The 2007 Trial World Championship was thrown into turmoil today after the organisers of the final round of the Championship, due to be held at the famous racetrack at Spa, Belgium on 23rd September announced that they were cancelling the event.

With just the one round in Andorra on 2nd September remaining, it means Toni Bou who has a twenty point lead in the Championship cannot be beaten and is 2007 World Outdoor Trials Champion.

This surprise announcement is certain to cause major shockwaves throughout the sport at world level, not least with the Gas Gas team who's top rider, Adam Raga, was still in with a chance, albeit slim, of retaining his 2006 World outdoor title.

No reason was given for the cancellation, announced by the FIM this morning, however as the release stated the 2007 Prize Ceremony will now take place in Andorra, it is clear no attempt is being made to find a replacement for the Belgian round. This cancellation also affects the second round of the 2007 Ladies Championship which was due to be held on Saturday 22nd September.

More on this as we get it.
