I got a few messages today about this and made a couple of phone calls. As far as I have been able to find out it was a Motocross rider NOT a Trials rider and it was Cowm Quarry, not Crown Quarry.
It is, however, still a tragic incident and I'm sure the thoughts of all go out to the family of this young lad.

I was on the phone to someone about that very subject yesterday!
-
Don't forget my invoice for providing market research info
-
You're right - it did get me in here sharpish!
BTW, post received. Ta.
-
I've just been looking through them. Some crackers for sure. I might pass them to Scarborough to put on their website, but I'm not at all sure about putting them on TC!
-
Full results plus photo coverage now on front page.

Craig - you can make the enquiry and post your outcome with no hassle whatsoever. I just don't want to say anything that may have been said to me or in front of me "off the record"
Dan - "I think that it is up to us to build the sport in North America to the point where our market can't be ignored." That, in my personal opinion, completely sums it up. How you do it, I don't know, but I'm sure Lane will tell us
Lane - You're talking total bollox.
-
I just copied and pasted from an email - you think I actually check the stuff I put on here?!!!
-
Top weekend. Thoroughly enjoyed myself. (and not just the beer tent!) Just sorting the photos out now and awaiting results before it goes on the front page.

I don't want you to think I've ignored this topic so...
I've got to know the FIM Trials guys well and it's a relationship I want to continue and to grow. As such, I don't think it's my place to comment. Things have been talked about when I've been present, but I don't think it's right for me to publicise them. We very often stay in the same hotels and I don't want them thinking they have to watch what they say because I'm there - what happens on the road, stays on the road. Trials Central policy. I'd suggest you contact the FIM directly. Sorry, but I don't want to spoil a good relationship and the trust I currently enjoy with them.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but at TTC didn't we have the same observers observing different riders riding under different rules? AMA rules and WTC rules? Could be wrong, but I seem to recall it being flagged as a potential for major mistakes.

Not that you're biased Stu
To put it to bed once and for all - Ron was tight on his marking. Perhaps more tight than you'd see at most world rounds, but the FIM delegate determined he was correct and (for those who are site supporters) it can easily be seen by my video of Cabestany that he accepted the decision. Yes, he questioned it, but it was for a couple of seconds and he moved on. This was the last section of the day. Fujinami won by ONE point over Raga and TWO points over Cabestany. Believe me, if Cabestany thought that decision was wrong in any way and could have made the difference between third and first he'd have brought the house down... It was hard marking, but by the rules.

Jordi wasn't riding because his mum was unwell. He was still on a standby flight right up till the last minute. Disappointing, yes, but totally understandable. As for Amos and his "where is the money?" that is just typical Amos - joking and messing around. Bear in mind there were a similar number there on Saturday last year. People will go regardless to pick their viewing spots for Sunday, to get autographs, browse the traders, watch practice etc etc. The mini-masters was a bonus over and above last year.
I had some insight into the hassles and the bulk of it was down to one or two local residents. The only police involvement I am aware of is with someone who got a*sey on the campsite. Of course, with the Trial rumour mill this has no doubt got to the riot shields, water cannon and tear gas stage
-
Competition ain't closed yet!
-
I'll get meself close enough and wing it from there!
-
I had video, but it looks like somehow the tape got rewound and overwritten by Sunday's stuff
I've got some photos, but they're not that great as I forgot the flashgun.

Wrong!
An MP3 CD is actually a data CD full of MP3 files - hence an MP3 CD. Just copying the MP3s to a CD using Nero or whatever should work just fine.
-
I'm going to come down and cover this.
-
It was indeed - or as I told him - "From now on you shall be known as 'Ron The B*****D'"
-
I didn't see what happened with Laia at Section 15, but I know she got yellow carded. She came to the press office later to protest and was backed up by one of the photographers that she was polite when asking. Anybody see what happened?
-
I was en route to Hawkstone. Any clues as to what brought this on?
