montman Posted December 20, 2003 Report Share Posted December 20, 2003 You need to send a passport photo. Form can be downloaded from ACU website. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bikespace Posted December 20, 2003 Report Share Posted December 20, 2003 As far as I know you still need photo. Link below for application form: http://www.acu.org.uk/PDFs/2004_licence_application.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hrc2002 Posted December 20, 2003 Report Share Posted December 20, 2003 If your downloading the form, just put the photo, with name and d.O.B on the back of the photo INSIDE the letter (when it is folded up to go in the envolope). Dont put it in the envolope by itself, otherwise they might not see it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nigel dabster Posted December 21, 2003 Report Share Posted December 21, 2003 Are you not allowed to ride on an AMA license? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the artist formerly known as ish Posted December 21, 2003 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2003 (edited) I would need an AMA international license, which requires you also have their medical insurance, they once had to fly a rider home to the USA for treatment so it is very expensive. Being a British citizen I have access to the good old national health system, bottom line it's a lot cheaper to join my old club and get a british license.

overthehill Posted December 21, 2003 Report Share Posted December 21, 2003 Is it ok applying for a licence if you dont live in England? - if so I am tempted to apply for one (as I am a member of Conset club but live in Scotland) - our very own SACU charge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boofont Posted December 21, 2003 Report Share Posted December 21, 2003 So is it ok to ride Scottish trials on an English licence then? I too am a member of an English club but have not thought of getting a licence through them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the artist formerly known as ish Posted December 22, 2003 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2003 Never thought of it like that Boofont, has a brit, I did what was required to be legal to ride the scottish, if I was American I would have to go with the AMA!!!! because I'm a brit living in U.S. does it mean I have a choice? don't know but why ask why if the ACU license is cheeper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rabie Posted December 22, 2003 Report Share Posted December 22, 2003 most Scottish event (SACU) are like open to centre events - only SACU riders can ride with SACU license higher events - ie nationals - eg SSDT - you could but if you have an SACU licence why ???? for the English, welsh, IOM and channel island - you're ACU, you pay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the artist formerly known as ish Posted December 22, 2003 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2003 as your a Brit you *should* be OK bodging, if you were a yank though......... Should be ok bodging whats bodging about riding for your own country? Maybe you could help me then, what country should a Englishman ride for? Doug is Spanish champion, also spends a lot of time there, should he ride for Spain? Me thinks you would be the first to p*** and moan if he did.
