Title: Scottish Six Day Trial!
Post by: themoudie on December 14, 2017, 01:54:58 PM
This is the second programme in the series of Ross Noble tackling the Scottish Six Days Trial. Last weeks initial programme proved humorous, inciteful and Kat and I both enjoyed it.  ;D

Tonight, Thursday, 14th December, 2017, 20:00hrs, on 'Dave' TV Channel.

I am not sure how you might watch last weeks opening episode, but it is worth a try, if you know how!  :-\

My regards, Bill

I did watch the first one after recording it and found it quite good apart from the "jokes". It did show what hard work trials riding is.....

No idea what the daft bloke in the stupid hat was there for however.

I really enjoyed it as I like Ross Noble and trials, however I'm not sure about labelling the SSDT as the most technical race in the world. How about the International Six Days Enduro or Dakar? I could be wrong as the SSDT is obviously one tough event. He's brave to even try.

Really enjoying this program and he's definitely speaking from the heart when he talks about giving it his all and getting nowhere , I know that feeling and it's not nice . All credit to him for giving it a go .

I must admit after watching the second programme I'm warming to Ross. He's certainly trying hard and some of those sections are monsters.

I'm a bit surprised his riding mate isn't a bit more forgiving - he must have realised how much he's be slowed down. Anyway, excellent stuff.
