  1. Try this one boys.... Clicky..
  2. Fookin hell...that was brilliant!!
  3. Aye we do. Spiky...we have a hare and hounds next weekend on the Glen Trusta estate near Brechin might be a good opener for you, three hours at your pace. Regs Entry Form Even some pics on the Scottish Endurosweb site. There are apparently mega problems at Woodside and it should be avoided at all costs. Some major land use shenanigans on the go.
  4. Must be why you ride Gassers Gav....that Grouse muck is addling your brain
  5. We're not and you know that, what irks me is what I've written above, people spend a lot of time putting on two of the best events on the planet yet our keyboard warriors see the need to rip the trials and everything about them apart, completely unnecessarily. How pi55ed of do you get Paul if someone rips your wee club trials apart, too hard too easy, rules are rubbish......any of the garbage that gets spouted on here, multiply that to the level of these international events and put yourself in their shoes.
  6. We saw cock all either cloud base was a 600ft. last time I saw this many geeks cry was when LHC let go it's magnets Nah not with this, just high energy particles bombarding the atmosphere, causes all sort of hassle with radio and satellite transmissions but other than that it would take a catastrophic solar event to cause us any major problems.
  7. Because there are too many people out there who feel their omission is cause to whine and complain or they just can't handle a day without whining about something!! The Rules - if you don't like whats in the Trials Regs, DON'T ENTER Trial is too hard - If you can't handle it, DON'T ENTER The Ballot - if you don't like it DON'T ENTER It's in Scotland - if you don't like it DON'T ENTER (the SSDT and Pre 65 committees are not sponsored by Visit Scotland) It's always my view that 95% of the whines and whinges are motivated by sour grapes, especially the Pre'65. These two trials are the best there is in their respective categories and people want to ride but if you can't accept the rules the club lays down then tough sh!t, get off the respective organisers back, they are not the problem the whingers are!
  8. My old man used to rave about Reg May's tweaks to Bultos and certainly considered him to be in the demi-god ranks of the spanner men at making good bikes into something much more special. I know he always wanted to have one of his bikes breathed on by Reg May. 20 years later when so much more is now possible with lighter stronger materials and better technology the Puma bikes are stunning but even now I think if the money was no option I have something that had been fettled by Reg May than a Puma. I trust my old man's judgement on these things!! (anyway if money was no object I'd have both!!)
  9. There's a new drug on the market for depressed lesbians, it's called tricoxagin
  10. Officially....my mob were on the Appin/Duror/Kentallen side of the hills, Stewarts.
  11. Saw this earlier, sad news, man was a genius
  12. What....one of those HD1080 ones.......the ones that can analyse Beta ignition problems.............
  13. Up on the Penstock Road heading towards Blackwater the is a wee sign that points to Glencoe via the Devils Staircase, on a tiny wee footpath, it may even mention Mhartuim as well. Year before the old man had his stroke we went looking for THE Devils Staircase but couldn't get to it. I do remember walking up it many moons ago, mid 70s I suspect.

    I'm lucky!

    Holy Feck...Kinell....how you doing mate?? We thought you forgotten your way in here
  15. Pipeline is the most Iconic and pictured section in the Scottish and is a must. However stretch your visit and get to see more at the Pre 65, Pipeline, Mamore, Loch Eild Path, Coalsnacoan, Cnoc a Linnhe etc etc Trust me it'll be worth it
  16. ...for the purpose...
  17. Second guessing OTH here but.... Pipeline - as DBF says its above Kinlochleven, most recent years it been used on the Saturday morning in the big trial but used both days in the pre65 held the weekend before the main trial. Lagnaha (Kentallen)- There is a road bridge at the bottom of the second sub group but they only ride under it to get back onto the road back to Fort William. Used on the Monday afternoon ....Thursday PM...Saturday PM. The only other places I can think of with a bridge that would feature are Leanachan, Trotters Burn, maybe Forrest Gate
  18. Stuart, In the past we've seen some of these ebay punters put bikes on ebay just to play games and then withdraw them at the last minute. Often these are bikes which can attract top dollar sometimes it's just guys on ebay being complete to$$ers. Patience
