I came home tired, but still smiling !! -Note ! We can supply a 2024 Evo 200 brand new at a huge $2000 saving &#8211; but the one we have is not for sale &#8211; we like it that much. &#8211; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> Also took some neat Go Pro footage and saw a bunch of White-tail deer. Mike was on his Factory Beta and we did not see a soul while we enjoyed our day out. Roy is still recuperating from his cataract surgery, so did not join us, but we had a good chat around the woodstove in his shop when we returned &#8211; catching up on news after the winter lay-off. &#8211; As usual Mike&#8217;s good lady had made us coffee and sandwiches , which really &#8220;Hit the spot&#8221;<\/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\/03\/IMG_3434.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7513\" srcset=\"https:\/\/outlawtrials.com\/davesblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/IMG_3434.jpg 600w, https:\/\/outlawtrials.com\/davesblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/IMG_3434-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\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\/03\/IMG_3431.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7517\" srcset=\"https:\/\/outlawtrials.com\/davesblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/IMG_3431.jpg 600w, https:\/\/outlawtrials.com\/davesblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/IMG_3431-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\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\/03\/IMG_3432.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7514\" srcset=\"https:\/\/outlawtrials.com\/davesblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/IMG_3432.jpg 600w, https:\/\/outlawtrials.com\/davesblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/IMG_3432-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\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\/03\/IMG_3437.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7515\" srcset=\"https:\/\/outlawtrials.com\/davesblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/IMG_3437.jpg 600w, https:\/\/outlawtrials.com\/davesblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/IMG_3437-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>===========================================<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Looking through old files &#8211; came across this from many years ago at Stony Plain Alberta &#8211; It was a round of the Outlaw series, when we had Vintage on the Saturday and modern on the Sunday &#8211; Taff is on one of my Ossa twin shocks while I&#8217;m on the neat TY 175 &#8211; As you will see, I&#8217;m wearing my old Ellgren Jersey &#8211; very popular gear back in the day. &#8211; We had some great Trials at this location.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/outlawtrials.com\/davesblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Stoney-2-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7519\" srcset=\"https:\/\/outlawtrials.com\/davesblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Stoney-2-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/outlawtrials.com\/davesblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Stoney-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/outlawtrials.com\/davesblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Stoney-2-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/outlawtrials.com\/davesblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Stoney-2.jpg 1460w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>============================================<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally &#8211; Not Trials &#8211; but what a bike !!
