Another Part of 8th September 2018

We continued our involvement in a developing trials community in Vanuatu.  Today we went to a property in the upper reaches of the catchment area for the Teouma River. We rode Ethel there, it took around 30 minutes down a long series of farm tracks on private properties that the public do not get access to.  A beautiful back-country part of Vanuatu. In some parts it reminded us of New Zealand country side (except maybe for the coconut and banana palms, pawpaw and mango trees.😄)

Annette drove Ethel and I was the passenger. She did well, Annette that is, though Ethel did well too.

It has been a great opportunity for me to help the riders in Vanuatu develop the Vanuatu Trials Championship. Many riders are from an enduro background, and are learning about the feet up skills for the first time.

Annette helped to set up the sections.  I stood on the sections and gave instructions where to put the section markers (boundaries to the section course)


View over the valley where we held the trial


Some great rocks, we could easily hold expert standard trials here



Lunch stop or maybe just a chance for a chat.
