Hi Folks
After racing and being heavily involed in Supermoto for the past few years, just got into trials through a mate and i,m now hooked, the cost for starters is a bonus compared to what i been used to, but its great fun,gonna give it a few more weeks and then have a go at competition level, novice i guess, whats club would you recomend me joining, live in Dorking, Surrey, do you need a licience for one off events or can you get a day one to try it out and just turn up.
Cheer,s
Daz

Try Horsham riders or RRND in Redhill, both have good grounds and are local for you, you wont be disappointed.

Reigate club also hold some good events. My girl friends family live their do I have seen several of their events but not been able to ride them.

Should be same process as the supermoto license.

Simply join the club and they will stamp your ACU form which you then post with £10 cheque. Simples!

You may need a day license in the short term to ride in club events but thats it.

Hope this helps.
First rule to remember is, always treat your bike, like you treat your women. Get on her five times a day and take her to heaven and back.

download the licene( registration) form off the acu site, put it in an evelope to your club secretary with another SAE envelope to get it to the acu.. whole process takes less tha 10 days..

If you have a current ACU road racing licence then that will cover you for trials riding. :thumbup:

Next year, if you are not intending to race, just get the cheaper trials registration and you won't need a medial either.
You will probably still need to join the trials club unless you are member of a racing club in the same centre and the trial is an open to centre event.

I've probably made this sound more complciated than it actually is, but I hope it helps.

Pete
