Alex Dark Posted November 22, 2007 Report Share Posted November 22, 2007 http://www.biketrialuk.co.uk/Depends how good you are regarding what class you eneter...it's best to start off low i guessyou'd probably be better off going to one to watch first, checking out how hard the routes are, then trying it yourself so you can get a rough idea of what level you're riding at relative to the other people at the events......For a lot of them you need a membership ( annual membership @ £10 a year ) and i think it's an acu card...dont hold me on that though as im not entirely sure......Hope ive been of some help!

Muel Posted November 23, 2007 Report Share Posted November 23, 2007 Just go and don't take it too seriously, I did the last YMSA, I got a 5 on my first section.I came third overall! Out of three.But, the point I am trying to make is, eerrm, just do one, have fun, don't give a shit about the end number. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go. It is actually fairly technically challenging. to be honest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hugh_b Posted November 24, 2007 Report Share Posted November 24, 2007 (edited) cheers guys, and yea im probs better on natty then street.... if you saw where we live youd see why lol..... what level does hugh barker enter at?? i might give that a try looking at his new vidi did do expert at ymsa (it's inbetween expert and elite at a club like essex for example) manly because i have only started riding again this year and on a bigger bike, but to be fair my vid's never ever show how good a rider i can actually be and half the stuff looks so much smaller than it is. I'm riding elite next year which is going to be ummmm interesting lol. Also remember competitions are quite different to just practicing natural, most things need to be cleaned first time everytime unless your good at saving it, also their's the fitness factor and amount of moves to do one after the other.Give it a go but you may want to enter a different route depending on club, for example one club may set out the sections harder for each route so you would want to enter the class you are most comfy in i.e. no point in riding expert if your going to five most things so intermediate would be best but it's all what you feel comfy on. Just enter on in the class you think, better to start off smaller though. Edited November 24, 2007 by hugh_b Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
