Funnily enough we used Castrol XR77 which is a synthetic and never had any bottom end rattles on NYL's old Sherco. We continue to use it as well with no ill effects in the Gas Gas 125.

Results now available on Many congraulations to the Yeadon Guiseley "A" team of Ben and Dan Hemingway, and Lee Sampson on taking the trophy!! Yeadon Guiseley

We're moving to the 08 soon and as the MAG forks are on the standard bike we'll be going to that rather than the racing. We've just acquired a new carb with a different adapter and the current bike now has the "big" clutch resovior. Both are on the current bike for testing and we could be selling the "old" Keihin soon. Updates as NYL tries them out!

Youth A + B

The Gas Gas is good and easily upgradable, the Ohlins shock and Keihin Carb are the first things to try. The Beta has just been revised with a New airbox and Keihin as standard so is worth a look. The Sherco has been breathed on this year and for better riders the "Paxau" version is available... but it is at a price. Riding wise it depends what you like. In previous versions the Gas Gas has been the bike for riders who like to flick and bounce the bike around. The Sherco recently became a bike that could flick around while the Beta has been the "stable" option. However if or when the rider is good then the rider makes the difference. When it comes to the crunch the only thing to do is to see which suits the riders style best.

And that was just for footing!!!!!!!!!!!

Well the Silly season has taken off!!! It looks like Montesa will not renew Doug's contract and his most likely destination is Beta!!! More over the next couple of days!!!

Works ok on Firefox 22 and IE6.

They can all be tempermental when starting but the Beta tends to be the best followed by the Gas Gas. Seen a few Clipic Auto's about as well and they are pretty good.

I'm after the results of the Centre Championship trial in January. Anybody have them or the website???

Forget it spotted the problem!!!

Basically the Class structure is based on the YEAR they were born in. Hence this Years classes were 2007 A Class 1990 1991 B Class 1992 1993 1994 C class 1995 1996 1997 D Class 1998 1999 2000 2001 2008 A class 1991 1992 B Class 1993 1994 1995 c Class 1996 1997 1998 D Class 1999 2000 2001 2002 Examples If you are 14 on the First of January 2008 you are B class Even if you turn 15 on the second of January 2008, hence the 15 year olds competing in B class. It does mean that A class riders who turn 17 in their last year can ride Novice class on unrestricted bikes if they so wish. However to ride "In class" the riders are restricteed to the following bike capacities. A and B class ride 125cc Maximum C Class 80cc Monoshock Maximum D class 50cc Monoshock or TY80 Twin shock

It was 15 sections 3 laps and the time limti was upped to 5 1/2 hours. top three A class Ben Morphett Jack Challoner Jonathan Richardson B Class Jack Sheppard on most cleans Richard Sadler Josh Maude

Andy will be pleased.

We should be at Post Hill on Saturday. West Leeds club trial starting at 13:00. Horsforth will be at Greenhow on Sunday running a Novice Beginners(Easy 50/50 and Hard), Barry usually starts them at 11:00. There might be a few more on but I usually check the TMX calendar on thursday. Checking the web sites YG, Richmond(no guessing why? nice job by the way!),Spen and Barnsley are not running anything. We are due at Bracken Rocks for the last A & B Round Sunday so won't be out which is a shame as Green how is a nice venue.

Your wish is Granted Yeadon Guiseley & DMC

Now available on Yeadon Guiseley's web site!!!!

When I talked to Simon last he was playing his cards close to his chest but I did get the impression that something big was coming. Congratulations and the best of luck for 2008!!

Just had a call from another rider's Dad (Hi Mark ), and NYL is in. I gather that they have just over thirty entered at the moment and that the entries will remain open so that any delayed can be taken.

Ok Anybody heard anything??? I have posted NYL's entry and it has hopefully got to the secretary but I haven't been able to contact Mrs Crabtree to Confirm that He has an entry. Has anybody got any news??

The Problem is that all club riders want no-stop. All National riders want FIM. So we still end up with two sets of rules!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Anybody heard any more about the Midland rounds??? One of our friends had just sent off their entry for the EMRA Round and have recieved no word back as yet???

There will be parking and food available on site on Sunday. BDMC will be along to fill you in but the only restriction will be to make sure your vehicle is CLEAN when you arrive. That is make sure you haven't got mud and crap from the last trial you visited. Nobody is expecting you to have an immaculate vehicle and "normal" road dirt is acceptable. Which reminds me that I need to hose down the "bus" for the weekend. Have a good time!!

Three come to mind, Hull Auto, Scarborough & DMC and S****horpe MCC. If you go to the ACU Website you will find contact details. Turn up to Beginners trials just to get the "lie" of the land. As for costs it depends how serious you are and how much you can do yourself. It's a tenner an entry, five to ten pounds worth of Petrol "does" a weekend then it's down to two stroke and gearbox oil, how many pads/shoes you go thru for brakes etc. A Normal trial starts at 11 and usually is finished by 15:30 at the latest. Most of the "banter" is friendly and if you hit trouble somebody will help as far as they can.

I take NYL down every now and again for practice. For trials practice there are four main areas. A banked stream behind the main office portakabin's. A bowled area with trees around and in it with logs, some good banks, some wooden obsticles and small ravines. A small but interesting area of rocks and a smaller stream area. Probably about six or seven sections for a trial but plenty to practice on. They also sell cans and have a Pressure washer for a small donation. It's a small but useful facility and we like it. NYL learnt to ride a Motorcycle there and graduated up to TY80's before He started competing.
