Another excellent 'words of wisdom' write-up Greg!
Really enjoy reading your views on the trials world. My only comment is that women/mums do lose our sanity sometimes, related to trials. It's usually at the end of the day, when everyone is tired, we've just driven a couple of hours home, the trials gear is absolutely filthy (requiring several days soaking in nappysan), the aches and pains are starting to be the 'attention seeking' topic of conversation, and the question beckons......
What's for dinner?????
Hey, sounds like one of those days coming up tomorrow at NSW round 4!!!! At least there won't be any surprises in store.

Re: Trials Tales #7
HI Maree,
Yes, it seems that being a trials mum is no piece of cake.
I usually buy fish and chips on the way home from a trial to keep the peace. But I too must admit to have come home with a load of dirty gear, tetchy kids and a desire to quietly retire to a warm bed.
Hope round 4 goes well and we all stay sane (within normal parenting limits at least).

Re: Trials Tales #7
God Greg,
I made my son (Yes the one I've been chasing for years) read your latest work.
He didn't get it.
Just wait till he gets older & has kids.
I spent yesterday at Pacific Park with my Father & my Son in tow.
Wonder if Dad still feels like he's chasing me around now he's well into his 70's.
Keep up the great work (and buy a bike for yourself, not just the kids)

Re: Trials Tales #7
Yes great article Greg.
I swear you must've tailed me for day to write it!
After two kids' bike purchases over the past couple of years, I think it must be my turn for an upgrade this year!
Regards,
