Title: TS185 Twinshock Enduro 17/05/09
Post by: Loydee on May 22, 2009, 02:07:30 am

As mentioned on here previously this is footage of the latest (very wet) Midland Classic enduro
that featured numerous PEs and RMs - even a coupla TS :-).
It was great fun as usual even though
my wheel locked up and I lost half an hour.Turned out the brake plate had broken
into several pieces, never experienced that before! We just removed it, the
shoes and torque arm and I managed to carry on til the end, 33rd of 55. Good job I've got 3 TS185s in the shed!
Hope you all like it, there's also videos of last months Twinshock enduro as
well.

Good Stuff 8). Looks like you gave yourselves and the bikes a good work out. 33rd ain't too shabby on a TS185 with no rear brake ;) :). There's something to be said for lightweight hey ;D.

Yeah MX250, can't beat weight saving, getting carried away what with burning a bit off me tank last month  ;D . To be honest didn't use the rear brake much anyway -too slippy... On one of the other un-posted vids a bike ran in the back of me rear wheel (sprocket side) perhaps the shock transferred!  ::). Well it was a CCM 525... :)
