What time does it start?

Oh shit I forgot the important bits, starts 10.30 am both days

[Trials Rider]

Open invitation, I will have my 2007 Sherco 250 with me on Sunday, if any of you guys come out my bike has my name on the yellow front plate Paul Delis, come and see me and take the bike for a play, you will be amazed how easy a 69kg bike is to ride after an Adventure bike, it is truly not 1/2 an adventure bike.

A very kind offer! And I can attest to what you're saying. First time I rode a true trials bike I freaked! Shitload of fun.

Cheers for the heads up on this, I went for a look today but couldn't find you

Had a very enjoyable couple of hours watching some of the different sections

Bugger, I was on section 7 at the end of the gully, glad you enjoyed it, good to watch the expert grade riders

North or South end?

Yes the expert grade were quite impressive, another guy I told about it came for a look as well he is just trying to get a hold of a TY off someone he knows

Even saw a cousin of mine (who I didn't even know existed) riding one

I went out for a few hours. Knew I shouldn't have. Now I want another bike:facepalm:

But there was some pretty classy riding alright. But still accessable for the clubman types. Really cool.
