<\/figure>\n\n\n\n============================================<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I was chatting yesterday to my Opti Supplier in The USA – we discussed the Political situation with regards to possible Trump Tariffs – but at this point it appears no news is good news. – We have a good stock, and were only ordering more snowmobile oil. However, we advise any of our Opti fans to check what they have, and buy now if you need it – We might have got rid of one big problem in Canada, but the other one South of the border, is unpredictable to say the least.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We now have the Opti 2 mix pouches in small easy to buy or carry .<\/p>\n\n\n\n Note! We have now been the Opti Importer for 38years!! <\/p>\n\n\n\n =======================================<\/p>\n\n\n\n Don’t forget – If you are thinking of buying a new TRS or Beta this year – better shout up quick as these will only be special ordered..<\/p>\n\n\n\n =======================================<\/p>\n\n\n\n Looking ahead to perhaps a Trial at Summerland – ( This will not be called the Outlaw) – We are sure it will be a huge success – especially if the loop goes by this spot ! – That is Black Mountain in Summerland in the distance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n – I had a section just over my left shoulder, that dropped quite steep, down a rock face then back up with a jump across a gap up onto another rock -. we never used it, but I showed it to the two Brits I had out there, then had Sammy try it first time out on our new Beta. – He didn’t make it, but later I showed it to Brandon Wince and he aced it on his Beta – the only rider to do this to date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n ===========================================<\/p>\n\n\n\n Below you see a pic of Agostini posing with a couple of Ariel Arrow road racers. – the one behind him (gold) looks fairly stock – We had one of our staff Photographers at Woodall’s Newspapers own one of these, and he let me take it for a ride. – I gave the bike a real test, as the two stroke twin would go pretty good. – But while blasting down a Country road outside Oswestry, a wood pigeon wafted over the hedge and struck me in the face ( I figure I was going 70mph plus) – luckily I kept control – and returned the bike undamaged, but I sure had a big bruise on my face.!!! – an Irish guy by the name of Peter Inchley tuned one for the TT races in the Island, but I can’t remember how it finished. – Unfortunately the British Motorcycle Industry was headed downhill at the time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n ===========================================<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" It’s hard to believe that we have no snow at this time of the year except up high !! – We just hope this doesn’t lead to drought and Fire conditions later. ( But we ‘aint complaining) Answer to the last quiz – Johnny Draper on a Cotton – well spotted by Brett, who got… Continue reading Wednesday January 8th\/25<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/outlawtrials.com\/davesblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6677"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/outlawtrials.com\/davesblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/outlawtrials.com\/davesblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/outlawtrials.com\/davesblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/outlawtrials.com\/davesblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6677"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/outlawtrials.com\/davesblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6677\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6690,"href":"https:\/\/outlawtrials.com\/davesblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6677\/revisions\/6690"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/outlawtrials.com\/davesblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6677"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/outlawtrials.com\/davesblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6677"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/outlawtrials.com\/davesblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6677"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"\"](\"https:\/\/outlawtrials.com\/davesblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/cid_image006_png@01DB18A5.png\")
