Hello all I am new to trials after competing in my first trial with waltham chase club on the 20th may The Hobnail Trophy Open trial Steep Marsh. I am looking at doing the Penselwood trial with the Blackmoore vale club but I can't find any reviews for this ride. So am looking for any reviews for the ride and what it is like? I am a beginner so only ride the yellow routes at the moment and wonder if the ride would suit me. Many thanks chris

Anybody know who won?

With the rising popularity of Twinshocks and Aircooled Monos in UK Trials, with separate classes and the Kia Championship, does anyone think it will be extended for early watercooled Monos, say pre 1995, in the future Say Aprillia Climber/Beta Synt/Yam TYZ and the like?

I've got an entry for the Cleveland Trial, and as this includes public roads, would it be advisable to work out how to get the lights wired back onto my bike? What do most other folks do? It is road reg, taxed and insured. Will there be any scrutineering issues if no lights?

Just had word from the Bootle SC. that the Presidents cup trial (Round of the Novogar championship) has been cancelled which makes the next 1 in September. Nevermind

Hi guys,I fell off again and this time broke the welded plate on my middle exhaust box,I took it to a local welding firm who tried to aluminium weld it, it wouldn’t take. So can anyone please advise what type of welding I need for this or if it’s possible. It looks as if it had been done before as there was splatter and burn holes,cheers guys

The first round of the Welsh Championship is just around the corner, this time run by the Mid Wales Centre, on 5th Feb 2006 at Builth Wells - 10.30am start. Although there are rules to be able to qualify for championship points, the trial is open to all riders, and we have a regular group of entries from across the border. Three courses - Championship, Clubman, then Masters which is a mixture of the two. For classes see the regs. Entries are

Has anyone got an entry list for the West of England?

It is being widely reported that Mr Dabill aboard the Montesa 4Rt is the first four stroke winner of theSSDT in 31 years since Sid Lampkin in 1966 on a BSA now when I went to school 2007 minus 1966 was 41 So am I right in thinking its 41 years ?

Hello all - has anyone got conformation of entry through for Sunday's Trial in Hook woods. I haven't heard either way.

hey, has anybody got the results from the berkhamsted trial at brickhill on the 28th? thanks Jack

There must of been a fair few trials under the new rules that have been run including a national. How did you like riding or observing under them. Did they lead to bigger queues, are they easier to ride, is observing easier etc. etc.

i have been in touch with gail at earl shilton trials club, to ask if the, all fools trial, on the 16th of this month would cater for me, a complete novice and she said yes, i can just turn up on the day, a friend of mine as said he can take me as long as he is not working away from home, i was just wondering if any of the earl shilton club members could give me some idea what to expect, things like is it rocky or muddy, that kind of thing. regards Tony

It might come as a great shock to the public, but I am no longer riding a Montesa. Whilst this may only be a temporary situation, dependant on the proposed Montesa 4 stroke, I have now switched to a 290 Sherco. To be totally honest this was a spur of the moment decision. Knowing that the reign of the Cota 315 is coming to and end I thought to would be an ideal opportunity to start afresh for the new year. Having spent most of my 6 years trialing on a Montesa I am hopeful that the change might provide much needed improvement to my riding. I will report back to the forum with my honest thoughts on the Sherco and how I am getting on. It goes without saying that the Montes…

A fellow trials rider and road trial fan sent me this link to a Derbyshire council survey on the counties paths and trails. Theres a section for off road vehicles and it even mentions trials bikes. www.derbyshire.gov.uk Survey can be filled out online only takes a minute or two well worth the time to let them no we use these trails as well..
