I often wondered why "submarine" trials didn't get off the ground?

That's a hell of a section obstacle Tim. At least the markers can't tell if you've dabbed or not. 8)

That's really funny- for us. It looks like a decent sized body of water. Can you give us the back story Tim?

That's going a bit far to prove your airbox is better sealed than your so called mates  ;D

Nice one! like Firko I was wondering whether that was a 5 or not too! Don't feel bad - I had a similar experience at a trial. I was pinned under the bike underwater for so long I was trying to get to the tank overflow hose to use it as a snorkel. The observer took his time to help - the spectators were a bit more switched on and dove in to rescue me  >:( :-[

My riding skills had desensitised the observers. They were pretty used to seeing me do stupid things so probably were'n't watching me - just ready to give me the usual 5 when I left the section.

Stalled as I was turning left to go up the bank. I blacked after that (well that's my excuse). Everything was in slow motion as I slid backwards. Front brake didn't work very well backwards. In fact it barely worked going forwards so I slid gracefully into the farm dam. I seem to remember that it was fecking cold. Pic bears this out :)

Got it out, plug out, upside down, top gear and spin the back wheel (a 349 could do a 80 mph in top gear) so it didn't take too long. Squeeze out airfilter, all back together and I was off.
