Reading Dicko's page three blurb this week he goes on about how well off road riding is doing in the UK, and finishes the topic with a question, [is off road riding ready for the big time?] I don't now about the MX & Enduro scene, but from a trials point of view I think the events like the Scot and SSDT, and Brit national events are doing well run by the clubs! who are left alone to do what they think best for the event, on the other hand the events promoted by the big euro promoters in a way they know best, look to be doing p*** poor for entries and spectator participation. So in answer to the question is off road riding ready for the big time, I just hope the big time doesn't get it hands on events like the Scott and SSDT, Richmond and E.D.M.C are making a lot better job of promoting trials than some so called promotors who's job is only to promote, in my opinion.
