Yeah dabill been released from ttt! like i say this is just what people (who should and would no) were saying theyve heard. If these people were just spectators then id agree with just another rumour! but they werent. A sponsored rider was in on the conversation at the time aswell. time will tell! personally cant see it happening james dabill is going to be a star in the future so why would beta let him go?

When we were at the scott we spoke to someone from gas gas who said that gas gas are struggling financially and that they want to get rid of the top riders who cost them so much money and use young spanish kids for the next few years, also raga was mentioned about going to beta and dabill been released when his contract was up.

Just like to say well done to all the local lads and lass! who did the scott this year and got round in time. We all went up to watch and had cracking day, you dont realise until you get up there the amount of time and effort that must be put in to organising this trial so well done to Richmond Mc. whod of thought jarvis missing a section out! think hed no the course by now. Only disapointing thing of the day was again the lads on trail bikes following it about and going where they liked anbd the clowns to had the hooters and some of the sections.

What sections do you personally think are best to watch perce? obviously harder the better for the spectator?

Cheers i think ill take a look up there then. Its not the walking that bothers me its the parking thats sometimes bad and actually trying to find the sections.

Are the blackhill sections worth watching? last year we watched at underbanks,whaw bridge, sleeper bridge and somewhere else but cant remember the name and this year wed like to watch some different sections.

Perce what the best way to get to blackhills sections? ive never been to these sections before.

Perce on the richmond motor club web site the photos of the a-b nationals looks familiar? where were these sections actually at?

At the end of the day you wont get any better riding sections that are to easy and I have to say I persoanlly that would prefer to ride a harder trial than a easy trial because you get more satisfaction out of riding through an dhard section for 2 than cleaning a simple section. And if its easier for the lads who set the trials out then fair play becasue without them we woulnt have trials would we.

Like i say perce i rode the 3 day and personally thought they were perfect, I didnt clean that many but they were enjoyable to ride even tho they were hard, as fore the crackpot trial on sunday i dint ride this but the lads who did said it was alot harder! they might not of ment the same sections possibley?

You are always going to get this debate when you have trials such as the crackpot, gerald simspon, reeth 3 days trials where only adults can enter! I didnt ride the trial this sunday but rode the other 2 ealier in the year and have to say i thought the sections is both the 3 day and gerald simspn were perfect for the clubman hard enough not to clean but do able when having a good ride. I spoke to few people on sunday night about the crackpot 3 clubman and 1 expert and they all said the same thing! alot of the sections were to hard for the clubman riders but a bit easy for the expert route! with the crackpot it is a cente trial so it should be harder than the average trial and clearly was, but whats the point making it so hard that you get the amount of retirements that the did? I personally think that these type of trials should be made for the clubmen / green course riders and if the experts etc think its to easy its simple dont enter next year! clubs should remember that its the not so good class of riders that are the majority of the entery at club trials not the expert!

If you were being serious and do want people to help I could try to get into contact with him for you tho! i speak to him every few weeks.

No not at all mate, im from leeds and used to work with a lad who comes from richmond and hes into trials riding a bit i think hes helped set out the scott once before!

Yes thats probably true i no soembody who may want to help out if you need people, ill try to have a word with him.

Is there many practice areas up richmond way then perce? any farmers i could ring to get permission?
