New guy..

Post by mattyl01 »

My name is Matt Langtree and I currently live in Melbourne.

I come from a family of Trials riders, with my Dad being the president of the former Cairns Trials Club (Queensland). I grew up in Cairns and learnt to ride on a TLR 250 and now ride a recent model GasGas in as many Victorian club events as possible. Last year I worked with the Trials Club of Victoria on the website for the 2012 World Championship in Maldon (Australia).

I have the honour of now looking after the trials.com.au website which has been passed on from Keith Jobson who has been at the helm for over 17 years.

My first priorities are revamping the Events system and the Club listing pages. I also want to bring more of the International Events into the site where our local riders are competing.

I'm hoping I can use my Web Development experience to move the website forward and bring our sport to the masses.

Matt it is great to have you aboard. It is a sad day that Keith is departing, but I'll look forward to the changes with anticipation. Nice work.

Thanks Paul. Keith's work on TA has been really pivotal to shaping our sport. From working full time in the web industry myself, I can see the countless hours that he has put into this fantastic resource. :)

Thanks for stepping up Matt. Keith's boots will take some filling, but I am sure you will be up to it. If I can help, just ask.
