April 24, 201313 yr Lets call it what it is , Trials Racing. It sure doesn’t look like Enduro and the best riders have heavy Trials back grounds. The Brazil track even had sections of difficult terrain followed by connecting loops. Maybe that will be the future of Moto Trials. Instead of hard to score “Non-Stop” just let them ride through the tough sections and keep time. Fastest finisher wins or is that Enduro then? Another idea was instead of Freestyle Motocross (Moto X) were they get scored on their Tricks make it FreeTryal (X Trial already taken), were a panel of judges evaluates the style, trick difficulty, and originality and produces a score on a 100-point scale. Easily adapted to Moto X or Skate Park course. Then we can leave “Observed Trials” the way it was when it started all this extreme riding. Thoughts from an old Yanker
