February 15, 201610 yr How about the MCC's trials? Around 200-300 miles for the event, and often a ride to the start on Friday night, and back home again on the Sunday. Mostly on the road but with a few lanes to get to the sections, about half of which are done in the dark. Smallest bike I've done one on is a Beta Alp 200. The ride back from Cornwall after the Land's End on Easter Sunday is a tradition . I wouldn't want to ride one on a modern trials bike though.
February 18, 201610 yr Furthest I ever rode to a trial was about 35 miles either way, trial was 3 laps of 12 to 15 miles. Had to carry 2 cans of petrol and refill one on way home. Bult 325 was pretty good on the road. Decent seat and I had it geared up so first was where second should be.
