IT IS NOW

You sussed I'm a bit stressed then? I'm doing a massive website migration this weekend and it's not exactly going to plan. Not my fault, but I'm getting the flack. Nothing to do with Trials - It's a far less understanding mob than the Trials community is

Selling on the Forums is a fast-track to getting yourself banned. Didn't you read the forum rules that you accepted when you signed up? Here they are

You miss the gist of it. It is based on performance to be allowed to take part in the shootout. From there the lad for which you bear H2O would still have to beat the others to pass through.

The story was posted in July. Now who's with stupid?

I had a lengthy chat to Neil Crosswaite about this yesterday. The riders will be decided nearer the time based on how they're riding then. This is for up and coming riders so Grimbo is not in the frame.

Ermmm.... he's already over there. Story from back in July

If you're going to stalk anybody in TTT you might at least have the good taste to stalk Shaughan!

I dunno - if the cap fits....

If they look like Geordies and sound like Geordies...

You'll like Rapper's column this week...

I'm hearing news that a certain rejuvinated Jake Miller, heavily into training for his return to the world of competitive Trials in the 2008 SSDT * , smoked the Cota Kid and DJ Denzil at the recent Dougie Training Days. Can anyone confirm this? *Highlight hidden text to reveal spoiler

I've had the press information for some time, but unlike others I respect when I'm told there is a Press embargo. It's all about trust. I will publish the information on 12th Sept - even if it is old news as that's when the embargo is lifted. I can say the only rider featured in the photographs I have is Bou so I wouldn't read anything into Dougie not being featured.

Official release from organisers on front page

So much for a Press embargo

First thing I'd advise is to phone Sandifords direct - 01282 428383 and let them know your position. They may, or may not, have knowledge of the issue, but as the importer they are best placed to advise. It's best to talk to them direct.

I have heard similar from a totally reliable source, but as Cubby has always been very good at keeping TC users updated with info, I didn't want to steal his thunder. Cubby - over to you!

I got these images through in July along with the text "Find attached the industrial design of the new Xispa X250R.

I sent the petition off (1700 odd signatures) to him along with an offer of legal assistance and access to planning specialists which was kindly put up by a TC Member and have heard nothing. I'm told I shouldn't be surprised by this though.

I should add, I'm not doing this for the sake of curtailing free speech. I have a number of people who support this website financially who make their living through Trials. The last thing they need is any kind of wildfire spreading of rumour and speculation that Trials is going to be hit by this and Trials are going to be stopped etc when currently it is absolutely unproven, unfounded and unknown. I've found out only too well how the Trials rumour mill and jungle drums work and I don't see any speculation or rumour on this subject as being productive for anyone. Topic closed.

It was blowing out of proportion what is, at present, an isolated case and fell into "The sky's falling in" category. I also deleted an earlier reply of yours for the same reason. There is NOTHING, right now, to be concerned about in terms of Trials unless you live within the immediate vicinity of the affected farm. No events are threatened, the sport isn't threatened and there's nothing at all to be worried about until and unless we hear otherwise. Naturally people are concerned bearing in mind 2001, but until there is firm news there is no point in speculation. Tell me what's not factual about that?l
