Thanks all for the help. I'll have to speak to some rules/decision makers I guess. I wasn't sure if it was something which could be done without competing or where I would stand insurance wise. Spent, once I get a few bits figured out, I may well take you up on that offer. Thanks guys, Rich

Hi all, I'm hoping someone can give me some advice/help concerning the following. I have ridden road bikes for over 20 years but 6 weeks ago had an operation to have a brain tumour removed. The tumour was in the visual part of the brain and the surgery means that I no longer have any peripheral vision on my right hand side. Sadly the vision loss applies to both eyes and so I can no longer hold a DVLA licence. The impairment means that I can't see anything to my right hand side which is frustrating because whilst I can physically ride a bike, I can't perceive hazards approaching thus it is too dangerous for me to either ride on a road or ride in close proximity to other moving vehicles. Ironically, I had been looking at how to start some off road riding, however, recent events have obviously spurred that on. In essence, I'm trying to find out if it is possible to start trials riding without either a DVLA or an ACU licence. Thanks for your help, Rich
