Re: Candytown trials
I didn't take any pics but I have some coming to me via email.
So, how did it go. I managed two "1"s and a bazillion 3s with a few 5s. I took Boom Boom's advise and if it was obvious I was going to have problems I just paddled until I could stand again. I made it further than my previous event. Meaning I did 2 1/2 laps before I gave out. I started falling and my knees and back were screaming so I bagged it.
My neighbor Kirk, who just bought FireBolter's Yammi and had never ridden trials, did very well. He made all 4 laps and scored 70 with 13 cleans. I hate him.

Re: Candytown trials

Re: Candytown trials
Sounds like they had a great turnout and weather was perfect.
I so much wanted to make the event but managed to snag a gut bug somewhere and spent the day riding my Honda with the flush handle.
In two weeks the D-6 trials event will be at the same location, hope to see a good turn out for that event also.

Re: Candytown trials
the weather was indeed perfect. Could have used a bit less mud at one section. I had to dig mud out from the front wheel/fender eventually as it nearly seized up the front tire.Boom Boom wrote:Sounds like they had a great turnout and weather was perfect.
