Aha! The season has finally started!

So...Who is this rider???

Did he save it........ or did the brand spanking new Scorpa end over end 20ft back down into the creek and the remaining pieces have to be sent back to the Scorpa Factory to have someone's goolies surgically removed from the rear guard????

Yeah....a glass of water...altho it might be something stronger if you bring along the new AJS MTC stickers! 8)


Motostar....He saved it! It wouldn't have been a good start to the season if Greg had toasted his new bike on only a practice day!! These new Scorpa's have a much improved power delivery.
It was a very tough/steep climb with lots of loose dirt at the bottom and further up was studded with rocks. You had to hit it wide open at the bottom and then back off a tad to regain some traction and also so your bike would bounce too severely if you got offline and hit a rock.

Here's what you got if you if you tried wide open all the way. This is Mike Collins. And keeping him from eating some major dirt is Joe Tarabini.

definitely looks pretty steep!!

Ah well, in my opinion, if you're not falling off (or at least someone catching you) then ur not riding hard enough! Although I would not have been a fan of smashing my new bike on my first practice day!

Sure is, mate, you guys can pick em hey, a few others in my normal "discipline" have picked that as well!

This trials venture has turned out to be very rewarding, I'm feeling a little restricted without a trailer to go anywhere, without the freedom of using a public road on a bike that can't be registered, but been out twice and thoroughly enjoyed myself, I had no idea how physically exhausting the trials scene is!

Any guys on the Brisbane south side that I can get in a bit more regular practice with? I simply don't have a place for a trailer at my house with 4 bikes in the garage already, and complex rules that prohibit parking of such luxuries in the area around my house... But I'd pay a reasonable fee to be collected on the way to a riding destination...
