Trials Dates for 2012

Most Club Championship rounds are 'self-marking', i.e. not observed: We ask you please to mark yourselves preferably in groups, accurately, and not to alter the course in any way, and to ensure the rules of trials riding are properly observed. ie all sections to be ridden in order, and once only per lap. Club officials will this year be more vigilant with regard to 'creative marking', which it has been noted has occured in some instances- it will not be tolerated, and any rider caught deliberately cheating (because that is what it is) will be asked to leave the course, and may be expelled from the club.

All events start at 10.30 am, unless stated otherwise- check before turning out, these are provisional dates/venues only. Observers/helpers are always needed, please volunteer if you can

  • Note: New classes added to trials: Twinshock on red route, and Over 65 on yellow route.
  • All trials will now be run under TSR 22 B non stop rules, in line with most other ACU affiliated clubs
  • Awards night: 6th February, 2012, at Hare Hill Club , (see club night on News page for details on venue) Please attend and support the club- Kindly let Bob Brown or Simon Ward know well in advance if you will be attending so that suitable and sufficient catering (provided at no charge) can be arranged.
