Hampshire BTC

From TrialsWiki

A very friendly club run by Terry Graves, father of world class rider Michael Graves. Running around 7-8 rounds per year, primarily in Hampshire with one held in East Dorset.

Turnout is usually between 50 and 60 riders and due to lack of observers trials are usually run as three laps of six sections rather than the usual two laps of ten.

Trials run 3 routes: Beginner (white route), intermediate (blue route) and expert (red route) and seperate 20" and 26" categories.

Events range from rock quarries to wooded sections, man made obstacles and everything in between.

No club membership fees are paid to join the club but riders must have a current ACU license (£10 from ACU). Events cost £8 per trial to enter, paid when signing on.

If you're interested in attending any trials, contact Terry Graves on 02380 643503.

Please note you need to pre-enter before the comp and are not usually allowed to simply turn up on the day. However Terry may be able to squeeze you in if you get in touch after the deadlines.
