, tired me out in the hot weather. and I hit the sack early.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

I had to smile when I saw this pic posted as it looked a bit like the new delivery truck driver who dropped off the Sincro Factory bike.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

We hope the teams that crashed recover soon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

We came across this old pic taken when Sammy King first came to Canada -For those that don’t know the story – Sammy emailed me from OZ saying he was coming to Canada on Holiday and as he had been riding Beta Down Under, wondered if I could perhaps help him while visiting. – As most people know, I of course emailed back saying yes and when he arrived, we put him on a Beta Factory – then took him out to practice at our usual spots – the first one being at Silver Creek and we had him riding a bunch of raw creek sections – ending up at this waterfall. ( That is a pic Sammy took of me)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Later of course we went to Summerland and Sammy really got to grips riding some tough expert type sections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Sammy has gone onto other things now – but we had some great times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Anybody who has ridden Trials at Ioco, will recognise the name of Bill Thompson – Bill is from South of the border, but has always liked to ride up North, and has always done well – but for anybody of his age to still be competing is truly amazing – so Happy 90th birthday Bill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Lastly – I watched a video of Trials Tube last night, which featured John Shirt – Now I could really enjoy these clips more without Stu on there, and also think these could be more professional – but the one I watched had John Shirt on again, and I really like to hear his comments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They discussed a lot of things on this clip – about the Scottish and how things should maybe change , plus the World scene and how this relates to bike sales ( it doesn’t)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anyway – I suggest you click on – it’s quite long and a bunch of commercials, but John Shirt does make some valid points.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
