Mintex T&O run by Richmond MCC - normally around June time on the same ground as the Scott - 2 laps of 30 sections - about 45 miles total - A and B class riders.
Scott trial but on a smaller scale for the youth riders.
Well yes it dose Why go to a TRIAL which is ONLY a competitive sport then ? you what a non competitive environment WHY go a trial or do you expect to go to a trial and play/trail about on your bike thats not trials or have you found out as a hobby rider you have no were to go to ride (which could be more of the truth) Sorry but the nature of the sport and what it is about dose preclude it from being non competitive
That's like saying you can't buy a football because you only want a kick about and aren't interested in joining the local team.
Lots of people enjoy their bikes and riding for what it is (supposed to be) ...fun and relaxation!
You sound like your going to start press ganging people as your next step.
It may be worth listening to what the people that don't come to trials have to say rather than telling them their just wrong.
i'ld like to spend ages and write a real *long* reply on this whole thread but haven't the time
on this point specifically, we've had the ACU build an online entry system and have had it running for four years now - you pay online, secure, and then you turn up on the day verify you are you and sign on and go. as to how you roll this system out to clubs, to get them to use it, that is a challenge but broadly speaking we've built a system to do it all and its ready for clubs to use.
Yes and it works great bar a couple of little glitches, but not many organisers use it unfortunately
RFX flexi levers - have a look on ebay, Beta clutch mod and run ATF in gearbox - this sorts most of the clutch issues out, Gas Gas front mudguard - al late model one, or I understand a Mont one will also fit, both much more flexible than the stock beta one.
That looks great, that would be a real big step towards solving the issues of directing people to venues.
I have been asked how to get to Hawks nest so many times, very difficult to explain -- now you just need to download the app and go to facing.underline.valid
Guys, ive just fitted bar rises to my bike and the changes are great - but the throttle cable is not long enough - are longer ones available does anyone know?
It is a very snug fit, that was my problem. Ill do a V/notch on the next change. Thanks for the help.
mate have a look at the link to that vid I posted on the trials uk site .. you only need a drift and a hammer and coin the right size - 1p piece ... cheap as chips and works ... simples

There's a club trial at Earl Shilton Trials club on Sunday 1st April.
Why not come and have a look and get a feel for whats what.
Or you could join on the day and just have a go.
Very friendly club, that also runs monthly training days at a very reasonable cost which are a great help.
Club membership for practice is also available at the ground
