All, I live in Brookline, NH(03033), just west of Nashua. I will be leaving for Maine about mid-day on Friday, and camping at the event. Maybe we can meet on 95, 495, 3 or 101 at a carpool parking lot. I have a small flatbed trailer that is set up to easily haul 3 bikes. If there are 3 of us, I can also borrow a trailer with sides to haul our bike and gear in. I'll bring basic tools. I am flexible about coming home Sunday or Monday. We can eat meals at the site or find resturants. We can bring individual tents, or I can bring the "Condo Dome", with multiple entrances. Any takers? Bob B (husabob@yahoo.com)

Um, yes. It's on the Blue Hills penninsula, southeast of Bucksport. The event was this past weekend,

and it was really good.

I cannot tell by your post what kind of bikes you have. The Observed Trials event was held entirely on private land owned by the Altman family. Their contact information is on the New England Trials Association homepage. (www.newenglandtrials.org)

Boony,Learn how to turn that thing without dabbing and or balancing on demand is your bigest novice thing,Don't forget to practice this part as it is the game.Obsatcles are placed between and require balanced stops and turns and are where 90% of the Dabs/Falls happen.Turning on sloped loose or wet/gravel and relearning how to get maxium grip no wheel spin when troting through the woods is the game then the obstacles come in as you move up the ranks.It's amazing what I take to the Enduro couse after have riding my trials machine.

Have someone take you under there wing and help out with this part as I can not stress it enough.This is the stuff that makes you a better all around rider.
