<\/figure>\n\n\n\n=====================================<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Here is a shot of Team Canada 2025 for the TDN in Italy – – We hope they all make it OK – Nice to see our Outlaw Beta Gals in there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n ===========================================<\/p>\n\n\n\n Below is a pic of Sammy Miller in the 1971 ISDT held in the Isle of Man – He is passing a USA rider who looks to have failed a hill climb – Note ! Sammy is on a Bultaco Matador. – we were supposed to go that year also on a Matador, but I broke my leg early in the year – ( reported yesterday on the blog) – I think Turk was on Team Canada that year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n ==========================================<\/p>\n\n\n\n We have often posted stories on our love for the High -Alpine – here is a shot of myself up at around 7,000 ft above Trout Lake BC. – I am sitting on a Beta 200, one of my favorite bikes. ( It ran perfectly up at the high altitude with no need for any carb adjustments) It looks like I have one of the Hebo number plate extra fuel tanks fitted and also one of our neat Outlaw BackPaks witch would hold an extra 3 Gas bottles. ( We gave that to Team Canada for use at the last TDN by Steve Day) – Sadly we no longer make any of the Outlaw toolbelts or other bags.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As I recall – We had Taff, Chris Hrabb and Bruce Baker with us that day – we climbed up via a narrow deer trail like a very long Trials section – which had a huge tree across at one point, which needed some extra hands to get the bikes up and over – but what a neat ride. ( I think Taff and myself also did a Revvy ride that same weekend, plus the Trial at Ymir !! I must have had more energy back then.<\/p>\n\n\n\n ==========================================<\/p>\n\n\n\n We forgot to mention on an earlier blog – that our new Spark arrestors have a wider screen which is not likely to clog up – plus of course if you use Opti 2 at 80-1 ratio your bike will run nice and clean. – ( available from your local Trials dealer)<\/p>\n\n\n\n We have stock for Beta and TRS. and yes you WILL need one if riding the Naramata Trial in April.<\/p>\n\n\n\n ======================================<\/p>\n\n\n\n Birthday Greetings to our son in law Grant – Our daughter Helen and Grant are visiting Ft St John this week – where Grant grew up – this is a pic they sent of the Signpost at Dawson Creek – a spot I drove by many times in my travels – The local Yamaha dealer called “Walt’s House of Wheels” was just up the road on the right side. – This is the official start of the Alaska Hiway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Finally – I think somebody needs to invent a “Trump button” for the TV – One that automatically switches channels when he comes on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n =======================================<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Answer to the last quiz – a young Graeme Jarvis – correct guess’s from Brett, Neil Carter and Peter LeGrove from “Down under” Quiz today.
