February 29, 200818 yr I'm just returning to trials after a very long lay off and was wondering if there are any practice venues around the Gloucester area? I want to see if I can still do it before entering a competitive trial. Cheers.
February 29, 200818 yr Try Nettleton quarry open 10.30am sat/sun novice to expert something for everyone, they have a web site you can access it through r2w trials web site,
March 1, 200818 yr is there any restrictions on these venues??? i.e. are we allowed to be there? how much? club membership etc. also a little more detail on location please
March 1, 200818 yr No no restrictions for Aggs look for hope hill by the other GCHQ (not the donut) on an OS map and follow the road to the pilons at the top 1/2 mile before on the left you will find the quarry. Nettleton is on the A417 2 miles ish from the Air Baloon pub heading towards Swindon and just before the roundabout its on your left. As for Kilkenny its on the A436 by the pub in the on the way to Andoversford hope tis helps.
March 2, 200818 yr Thanks is it a case of just turning up ? and how much do they charge ? and are they open every weekend ?
March 3, 200818 yr If anyone needs the tel number for Top Farm please pm me and I will pass on the details.
March 13, 200818 yr Author Talking to the chap who serviced my heating he used do a bit of trials and said that the Police often go up Aggs on their off roaders but usually just waved as they rode passed. He also said Cheltenham council used to advertise Kilkenny as a practice venue until some one sued them after breaking their leg So now they don't endorse it but it is still know as a practice venue. Had my first afternoon up Aggs Well I say afternoon it was only an hour and I was knackered but it was good to be back on a trials bike more practice and a bit of phys and I may enter a comp.

We were up there 12-18 months ago and a copper on a white XR250 pulled up and checked the registration details of my car and trials bike, but had no problem with us being there.
