Trials Reviews & Previews

Looks like being just a little different this year!! Will have more news soon!

Me and a couple of mates are riding the Gerald Simpson Trial this week. We are making the long trip from daaaarnnn saaaaartthh, we have even got a <mention of this company is not permitted on Trials Central> booked so we can have a bit of hero talk in the pub the night before. Looking forward to a good road event. Has anyone on here ridden it recently? Whats it like? Are any of you riding this year? Hopefully see you there. I'll be the one with a Union Jack on my lid, in a heap on the floor with the bike on top of me mumbling something along the lines of "i hate ******* rocks"

Learnt at todays West Leeds trial that Horsforth have had to move the club trial from Ramsgill to Stump Cross due to flooding.

The entry list is out for the Union Jack Classic trial run by the Stratford-Upon-Avon Club on Sunday. Scottish Classic winner Neil Gaunt is a hot favourite but he will have stiff opposition from a field of very experienced competitors including, Mick Ash, Jon Bliss, Peter Salt, Steve Clarke, Nic Draper, Martyn Goodall and a numer of others. Also look out for some good trail bike riders who might just take the win, Honda mounted Keith Wells and Dave Eeles always go well in this event. The route takes in some excellent trials riding terrain and covers 35 miles and 35 sections. A bumper entry of 102 riders will start two per minute at 9.30 from Downs farm near Bourton-on…

Noticed the first Rochdale evening trial was held last week. Anyone got the dates for the others?

Who's riding then?

Hi everyone,i am going to the Barnsley trial on 14/05 and was hoping for some directions,i am coming from Ossett in Wakefield.Cheers and see you there.

Just to let you all know that this years IOW two day trial on May 6/7 is filling up fast. Over 60 entered already with about 3 weeks left to enter, as its limited to 150 i'd get in soon or you may miss out. Trial will be organised by same team as did last years youth nationals, and this years ladies round so you know it will be good, some well known youth riders have already entered.

Hello, Could anyone give me a tip on how to get here please? im abit unsure, I'll be coming from cudworth way, could go past <mention of this company is not permitted on Trials Central> ?? Anyone any ideas? as id like to go, Thanks Matt

Ok so anybody (else) here go and what did you think? My thoughts were that only one of the sections (Two on the hard course), caused a problem although the bow waves coming out of section 5 were impressive!!!. As a guide there is more land available further up the hill but it needs a bit of clearing.

The regs for the newly named Allie Beag are now available to download on the Lochaber web site. Sorry for any delay but Like Andy we suffered , some lowlifes seem to take delight in creating viruses

Did anyone out there do the bradford begginner/novice at halton gill on saturday? What did you think of the 2 routes?,I thought that a couple of the novice sections were easier than the begginers!,especially the one at the top just through gate on the left.But i aint moaning,it was a great day,great people,superb venue,sunshine and FREE beer after!! .It doesnt get better than that!

For my sins, I have written up a report, so here you go. My Pampera had its first MOT on Saturday, and I removed the race numbers from the last time I had used it (Surrey Pol in October). Loaded the van on Saturday, and then went out to dinner with a crowd from the N. Kent TRF, and some others who had come down from the Midlands to do the event. Saturday night it rained. Sunday morning when I got up it was raining, and so I thought about unloading the van and going back to bed. Un-enthusiastically, I drove to Maidstone, scrutineered, signed on, and got a cup of coffee. At least the sun was now shining, but I still wasn

Great trial at DEWS FARM well done HUX (Did Sam really set those sections?) Excellent variety Did not give in a SAE any one know the results?

40 sections, sunshine, rocks, mud, steep hills and splendid panorama views from the transport route Mendip Vale did a great job Is there any one who has the resuls? Cheers Thomas

I was just wondering what the Knock trial in bathgate is like. Ive heard the distances between the sections is pretty big.

any body ridden here today.it was very cold and wet but the club did a superb job in the terrible conditions.

Hi Anyone having difficulty downloading entry forms for this trial? Says there is nothing on the page the club is giving a link to Cheers
