A few photos from the Urbain Trial in Cahors

[DerekJ]

The other week I was asking about whether this trial was being held this year... well, it certainly was and what an excellent hot and sunny day.

The field was outstanding... Lampkin, Fujinami, Raga, Cabestany, Bou. In addition there were some other UK riders who we knew from our involvement in UK trials... young Alexz Wigg, James Dabill, Sam Haslam.  Great stuff and a really nice relaxed atmosphere.

Here's a couple of shots.

Dougie Lampkin (7 times consecutive world champ)

Mr Clair seems to have enjoyed it too [:)] and the clouds even cleared for the day!

Yes, it was a really nice day and the overall atmosphere was good.  They had a couple of the sections in the river with a diver on standby.

Here's a few more shots if anyone is interested.
