NSE Posted April 25, 2007 Report Share Posted April 25, 2007 (edited) Politics aside I have a serious question for those organising the U.K. BikeTrial Championships.When will the final dates for you championship rounds be published?Through my business I sponsor/support a fair few riders. Any one that has ever asked me for sponsorship will know I put a lot of store in a rider’s ability to win competitions and championships, regardless of who is organising them. We have one well organised Championship running in the U.K. with dates available so as competitors may make plans. Unfortunately the other championship with BIU recognition, (for what its worth), remains incomplete, when and where are the rounds? The number of events has gone up from two to four, but there were supposed to be more.People need to make plans if they are to attend, holidays need to be booked, some would like to take in a UCI World Cup or a Spanish round etc, we are ¼ of the way through the year and still the dates are not available, nor is the format, please get your act together.Further more I think it is ludicrous for U.K. BikeTrial to engineer a clash with Tykes two day event, why cause further unnecessary division? Tykes date has been common knowledge for many months I would have thought at the very least it would have been polite to avoid it.Fred Savage.

Mark W Posted April 25, 2007 Report Share Posted April 25, 2007 My interest in competing in any of the national rounds is inversely proportional to the amount of organisers there are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boon racoon Posted April 26, 2007 Report Share Posted April 26, 2007 since when have the village people been running comps i wish they did. it'd probably be better and less gay than the current fiasco. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trialsalot Posted April 26, 2007 Report Share Posted April 26, 2007 too old for comps in my opinion Joe. boon hit the nail on the head by using "fiasco" when words used should be fun. i am not sayin that comps are not fun and i have had a right laugh at a YMSA but at the back of my mind there is always the past events and i just lose interest. the people who can still compete and ignore the events i have the upmost respect for but for me this side of things is not so rosy.craig Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark W Posted April 27, 2007 Report Share Posted April 27, 2007 In that people's descriptions of stuff as being in "Mid Wales" have been fairly vague before, any chance you could PM me and let me know roughly where it is? I may be back in Llandrindod that weekend for my sister's birthday so it'd be cool to go check it out if it's anywhere near the centre of Powys.
