Answer to the last quiz – Barry Van As – riding the section we called Devil’s Staircase at Summerland – our old buddy Peter Brown (RIP) is watching. – Barry was the first rider to try this, and he stopped soon after I took this shot. – I think the section is the best one that I have ever plotted, that took so much time and effort to construct, as Pete and myself spent a few weeks, cutting down trees and raking off a ton of bark mulch. ( Although some I found for the 1975 World Round would have been close)- surprisingly Neil Carter from Ontario came in with the closest answer, when he named both the rider and the section. But later Stan got all three questions correct!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Quiz today – Who is this? and what is the bike?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another pic from Telford showing Mick chatting to a new TY frame builder – but it was the yellow sign upper left – that caught my attention!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s no secret to our regular ‘Bloggers” that we have always promoted ‘English’ style trials events, with natural sections – this pic is actually a young Australian lad practicing “down under” in terrain he needs to get right, for his first ride in the Scottish this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Below is a section at a winter trial in the UK from last Sunday – you can see what we mean by typical UK sections. ( Neil Sturgeon pic)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile down in Mexico, Stan and Bruce are finding more neat stuff to ride. Now if we can just get him to stop shaking when takes pics!!! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

And finally a nice pic I took while out at bear Creek on a February day many years ago. – I recall one year we had very little snow, so Barry and myself planned a Trial in this area for February – Yes you guessed it, we had a big dump of snow and had to postpone. – Many of the old timers will remember some snow Trials we ran in Alberta, as last minute storms blew in. ( Yup ! Dunlop 4 ply tires were great!!)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
