    Wheels

    What's the going price for a pair of wheels, alloy flanged rims, galvanised spokes with Cub hubs?

    Red Marley

    The Rock Shocks will go on our trick bikes, we like to keep these as traditional as possible, ie as they were when they left the factory back in '59.
  3. Really looking forward to the Red Marley trial this weekend, the bikes are all prepped and ready to go. Me and my mate are hoping to win the Rock Shocks for the best Triumph and Matchless riders. I'm riding the Matchless on the left my mate is riding the Triumph on the right.
  4. Sorry, one final point. Is all of this really important given news like this? http://news.sky.com/story/1456029/one-direction-fury-at-zayn-malik-solo-demo
  5. John, are you related to the Pete Collins, trials legend from the South West? Please put me down as a machine examiner, PM me with the details, really looking forward to helping out.
  6. Phew, this is all very confusing, and to be honest, all I want to do is ride my bike at the weekend, and fettle for the next weekend if work permits during the week. We aren't going to be world champs the next Toni Bou, Steve Allen or Jon Cull so just get the bikes out, choose the route that's best for you and enjoy it. Why worry what everyone else is doing, it's not worth it, enjoy what you have, make the most of it, simples........ See you all at the Red Marley trail this Sunday
  7. Got it, that double sub was a bit of a nightmare, queued for ages. Oh well bike sorted all ready now for the Red Marley trial on Sunday.
  8. Interesting, what's the last paragraph about?
  9. The start will be two riders going off in minute intervals by class entered next year. You will also have to be ticked off by the starter and not just start without going to the start.
  10. You've convinced, I'll sign up :-)
  11. Might even venture out on the Ariel, it is fully fettled now :-)
  12. Cleared some sections at the weekend near Brimscombe should be a great trial, bring on Weybridge
  13. What length rear shocks and front forks are people using with a Mills frame or is this more down to personal preference?
  14. So, the trial is over, bike is cleaned. I enjoyed it, but...... Far to many enduro bikes in my opinion, I worry that the classic bike scene is dying. Riding manners for some went out of the window, we have to respect others, stop and turn off engines for horse riders etc etc You can open and close gates, it's really easy. Should I ride the CRF 450 R next year and really p@ss people off?
  15. Sidecars should go out on Monday morning not first out on the Sumday, my opinion only.
  16. I used to help at Swindon Town FC , but they didn't let me play in the Premiership #rediculasreason
  17. Giving preference to the classic bikes is correct in my opinion especially as they are a classic club.
  18. I'm Looking forward to Suday, has anyone seen an entry list?
  19. So cheating really and not in the true spirit of pre 65. Ariels had both back in the day, so that's the route I've taken.
  20. Back in day did the Bantams come out of the factory with an alloy barrel?
  21. Hi all, here's a copy of the regs and entry form for the Cotswold Cups a classic road trial around the Stroud Valley. We're spoilt in March down here, first the March Hare and then the Cotswold Cups in the same month. Cotwold Cups Regs 2015.pdf SAMMY MILLER ENTRY FORM (2015)GV.pdf Should be great trial, hope to see a lot of you there.
  22. I'll tell you what though, it was a lot heavier than I thought the Ariel, Matchless & C15 are much lighter, I guess the acid test will be when I start to use it.
  23. I know, but the options just did not stack up. It will take a lot of learning on my part, but I think once mastered it should last a life time
  24. ... I have just bought a Bantam. Should be able to pick it up in a week or so, been looking around for a while and I think I've made the right choice. Very good set of gears and revs well, watch this space :-)
