October 4, 200718 yr For those of you who don't bother reading the front page, entry forms for both the Pre-65 and the SSDT are now available from the SSDT website.
October 4, 200718 yr mines in the post!! cheers That's a bugger, HL chucks the first 50 in the bin without looking.
October 11, 200718 yr So look who gets his photo on the Todo site under the SSDT entries open article ....now that they are sponsored by Montesa? oops ...4th was wrong gear Fame (and fortune?) at last ...must be justification for another trip for a boot full of bogwater.
November 29, 200718 yr Author Here's Bob with a quick reminder....! SSDT entries close a week from now - Friday 7th December is the final date for accepting entries, so if you want to be in with a chance of riding the best trial in the whole wide world, get your entry form sent in this weekend!
December 16, 200718 yr Author Right folks - there's still a few entries on their way to us, but I know how you like your facts and figures...Slapshot and Big John being particularly fond of the figures element! We've had 395 entries so far, including 11 under-18s and 120 OAPs. Of the 395, 90 are complete newcomers - Gizza's stories obviously haven't scared too many of them off yet! I suspect there's a good 10-15 more than that - there's a lot of young entrants with names I don't recognise from previous years, but they haven't marked themselves as newcomers on their entry forms so they're not included in that total, not for now anyway. As usual, most of the entrants hail from our own shores. There's 90 European entrants, 2 Manx competitors, 9 from further afield and the remaining 294 are from in and around the UK. Mostly Yorkshire actually! 24 folk are keeping their bike details a closely-guarded secret, but of the rest there are 128 4-strokes and 243 2-strokes. As for the brands, it's all change this year with Beta sailing up the stats! They've got 103 entrants, Montesa are hot on their heels with 100, GasGas are next with 78, then it's Sherco with 52 then Scorpa with 34 plus 4 Yams. No Xispa as yet...but rumour has it that we might have a couple of 250s on their way! That's it for now - I'm off for my dinner. Two full days sorting that lot out is more than enough for one weekend. Edited December 16, 200718 yr by Highland Lassie

And thats bog all to do with numbers.....thanks Petal Thats a bit down on last years absolute total bout 420 or so wasn't it?????
December 17, 200718 yr Author Thats a bit down on last years absolute total bout 420 or so wasn't it????? Yup, it's down a wee bit....thought I might get away without a ballot this year for a while, but no such luck!! Still, it's fantastic that there's so much interest in the trial, and particularly good that there's such a high volume of newcomers. Can't be a bad sign for the trials scene!
