Love riding my aircooled mono beta but as said its differcult to find a class sometimes!!! The changes to the Normandale rounds hasn't helped either!!!
I have a 54 plate Connect, long wheel base semi high top and can fit two trials bikes in, both go in backwards at an angle with the front wheel turned.
Most of the trials split the classes and start in two or three places, you usually find the clerk of the course has made the first section your class rides a little easier to get things going!!!
Being a rider and observer, I always try to have a chat, it's surprising what you can learn, sometimes even get told of the best line to take that only a few riders are doing or better still which muddy hole to avoid!!!
Great trials down here, get the southwest gazette, it has all the trials in the south west centre. Depending on how far you want to travel, there is always a trial on.
When I registered my Beta recently I sent a covering letter with my NOVA form, plus all the other bits, received 3 letters back, two saying I had to pay vat, and the other one saying I didn't have too. So assumed the one with no VAT was the correct one. If you have no luck on the phone try the letter, I just explained why it was only just being registered after 23 years, plus why I wanted to register it now. Perhaps I just got lucky with a bike friendly employee!!!!!
