At the end of the day Shirty knew he should not be in any section yet chose to be there, perhaps the punishment was/is harsh but never the less was known and apparently pointed out by JC prior. So whilst we all try to push our luck/bend the rules in many things ultimately one day its going to come back and bite you on the a***
It must be remembered that at the British Championship meeting it was agreed there would be one ‘assistant’ and that ‘assistant’ was not allowed in the section without the prior agreement of the observer. That assistant was the person who had signed on at the start of the trial. Any rider or person associated with that rider/team would be excluded if they contravened the rules. John Collins pointed this out at the riders briefings.
Easy there "trials" snobs , he's doing what he can, with what he has.
It will help some , how ever many times what you need is tire speed (ability to move large amounts of real estate "dirt" ) a trials bike will be hard pressed to do so.
there is some terrain that favors one type of bike or the other .
Good Luck
Hardly being a trials snob, he asked if he would be able to compete with the enduro boys on a 2010 Gas Gas and the answer IMHO is no.
He asked are we reducing the lifespan by riding flatout all the time IMHO yes

Hence the need for the spacer mentioned above to enable fitting of an Ohlins spring to a Sachs shock![:popcorn:](https://www.trialscentral.com/forums/uploads/emoticons/default_popcorn.gif)
