Just a few shots from my clubs pre 57 (ish) trial championship.The event was held at Vickers farm in Leicestershire.We have 3 in the girder fork class (a 250 Japette,a 500 Levis and my 350 panther). I only managed to break my decompression lever and snap a clutch lever off when the bike stop at the top of a bank.If i had 30 foot long legs i would have been fine. :D



and some videos

Another video of our latest event.held at Earl Shilton trial ground.Our trials are renowned for having mud and this one didn't disappoint.I ended up videoing as I broke a footrest of my panther.(mainly due to my crappy welding). But I think i was on for a cricket score anyway.

Great stuff, nice to see some old rigid's still been used in anger....Beyond your control i know,but a shame the 2 strokes queuing up were drowning out the bikes riding the section.

Hi Guy's.
BRILLIANT<
We So So need more of these type of trials events. :thumbup:

And these just needed a bit more advertising (Perhaps on here) to make us aware of the event. :icon_salut:

Then I bet the entry would have been twice the size it was, and with more spectators to get intrested in this side of the sport. Or am I only bashing my head again? :wall: :wall:

Regards Charlie.
