that NBR dude Posted February 7, 2005 Report Share Posted February 7, 2005 (edited) Its still in the pipeline at the moment, but I have a meeting with the Head of Poole Council, to discuss my thoughts and ideas. Anyway, This is just to test the water, and see who would be willing to come and enter. It will be in Poole somewhere, so it will be literally minutes away from the Station. Competition wise, there will be a choice of 2 routes, easy and hard, and all who enter MUST hold a current ACU, or have Parental consent (unless you're over 18), and there will be an insane fee of £3. We have decided to scrap the time limit on each section, and instead follow motorcycle trials more, and have an overall time in which to finish all sections. For every 30 seconds you go over that set time, 1 dab will be added. Thats the general jist of it, so now its down to you guys. If you are interested in attending (assuming it goes ahead) please leave your details in this thread, so I can pass them on to the council, to show what kind of interest this will generate. Also feel free to leave any comments, suggestions, even section plans. Im doing this for you guys, so tell me what you want!! Thats pretty much all for now, but I will update once I have spoken to the council. Andy Edited February 7, 2005 by NBRtrials.tk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark W Posted February 7, 2005 Report Share Posted February 7, 2005 What about doing it YMSA-style so you have to start at 11am and finish at 3-4pm (whichever), and have 2 minutes per section? 'cos otherwise, if there's horrific queueing you're all up shit creek? Sounds like a good idea otherwise, good luck with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt_Tupman Posted February 8, 2005 Report Share Posted February 8, 2005 (edited) Is this trial natural or street? I'll be there :P only a short drive for me Running it by motorbike rules is a great idea, I guess it will be like the British Champs but without the timed sections (Y) (Y) Edit- were abouts in Poole would it be held?

that NBR dude Posted February 8, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2005 Thanks for the interest so far guys :P It will be sometime during the summer, but dont know any dates yet. Im trying to get it in Baiter Park, just past the main coast line of the quay side, near Baiter Skate park. It will be a bit of a mix of everything, with a section on the rocks by the coast, and other sections made from objects donated from my good friends at demolition sites and breakers yards. We are looking at stuff along the lines of: Skips Spools Cars Pallettes Tyres Oil Drums Sleepers and anything else I can lay my hands on. I will speak to people about the time limit issue, and see what people think about it (Y) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
011001000110010101110010 Posted February 8, 2005 Report Share Posted February 8, 2005 Sort of man made, but with natural materials :P oh and some oil drums... :P Some encouraging signs from the council :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephen Morris Posted February 8, 2005 Report Share Posted February 8, 2005 Have a skatepark section, that would be so revolutionary, there are loads of lines in the skatepark anyway! As for the competition, Baiter park is a big space of grass, 30 seconds from the harbour. There are LOADS of rocks, and although they're quite small and technical, an abundance of sections could be made. The idea of cars and stuff sounds great. I will defitnitely not miss this, I'm already wet with excitement... sorry. If you need help setting up the day before, I'd be up for that as well. Stephen.

Ali C Posted February 8, 2005 Report Share Posted February 8, 2005 it sounds great! Shame its so far, I very much doubt I will be able to get there :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BONGO Posted February 8, 2005 Report Share Posted February 8, 2005 probably of no use, but just thought i'd mention that poole has THE BEST outdoor mini ramp i have ever ridden. In between 2 road bridges, on the side of the road, a metal mini of two levels with coping that slopes down to the lower level. It is so fit lol john Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have 2 quater pipes connected together and all sorts. A skate park section does sound cool, but I dont thik the council would like me closing the park down for a day :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'cos otherwise, if there's horrific queueing you're all up shit creek? Sounds like a good idea otherwise, good luck with it. ← To solve this problem of queueing, people have suggested that you can do the sections in any order. This way, it should reduce the chance of there being lots of riders at one section, and none at another. It will spread them out a bit more. Also, Im not fussed about wheel size, so 24"ers feel free to enter as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
