World Championship Chat

Just to say I watched the video Trial GP put up on YouTube. I liked it, cheers

Great trial on Sunday and as ever some unbelievable skills on display. Few thoughts and questions on the event from discussions there and thoughts after Good: Good Venue Very easy to get to all sections Well organised (to a point - see below) and well set up operation Bad: Saturday was spent primarily crowded around only the qualifying section as there was literally nothing else doing (after practice) I like the idea of qualifying and enjoyed it on Saturday but having the whole afternoon around it and that one section seems such a waste Still some huge huge inconsistencies in observing with 1 rider getting a 5 and another getting a 0 for identi…

If the MTB world can put up such a world class event in Swaledale, why can't Trials - for our home GP? I don't see a shortage of access, for artics and the associated Trial GP Circus Show the rest of the world, how good our 'natural' terrain and a bit of rain is

Looks an exciting prospect, in Anglesey https://www.trialscentral.com/news-archive/world-trials/world-outdoor-trials-championship/20518-2019-uk-world-trial-heads-to-wales Who's going to watch then?

I was lucky enough to get to watch the World Championship round at Tong last weekend with a couple of friends and can honestly say that in 40 years of watching all types of motorcycle sport it was the best I have ever seen. The things that Mr Bou, Raga and Dabill etc can do with a motorcycle defies belief....forget Rossi, Marquez and the like, in my opinion these guys are the true Heroes of powered two wheel sport.

Hi! Have you watched the world rounds on Eurosport(2)? Looks like they should look for a new cameraman! Or a new guy to edit the videos together. The coverage is rubbish. Having watched 3 rounds this year: In Sweden they showed most riders in the easy first section and missed out on the deciding sections 7-13. In Spain they missed out on the good sections or showed the easy/non-spectacular part of them (apart from Bou in section 14) (OK filming was hard on the first lap...).

As a Dutch trial fan I have to say I'm absolutely thrilled that Zelhem is on the 2026 TrialGP calendar. It's been a long time coming for the Netherlands and the venue looks fantastic for a world championship round. For those who don't know Zelhem — it's a small village in the Achterhoek region, very rural, perfect trial terrain. The local club has done an incredible job getting this on the FIM calendar. Anyone here planning to make the trip? Would love to connect with fellow fans who are coming. I'll definitely be there covering it for my site.

During the three years that we had a world round event at Hawkstone, Trials Central ran the very successful "Party In The Park" get-togethers. This was a chance for TC users to get together informally, have a few beers and put names to faces. With the world round in Fort William approaching, planning has started on what we're going to do this year. Firstly, there will be NO camping available at the Nevis Range Ski Area so that rules out doing what we did at Hawkstone. Finding another venue where it's possible to set up a secure area with marquee, camping, toilets etc where we're not going to bother anybody with noise is way too much hassle and likely to be very difficul…

Just seen the team (yes I know it I am slow) why no D Lampkin? Was he asked and he refused? or was he just overlooked because he did not compete in this year’s WTC? A few years ago after Graham Jarvis was brought out of retirement to compete in the UK team for the TDN because we did not have enough skill in the lower ranks so why not DL being called out of WTC retirement/.. DL would still beat 3 of the 4 members selected, plus many of the contenders riding the World Championship. Surly he is still good enough to be selected even just for the experience he has. If the selectors decided he was not good enough why not make him team manager? I wish the 4 lads all the bes…

Should we send our best team this year?

after this weeks TMX, noticed the the TdNs is in France at Breal sous Montfort. This is only a couple of km from Rennes and makes a weekend jaunt possible without taking time off on Friday or Monday. Currently thinking of loading up the KTM and ferry Portsmouth -> St Malo on the Friday night (arrive 08.15am Saturday) and Cherbourg -> Poole back Sunday night (19h00 sailing). 2 up on the bike can be done for around

anybody know the mens results?

Just finished watching the Duke DVD reviews of the indoor and outdoor 09 world championship. While previous years reviews i thought have been poor, the 09 series are terrible. The angles and footage of the out door sections are shot as if by an amature. The indoor review fails to show all the sections. These reviews get worse each year. Why is this the case? There used to be different companies that released such reviews, one in particular that was very good, had Woody Hole as narrator. I for one will no longer waste my money on such poor quality DVDs. Interested on other people's thoughs about these DVDs.
