alvin123 Posted April 8, 2012 Report Share Posted April 8, 2012 I have to ask, how it is that our british number one could not compete after crashing out damaging his bike. Why did he not have a spare bike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
telecat Posted April 8, 2012 Report Share Posted April 8, 2012 Might be more to do with hurting himself on that front. Probably suffering from not running more often indoors. Maybe the format should be tweaked to allow three riders with one dropped score. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
02-apr Posted April 8, 2012 Report Share Posted April 8, 2012 (edited) Surely the essence of trials riding is still that you DO NOT have a spare bike? Or is that another *******isation of the indoor rules? Edited April 8, 2012 by 2/4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petejohn Posted April 8, 2012 Report Share Posted April 8, 2012 Please give some credit to Michael Brown, he is your number one rider Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alvin123 Posted April 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2012 I thought both our boys rode very well. My point I was trying to make was had another bike been available a better position could have been gained. I thought it was standard practice for the top boys to have two bikes.

Brown rode well, As he always does, 100% effort, But Dabill was dissapointing, For being the number 1 UK rider & British Champ, His riding should be better than that, He started off well & looked confident, But again he let himself down by another stupid mistake. & that mistake cost the UK Team Of a possible second place. In my opinion, Alex Ferrer rode the best (apart from Bou), & has been riding well recently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
