Ask anyone with even the slightest knowledge of Trials what the most famous family name in the sport is and the answer will surely be "Lampkin". Whilst not quite as famous as cousin Dougie, James Lampkin has enjoyed considerable success in his own right culminating in a very respectable third place in the 2004 Scottish Six Days Trial.

Not only is James a talented rider, but he has built up a serious knowledge of the sport at a world-class level having been Dougie's minder for 8 years - including those awesome 7-in-a-row world titles.

Of all the emails that come into Trials Central, a large number are about Trials training. Who's running it, where it is and when so we're delighted to announce that James has decided to start running his own Trials Schools in the UK.

Also, in line with our commitment to promoting and growing the sport, we're pleased to be supporting this venture by providing hosting for Jim's brand new website where you can find details of the training on offer including dates and venues.
