the organiser Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 This is just a small tread to give some info and get some feedback for the YMSA trials in 2009,We are hoping to run 2 or 3 events max in this year no club championship just 1 off events in very good venues.Possable events at Hesham in Lancs, this was a venue used last year for a round of the BIU Nationals and was well supported, we hope to have a man made section as last year, good parking and food van there.Second event will be at Bracken Rocks Matlock home of the YMSA and a great venue, again lots of easy parking etc, this event we hope to run over a weekend so for riders and familys to travel with the possable chance of camping at the venue, this may be over a Bank holiday we need to look at the dates.New things for this Year......We think only 2 routes Pro and Expert so to make very good sections, but we need your feed back here if there is good feed back we will take this onboard and may also run a novice route,let us know, post dont just sit and say nothing and then say later we will be taking a look at the feed back posts over the next 2 weeks and then be posting in the News section all the info for the events of 2009 hopefully with your ideas, in 2004 we ran Tec04 this was a big hit with all rides at the event so we are hoping to move more along these lines in 09.Many thanks YMSA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grantham Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 sounds like a good idea dave. 2 classes only would make it easier to set out and better sections, you should deffinitely run a novice or inter route as well i think so as not to put people off.I'm hoping I can attend these events this year didn't get the chance to last year YMSA is a great club.

Bessell Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 get on it dave, however i do think u should have a novice class as well.. i will defo go like every year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin M S/c Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 We will make them, dates permitting, but only if theres a novice route Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0zzy Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 just putting my view acrros but i feel that you will be lousing alot of suport not having a novice course, as for a lot of people at comps a fair few of them would be there first trial. which would intimidate and stop a few people from going. thats just my opnion though. if you have a novice course i will be going to as many as i can mate.

kyle-livesey Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 will do my best to get too these. was hoping they would run this year as im gonna take the comp seen very seriously this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robonatomz Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 dont take it too seriously mate, lolsupose i will go if i have to dave!, lolseriously though i cant wait!, allways good comps put on by these guys, think the no novice thing is just an idea because for the last few years they have set out for novice's but non have come, and anyway like dave said, this thred is intended for yoour feedback, so if you all want novice catagory, then im sure the guys and gays at ymsa will take that on bord, seriously if you get chance to attend these evnts you will not regret it, they really are good fun, and all you have to do to win is not put your feet down! how hard can it be!!!, lolrob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt rushton Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 Sounds like a good idea, but please don't run them on the same days as Tyke trials or other club trials, I would have proberly attened some last year but they were on the same days as Tykes'. So because Tykes are closer for me I went there, insted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the organiser Posted February 7, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2009 So far many good ideas and input and all taken on board, looks like Novice route is needed as long as its well supported, as somone said it takes a lot more time to lay out many routes and can sometime make it hard to use some very good areas for the trials as theres no were to lay a lower route but we will try.As for dates it now getting harded to not clash with other clubs so many thing to try and miss, and its not just the dates of trials sometimes you get a good date missing other trials then the venue is booked for other sports etc,But we we try very hard to fit in so everyone can take the chance to ride with us YMSA is a long time in trials so we want to try and carry on if possable with your support.keep posting as we are looking what you are saying dont just read and then go away POST.Thanks YMSA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Not saying you were, but they always seemed to be on the same dates). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fwad Posted February 9, 2009 Report Share Posted February 9, 2009 Dave, I think that you'll need a novice route as long as people will guarantee they'll turn up. Also tech 09 would be a good idea, but would be expensive, as we said before. Hopefully you''ll run a few events at least. YMSA are always great comps.
