  1. I read one competitor on fb complaining about a couple of fives for stopping, probably best not to stop then
  2. Oh....gossip....do tell
  3. 2017 uses mineral oil in the clutch and dot 4 in the brake. Apologies for the thread revival but I was doing a search for my own benefit and it tells you on the cap lids.
  4. Casing back on, seems it was the tophat push rod that must've been under hydraulic pressure.
  5. 2015 pro 125. The most frustrating thing is, we had it all on, bolted up with ease, til we noticed the missing washer that sits on the push rod, since then we cannnot get it to just slip on, it's continually being forced up.
  6. Waterpump drive isn't even in the casing. It's like the clutch is engaged, but obviously it's not.
  7. Had the clutch cover off to check the plates however upon trying to re-fit the cover we're having a hellish job, it just won't slip back on without physically forcing it down which just can't be right. We had it on a bolted up then spotted we'd left off a washer, it went on no bother then but since taking it back off we cannot get it on again...
  8. Cheers for that. Had I known entries were slow prior to now is have entered. Will deffo have it pencilled in for next year.
  9. I believe this is on this weekend ? A clubman two dayer it says so can anyone tell me level that is as I quite fancy it next year but seems there is clubman trials and clubman trials
  10. Your forgetting something.....you have to do the work yourself I have various mtbs/cx bikes, and everytime I make a decision on which one to use, it's the one with the two stroke engine in it wins every time
  11. Will post some more in my return when I can upload more.
  12. Well caught the tail end of day one, just a couple of sections as i was on a road bike.

    290 Tank range

    Depends how you ride it, 8 mile to approx 12 to empty tops.
  14. I'll be on a motorcycle so covering 60 miles or more isn't a problem, getting to Girona and back to Bilbao in a day would be.
  15. Brilliant, I'll be there on the Saturday and possibly Sunday.
  16. I'm sorry I'm missing your point I shall be in the Picos for 3 days, then in Bilbao the weekend of 16th/17th then over to the Pyrenees for 3 days, I don't have time to get to Girona so any trial in and around Bilbao on that weekend will be easily manageable, Girona on the other hand not, hope that clears things up, but who knows.
  17. 50 miles is perfectly fine but I can't find anything. I'm away there next week so really only the weekend of 16th/17th.
  18. I found nowt while searching so thanks for that.
  19. Is anyone familiar with trials around the Bilbao area. Any trials shops in or around the city ?? Any clubs in and around the city ?? I know Gerona is a big trials area but not sure I'll be over as far as that but I will be in the Bilbao area for a few days soon.
  20. Fitness. I've watched many a newbie dragging their bike out of section after section, not overly difficult sections but sections where they possibly fall over and then feel they are holding the whole trial up, so drag their bike out, do that x40 and you'll find one very tired beginner. It's fatigue that gets the newbies not section severity and a 13 year old is a lot fitter than your average 50 something newbie.
  21. Why would that surprise you ?? I can't recall many first timers finishing a trial in my last 6/7 years, usually takes them at least 3 possibly 4 trials til they get their first finish.
  22. For a period of time, you guys pandered to a small minority by increasing the severity of sections, it put me off, I suspect it possibly put others off to.
