February 22, 200917 yr Peak Classic Trials Club held Round 1 of their 2009/2010 Club Championship at Burycliffe Quarry, Elton Derbyshire on Sunday 15th February and made the most of a milder spell in the wintry weather of late. A brief shower of sleet had a few of the 66 entries worried but the threatening snow failed to materialize. Burycliffe had a good covering of the white stuff only days previously but no sign was left by the start of the trial other than the, unusual for Burycliffe, mud of section 9. Due to the weather and the fact that the trial was followed by the presentation of the Championship awards for last season at the Miners Standard pub only 4 laps of 10 sections comprised the test on the day. However nobody stayed clean all day. Steve Garlic came closest on his CCM with a superb ride dropping only 1 mark on that muddy section 9. The Club would like to thank all the riders who competed in the 2008/2009 and extend a warm welcome to all our regular riders and all our future new regulars. The entry of 66 was one of our best for a while so we must be doing something right ! Nice to see 6 entrants on pre 95 air cooled monoshocks, surely one of the cheapest ways to go trialing in these financially challenging times. Our next event is on 15th March at Dudwood Farm and is also an ACU Classic Championship Round.

February 22, 200917 yr Hey OTF is this the one you were introducing the a/c mono class in to a while back to make up the numbers ? If so looks like they are coming out? A/c mono's have their place as well.
February 22, 200917 yr Author Yes mate this is the club. The A C M class is starting to take off. We think it's the way to go as a reasonable TY mono can still be picked up off e bay etc for
