I am the Membeship Secretary for the Stratford-Upon-Avon club and one of our members has recently had a problem with his affiliation renewal and I thought that I'd maybe jog some memories

It turns out that; through a genuine mistake (not the riders!) his application form wasn't processed by the ACU as it had not been signed by a club. He had ridden in an event and the ACU picked up on this.

The ACU emailed him explaining "it has been suggested that the problem of Trials riders entering events without a valid Registration card is increasing and it is for this reason that the Trials & Enduro Committee have decided to ‘sample’ various events this year to check on the validity of Trials Registration cards."

This case has now been resolved but I thought it worth mentioning that there seems to be riders who do not have current affiliations and therefore are not covered to ride in events.
