Might consider it ThanksSam.....Hi there it is free to loan a bike but you have to pay to enter, but we will give a free day membership on the first time you ride, after that you will need to become a member you can ask to loan a bike for a number of times as long as there is not someone new wanting to try if you understand.Ash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil H Posted February 26, 2007 Report Share Posted February 26, 2007 Been thinking about going to a comp for a while with a couple of mates from my home town.I've been riding a year or 2, not a great rider but ok, got gaps to front and all that business. But anyway if you have never ridden a comp before can you just turn up and ride higher than novice runs or just go on the novice run?What about paper work wise? Do you have to be a member?Cheers, hope you can help.Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rudirudirudirudirudi Posted February 27, 2007 Report Share Posted February 27, 2007 hi. i was just wondering that if me and a friend wanted to come and watch is there any point in taking our bikes. like is there gaps between the compitition where you can muck around on the stuff? and can you loan the bikes if your not doing the compition because im trying to get my friend into trials and its prooving difficult lol. thankshi. i was just wondering that if me and a friend wanted to come and watch is there any point in taking our bikes. like is there gaps between the compitition where you can muck around on the stuff? and can you loan the bikes if your not doing the compition because im trying to get my friend into trials and its prooving difficult lol. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AshleyB Posted February 28, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2007 Loan Bikes are for the comp only sorry to say insurance and all that you understandAs for watching with your bikes that will be ok i think as lots of folk watch and some ride between sections, but you can not ride in the sections on the day, its a naterual venue so lots to ride on anyway.Remember you can ride and your mate ride also in the comp on a loan bike this is the best way to have all the fun..Ash B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Pitbull Posted February 28, 2007 Report Share Posted February 28, 2007 Hi Ashley, really glad you posted this, as im wanting to start YMSA this year. I have the form ready but it asks for a YMSA license number? do i just bring the form with me on the day followed by Membership fee? and when i get my license i just write it down and will this entitle me to enter comps throughout the year etc, or is there a fee everytime i want to enter the comp even with membership.Also are riding specific riding shoes required, or can we just where our normal shoes lol.
