UK Trials Talk

Hi people , anybody know anybody thats works at Boothham Engineers Scarborough , had some forks legs rehard chromed a number of years ago there , i've lost his contact number , maybe retired now anyway ...Cheers

After riding trials for over 35 years, also having a few years off with family commitments - The Long Mynd 2 Day Trial has to be the best trial I've ridden in the UK. (entries were full within 24 hrs of release) say no more. South Shropshire MCC do a fantastic job in every aspect, a fabulous team effort. The land and route used are 2nd to none - to be fair the team are planning months ahead. Report and pictures sent to the Media and guess what, no pictures published, just a small section published even though the editor was contacted. Why do others get a full page of pictures on a club trial ? This is not the first time this has happened and it totally brasses me of…

Hi, I have been looking at the forum for a while now, bought a bike and entered a couple of trials but this is my first post for which I hope is not an unfortunate subject. I live in Gloucestershire and the local dealer that has been around for many years, BVM have posted on their on-line shop that the 'site is down for maintenance' for a week now and they also don't answer the phone. Does anyone know their position?

Photos from the British Trials Championship rounds run by Hookwood and Witley clubs are on the TVTC website http://www.thamesvalleytrials.co.uk/ Mick

Steve, Will be holding one of his ever popular trials schools at Newcastleton on Saturday 13th August - The day before the Kia Twinshock Championship round. There are currently a couple of places left. Please message me with your e mail details for more information. Cheers as Always The Wobbler

Morning all. Summer has barely arrived on these shores and the Scott regs are out! Besides riding the trials bike for hours on end flat out what do you good people think is the best preparation for it? Cycling, running etc?

Is tomorrows trial suitable for a beginner, is there an easy route? cheers

Are there any trials on this weekend in the midlands?

Does anyone know if this trial will be ok for an absolute beginner, is there an easy route?

Appears to be a bit of anti European sentiment about today. I feel it would be appropriate to join in by riding only UK built machines this weekend. Please try to make an effort and remember Dunlop Trials Universals only.

Once again a great trial well organised and supported, has anyone got any photo's to post or share?

Question for all you good folks who give up their valuable time cutting out & marking the sections. Do you have a estimate in your heads of the marks the section is likely to take ,thereby having a winning score per class/route at the end of the event. Be interested in your thoughts ,comments. Cheers Folks.

Hi can anyone tell me all the clubs around Barnard Castle and Bishop Auckland. especially any with practice grounds? kind regards chris wade

Anybody had any results from last Sunday's Market Drayton MCC trial? Email address went on the entry form, but nothing yet... Cheers Roger

Hi all, I might be interested in joining a club if there is one locally enough, I live near Fleet in Hampshire UK. Any club would need to have suitably talentless members as not to make me feel too uncomfortable, of course. I would appreciate any ideas! Cheers, Ralpher.

Hi has anyone got a contact or know if camping is available at the venue

After a couple a spokes snapping and being replaced by myself it looks my rear wheels is now out of true. Not really having the knowhow of how to fix it does anyone know of anywhere in Leeds, Wakefield, York areas that I could pop it in for them to do?

Looking back on some of the top riders in Nationals what happened to Paul Rose from Sheffield. A good steady rider and very well mannered.

Jason Lawler another lad from the South West area

What happened to Martin Richards (Cornwall area). Another National rider in the 80s 90s
