December 3, 200619 yr Hi all I was just wondering if any one is entering the upcoming speed trial at the WOR Tough One? I am a massive fan of such events to the extent that they are the only events I ride now. Except in my events dabs are counted but the rest of the principle is very similar. First one to cross finish line sets standard time, add extra marks on for every minute that passes this time till everyone has finished. The winner is the guy who has least points once time and dabs have been added together. TBH I have only come across this in the south west so people are probably thinking who is this strange idiot is. I would enter the tough one but I have other commitments. Stupid exams More info can be had at http://www.enduronews.com/tough.htm#trial Also if you see at the bottom WOR are going to continue it at certain events this year. So I am going to try and make as many of those as possible. Should be a good laugh if you are interested in such events. May even take up the MX bike so I can ride on the Saturday and the Sunday Thanks Scott Edited December 3, 200619 yr by scott_king
December 3, 200619 yr This is more like it. When i was younger the club's used to put on a lot of speed trial's there real good fun it's something you very hardly see now,well up until now,this is going to take off in a big way. hopefully local club's will start to cater for them again aswell. something has to break the way we ride trial's at the moment because even at club level the sport has become to serious. Hopefully trial's will become fun again. Edited December 3, 200619 yr by bilco
December 3, 200619 yr The Wirrall event is a race over a modified version of the tough one enduro cicuit on trials bikes. Although it's called a speed trial the format is a race, just on trials bikes not enduros/motocross. There are no sections or marks lost for putting feet down, simply first one over the line at the end of the hour wins. Should be really interesting to see who comes out tops on that one as they've some top riders competing. The whole day should provide some great entertainment.
December 11, 200619 yr Author Hi all I have just seen the entry list. Some extremely good riders in there so I think it should be a very close race. Wish I could to go and watch. Taking bets on whose going to win. Odds on favourite David Knight maybe but couldn
