The Stratford-Upon-Avon Club are running a round of the Sammy Miller classic trials championship on 17th May 2009 starting at Downs Farm near Bourton-on-the-Hill in the Cotswolds.

The route of the Union Jack trial has been shortened to just 26 miles this year following comments that a longer route discourages many of the smaller classic machines from entering.

With classes for a wide variety of classic machines including sidecars, the trial will still still visit all the favourite groups such as Dovedale, Scarborough Farm, Saintbury Quarry and Weston Wood. There will also be a return to Top Farm for the popular lunch stop mid way through the day.

Sidecars will start at the front of the entry, followed by Rigids, Pre-65's, Twin Shock's and bringing up the rar of the field trial bikes.

The entry will be limited to the first 120 and the regs are available fromthe Stratford Club Web site HERE

The web site will be updated on a daily basis so that riders can see who has entered.
