Regs and entry out for the Big One, the Jean Williams Memorial Trial - 26th May 2019. Held about 20 miles West of Welshpool in amazing Welsh countryside. Now in it's 18th consecutive year. Great fun trial, great sections, great atmosphere. Great :-) Approx 40 sections, one lap of about 25 miles, all classes, age 6 to 86 (ish). All off road, pass back through the start to refuel twice so no mobile fuelling required. Big screen results throughout the day. Catering, toilets, marquee for entries. Don't miss out! Observers always welcome, we'll get your food and drink. Join us for the big day! Forest_trophyregs2019b.pdf

Jean Williams Memorial Trial (Formerly Forest Trophy Trial) coming up soon in Mid Wales - 27th May (bank holiday weekend). A big day out, 40 sections all off road, 4 routes from Sportsman to Expert. Entries limited to 220. Fun trial, yes there are trophies, but the main theme of the trial is just a bl**dy good long day out on the bike. If you haven't tried it, maybe you need to. Same land as the Mid Wales S3 trial held earlier this year. Forest_trophyregs2018a.pdf

Limited camping, not so much limit on area, you've got quarter of a million acres, but no nice green fields, just gravelly bits by the side of the forest tracks. For camper vans it's ideal, for tents not so comfy. I can do some digging about local camp sites if you want though. Cann Office Hotel is nearest accommodation at SY21 0PL

Thanks everybody for a really well spirited event. Just under 200 starters. As always, the weather helps, but the observers helped too. Thanks to the Clive club for taking a whole group of 8 sections, and to South Shropshire club and the Midlands Centre in general for their great help. And of course to everyone that helped make it a great success. ForestTrophyResults2015final1.pdf

Final Entry List is out for the Forest Trophy Trial this Sunday. It's pretty similar to the provisional ones form this week. Very few alterations. I'm not likely to be available online for a while due to being stuck up a mountain, but will pick up Facebook updates to the Llanfyllin Trials site at least from time to time if you have any queries.

If Tom Ablewhite is on here, let me know your class please. It won't be in the program as we just finished and printed it but I can get it in the results program ready to go. Results should be available on the big TV at the finish, and hopefully if I still have internet access at the finish I'll get them on here pretty soon after the last rider is in.

Probably 6 years ago now I managed to leave not 1 but 2 tyre levers in a tyre as I put it on. One of those last minute Saturday night ideas after a few pints. Was fine until it moved!

I'm Sherco but I'm guessing fairly standard: Oil - 10 quid? Fork seals - 8 quid a pair Clips - couple of quid Wipers - stupid amount, I think about 20 quid (each). I don't do them every time. One in 5 maybe. Bushes? I've replaced them once (in 9 years of hammer), cost a fortune, I think about 90 quid all in and were a nightmare to get out and in. I'd avoid it if you can.

Ah, maybe it's not installed. How d'ya fancy it Andy? http://www.messageforums.net/iphoneforumreader.php I know you've always got spare time to while away ;-)

Loving the way it fits in with smart phones now. That's been half my problem, I very rarely use a personal laptop, everything's smart phone. The forum works pretty well on iPhone now. Might be even better if I could work out the touchbb app. Anyone used it? Good stuff anyway!

In 3 years it will still be worth about 1500 I suppose

There's a 201 engine on eBay at the moment. I know nothing about it, just know because I have a permanent search for Fantic.
