4. Curt Comer & David Pyle | The First Trial des Nations
<p>In 1984, the very first Trial des Nations took place in Soviet-controlled Poland — and David Pyle, Curt Comer, and Morgan Kavanaugh made up the U.S. team. More than four decades later, David and Curt sat down together for the first time to talk about that historic week.</p><p>Recorded at the AMA Hall of Fame in Pickerington, Ohio during Ryan Young's induction weekend, this episode dives into what it actually took to get there: disassembling trials bikes into airline luggage, packing your own pre-mix and tools, navigating customs with a fiberglass gas tank as your carry-on, and being assigned a Polish national escort the moment you cleared the airport. David and Curt share stories of staying with local families, trading every sticker and t-shirt for handmade leather goods, dodging the propaganda on state radio, and the gas-rationed, mud-soaked, eighteen-section trial itself.</p><p>We also talk about how organically the team came together (no formal selection process — just Marilyn Wicker fundraising at the nationals with a stack of t-shirts), the through-line from Plonker's Press to On the Pegs Magazine, what it meant to walk into that stadium under the U.S. flag, and how the 2025 Men's Trial des Nations win connects back to the foundation laid in '84.</p><p>A rare, firsthand look at where U.S. trials on the world stage really began — from two of the riders who started it.</p><p><a href="https://on-the-pegs.com/2026/05/12/ep-4-david-pyle-curt-comer-first-trial-des-nations/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">FULL EPISODE NOTES</a> | <a href="https://www.mototrials.com/tdn.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">SUPPORT TDN</a></p>
