Heath ....

Born in Battle, East Sussex in 1965.. Agricultural Engineer by trade but now an ADSL/ISDN Engineer for BT in the Weston-Super-Mare area.. Also spent 4 years in the motorcycle trade and 2 years living in South East Australia.

Started Moto-Trials at age of 7 on a 25cc Montesa but first rode a bike when 5 years old (an NSU quickly!!) Won some club championships over the years in the GEST club in East Sussex and was North Kent Combine Inters Champ in the early 90's riding a 5 year old Fantic 305!

Started cycle trials in 1998 when no money available for a motorcycle but now back to the moto stuff. Rides a 2005 Beta 250 Rev3 that has been personalised .. .. owns and runs this site, so you know who to blame now!!!

... into Electric Blues and good old Rock (ac/dc, Zepplin, Peter Greens fleetwood mac etc)

  Barry ....

... The world famous Barry. Probably the most photographed Trials rider about these days.... you can always get a good action shot when Barry is on the bike, or off it as is often the case!!!

Had a very nasty and uncommen accident in October 2006 when he stepped off the back of the bike only to fall onto it and have his finger severed by the rear sprocket.... on the way to recovery now and, as with Stu, is up and running again as of January 2007.... but with a shorter middle finger on his left hand.

Been riding with us for a year and has changed from a Scorpa Easy to a 2004 Beta rev3... and now an Ex Steve Saunders 2007 Beta rev3.

... if he could he would eat, sleep and fart Trials... but he has given up eating to afford the new bike!!

 Picture:- Likes to be called Bethany at the weekends.......

  Kevin .....

First met Heath at a local trial whilst riding a TY yam twinshock.. Then purchased Rich's 97 GasGas to bring him into the modern era.. progressed to a 2000 GasGas 280 and then purchased a 2003 270 Beta Rev3 from r2w member Stu.... But now has what he really wanted, a 2006 200 Beta rev3.

. He comes out to play most weekends, sometimes with his lad Leo who is riding the 2003 Rev3. He has only recently started to ride Comps and is still on the learning curve. There is a good friendly rivalry between him and Colin for the best results at local trials.... and a few bets with Barry!

He lives in the Shirehampton area of Bristol and is our resident computer and media expert... but not a geek!! (well, not totaly!) and i have to say, one of the funniest blokes i have ever met when drunk!!

  Tony .....

After periods of inactivity, trials wise, Tony went all modern on us.. He exchanged an old Bultaco for a 2003 GasGas Pro... now sold that and just has the cycle trials bike.
Tends to join us in the winter once his British bike meets have finished... sometimes!! I think the most he rode the Gasser was twice a year... may be a few more times than that with the cycle!!!

He lives in Swindon and tests power stations!!

.. Into old Ariels! .. and just about anything else British that will fit into his garage!!

 Stu .....

Recently returned from Hong Kong and now living in Hereford after a spell living in Northampton. He has been riding Beta's for years and presently has a 2005 Rev3.

Has just become a Dad for the first time and is a professional musician by trade... these day teaching music. He is still getting used to riding in the British mud after many years away!!! Had a trial related accident recently and broke his wrist, back to normal now... whatever that is !!

Now he has moved closer to the other r2w crew we will hopefully be able to meet up soon for some playtime in Wales.....

  Chris .....

Chris is another who has been riding with us for about a year.. we first bumped into him at our regular spot up in Gloucester on a little GasGas (as seen here). Now riding a 2006 Beta rev3 and joins us at many trials and playtimes sessions.

Originaly from South Africa, he is easily picked out... the bloke in a tree with the funny accent !!!

  Richard .....

Originaly from Plymouth.. now lives a stones throw form Heath. He is a Chartered Quantity Surveyor in Bristol working on large projects throughout the area.

He started Trials 6 years ago after several years on Downhill mtb's. Recently took delivery of a new 2004 GasGasPro. His Father, Malcolm, was a top rider in the South West in the 70's but it took living next to Heath to finaly get him on a bike.

He has also recently started riding track days on his Repsol Honda fireblade and a track bike zxr600... and has become very good at crashing both!!!

... into fast cars and loose women but these days gets fast women and loose cars!!!

  Sam.....

From Winterbourne and is Barry's best mate... but he seems ok even so!!! He brought Barry's 2004 Rev3 and has started coming out with us. His job is as a bike mechanic... which is handy now that he has brought Barry's old bike....

He is 25 and Barry reports that his missus likes him so much she lives in Newcastle :-)
