No. It wasn't a world championship event so no telly crew present.
I have about 40 mins of video uploading now. I'll be sticking a couple of samples on the TC YouTube channel with the rest available to TC supporters later this evening once finished uploading.
If anybody from Scotland fancies a last minute jaunt down to Sheffield for tomorrow night's Indoor, Iain Shankie has a bus leaving from Coatbridge at 11am tomorrow morning and, due to cancellations has some tickets available. Anyone interested should phone Iain on 07831 681728
This is taken directly from the email received by Neil Crosswaite and I have his permission to reproduce it:
The reason for which Ossa Racing Team will not attend the event on January 8th is:
1. Delay in the receipt of the official driving gear from our main sponsor Petromiralles, for contractual reasons this makes our participation impossible.
We hope that these acts of force majeure will not cause problems to the organization and conduct of the event.
I would have thought it was more important for the bike to be seen in it's second largest potential market than it was for a sponsor who is unknown in the UK to gain coverage at an event which is not a world championship event and is not being televised, but maybe that's just me...
As we have Ron Goodfellow here on TC who was the original designer and manufacturer of the Saracen range of motorcycles I've created this Forum both for questions on the bikes and also as an outlet for Ron to provide historical information and photographs of the Saracen range.
Also been told Fajardo won't be riding next round of world indoor champ which would be first world event on the bike...
Btw, the withdrawal is 100% down to OSSA not the Sheffield organizers. I've seen the letter OSSA sent them
with Trials all over the place being cancelled due to the weather, I've created a master list accessible via the front page of TC for updates. Clubs can submit the latest on their events via a simple online form. CLICK HERE
I seem to recall Bigfoot saying he used Corel Videostudio, but I'm sure he'll confirm. I tried that and didn't get on with it. Tried several more, settled with Powerdirector and love it. Very powerful tool, but needs a beefy machine to run well. If I recall correctly you can try before you buy.
More to the point, why be disappointed at L&M when they have nothing to do with Sheffield? Avondale Management are the Sheffield Organisers. L&M are the Outdoor Championship.
I nicked that photo from another forum where half the folk are scratching their heads and not seeing anything wrong! Thankfully Blocky has explained it well for any TC'ers who don't get it!
