Captain Scarlet Posted November 15, 2008 Report Share Posted November 15, 2008 What is the point in this post?If you are sponsored by a company they don't get to choose as to where you ride and when you can ride.The idea of a sponsor is that they give you their items (usually for free or cheap), which you can wear or use for your riding, to get their name out.Benefits, well the main one being free parts.I wouldn't worry about getting sponsored, only the minority of the trials community is sponsored.

Ali C Posted November 16, 2008 Report Share Posted November 16, 2008 being sponsored has its good and bad points.Bad:You might have to run parts you don't likeyou always have to act in a professional way (even if people are slagging you or the sponsor off)You can't modify any parts your givenGood:cheap or free parts, maybe travel money depending on the sponsorGet to use/test/give input into new parts before the public doget to travel either doing comps or doing demos, I had a nice 4 day stay in madeira in a 5 star hotel all expenses paid recently (depends on the sponsor again though)makes you feel specialPersonally I love my sponsors, without them I couldn't afford to travel as much as I do and have as much fun.
