Trials Dave Posted February 16, 2006 Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 i have been playing with the idea of setting up a small competition in the north east for a while now and i was just wondering if there would be any interest?i am in the middle of hassling the council so i will let you know what they say in the near future hopefully.name a place and i will try and get my hands on it for a day! i know that us northern lads are sick of having nothing up here!there are some great places i have seen where i ride moto trials competitions and i think i could easily use one of these places.if theres enough interest then i will continue trying to set something up.what do you say?cheersDave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spunkey_monkey_boy Posted February 16, 2006 Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 obviously it would depend on where and when but i'm always up for a comp so long as either sexy mike or phil are going sao i can bunk a lift... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

street trials rider Posted February 16, 2006 Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 (edited) i'll come ! speak to street trials rider he and a few mates do a demo at the preston park bike show (yarm, near stockton) every year !sort of, other people supply the stuff, we just mess about on it when we can, although it seems to attract more people than the actual show that the stuff was supplied for in the first place.....on another note, the preston park thing (althouhg being very very shite ocurses) usually has a little fun trial with cash/voucher prizes, but its literally mud banks with the odd log thrown in, its a good day to meet up and mess about though *edit* oh and the plod guy that organises it is always in my works (halfords) i'll try have a word with him next time he's in, try get us a propper course with skips etc, if he knows there will be more intrest it might just push him to agree to it Edited February 16, 2006 by street trials rider Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trials Dave Posted February 17, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2006 good stuff lads. i'll hassle a few people and narrow the venue down to a few locations.it will probably be a fun trial but we could start a series if theres a good turn out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trials Dave Posted February 21, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2006 I'm thinking seaton sluice area. theres plenty parking space and the place is massive.i recently rang the council and they started going on about insurance blah blah blah.....how can we overcome this? i was thinking of a club/ membership where you sign up etc do if you hurt yourself its your fault etc then there shouldnt be a problem.

Then you won't need to faff with insurace etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
street trials rider Posted February 22, 2006 Report Share Posted February 22, 2006 or do a "undergroud" comp arrange a date + time, then just go ride with say £5 to enter, prize = total number of people who enter x £5 = prize £££ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
