Stretes

Kevin,
 
On the Chat last night yopu were asking about Stretes. I found this picture over on the Archive Site. It's sometime in the 50's so it could have changed!

Exeter Trial - bike class B - tyres

First MCC event for me so please excuse my naivety! 
 
I should have read the regs before today - I had mistakenly believed that road legal trials tyres like my MT43s were OK but am now not sure because of the distance between the blocks being more than 6mm. What tyres do other folks use on bikes please?
 
Regards and Happy New Year

Have you signed in?

If, like I was doing, you view the message board without bothering to sign in to the community be aware of the following :-

" ....if you do not sign in to your Hotmail account for 30 days (or within the first 10 days after you set up your account), Hotmail marks your account as "Inactive". Your stored e-mail messages are deleted, and inbound mail messages are returned to the sender. Your Passport still works, and your Hotmail sign-in name is reserved. You will need to reactivate your account by going to : http://www.hotmail.com/ and typing in your sign-in name and password. If your account remains "Inactive" for 90 days, Hotmail permanently deletes it and any stored messages. "  so says Mr Microsoft, however there is no warning and your membership to the community remains in a state of limbo so when you re-join can't use your original 'nickname' or email address.

Looking foward to the Exeter - all I have to do now is put the engine and gearbox back in and get an MOT......

Merry Christmas all!

Virus Warnin from Mike Furse

Hi Gassers,
 
Mike Furse has sent out an e-mail warning of a virus circulating amongst triallers. I looked it up on the Symantec Site and they say this could be a "hoax virus" (Whatever that means.). Anyway this is the link to what Symantec (Norton) have to say.

Typo in Exeter Route Card

Being extremely organised with Christmas things this year gave me the opportunity to go through the Exeter Route Card the other night.  Either I had got completely befuddled (it was quite late) adding 186 minutes (plus 15) to all the standard times or there is a minor typo towards the end of the route card.  It appears that we need to travel back through time after the final section - whilst we all know that Dudley could do this it might prove difficult for us mere mortals!
