Evening folks, rode the Man 17 trial tonight at Peak Forest A reet good do and the weather stayed fine too, the Hipwell clan ran it and the sections were bang on, my Missus observed and said the entry was only 31 yet each section had an observer. Nice to see stalwarts like Ron Wagstaffe and clan present and even Andy 'Father Jack' Hipwell managed to stay sober enough to record the scores on Section 3! Fart-tory Kev set the 8 sections out and did a good job despite his advancing years, he'll be catching Father Jack up soon! Thoroughly enjoyable evening courtesy of most of Gas Gas UK, even Jude and Dot were there. Ta folks Eiger ;D

What a pleasure, perfect weather and no wee beasties to eat you, not like Robbo's Rocks. Nipper Robbo had a good ride, his first win overall??? First of many I hope. I had to make one or two hard observing decisions as Team Hipwell had marked 8 very tightly and not one sign of decent. Anyone notice all those Canadian's? Dave Sharpley (originally of Sharpley's) is over visiting from his new home on the plains and was crashing Carries Gasser at every opportunity.

;D Its good to have so many supporters of trials involved to varying degrees but when you consider the amount of Gas Gas UK staff involved in so many aspects of the sport its much appreciated. And its got to be good for Gas Gas, don't get me wrong, I ride a Yamaha TY250 which has taught a few lessons in its time to Andy 'Father Jack' Hipwell!! But for an importer to have so much involvement with its staff in a variety of disciplines can only be good for the sport and its supporters, of which Gas Gas is one. Sithee soon Eiger
