October 10, 200718 yr I was just wondering if any clubs/championships ever offer prize money? Does the British championship give out cash? If I was to offer a sum to the winner of an event, how much would it need to attract a top entry, or is it a waste of money?

October 10, 200718 yr The Sidcup club have given prize money for a trial which is a little different from the norm in the south east trials scene (sidcup 30 trial). all i can say is if there is no major national trial on that weekend there can be riders riding who are of a very good calibre which i may only see at the sidcup 30 event. I think the prize money ranges from

October 10, 200718 yr we ran a trial aimed at experts and youth a for while and had prize money for the experts, sourced by a resourcefull chap in the club getting sponsorship. in the end low entries, a really tight calander (on both our part and the trials world) and the loss of a key organsier meant we could no longer put on the event

Couldn't agree more..... if there were some youths! For years we ran four youth championships with trophies to the Top three in each class.

Everyone who rode commented how good the trial was but there just doesn't seem to be any youngsters in our catchment area.
