Rebelistic Posted March 1, 2012 Report Share Posted March 1, 2012 Hi I was hoping to enter this but it kind of slipped my mind. Have I left it too late or can I still enter (I'm not a club member yet either)? Cheers John. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew_Gibson Posted March 1, 2012 Report Share Posted March 1, 2012 I had it in my head that it was being sent to me! but Thanks again Ben! see you Sunday! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Swales Posted March 1, 2012 Report Share Posted March 1, 2012 As it's the first round of the year, we'll let you off. The entry forms are still online (for now), so get it done quickly! If you join the club first, then enter the trial, that would be best. Just put 'pending' for your membership number on the entry form, we'll sort it out properly on Sunday.

Monkman Posted March 1, 2012 Report Share Posted March 1, 2012 Cant wait for this....its out 1st so we want to hang around for the whole thing....do you announce a winner of the round and do them a little presentation or do people hand in the cards and go when they have finished?

TykeTrial Posted March 1, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2012 Cant wait for this....its out 1st so we want to hang around for the whole thing....do you announce a winner of the round and do them a little presentation or do people hand in the cards and go when they have finished? We always do the results there on the day, usually within 10-15 minutes of the last rider coming in, then we present the medals to the top 3 in each class to take home with them. (The only exception of course is if the weather's REALLY bad, we might wait till the next trial then, but I think this has only happened once before!) The results tend to go up on the website within a couple of days, and emailed out within the week with the entry form for the next round. Looking forward to Sunday now, lots of new riders coming along as well as the old. See you all then. PS: We don't confirm receipt of entries - if you've sent it and paid, you'll be on the list, don't worry about it, just turn up. Entries will be accepted on the day for an additional charge of £5 (punishment!). For this first round, even though it's past the closing date you can still enter on-line up to Friday night at the latest. HERE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevind Posted March 4, 2012 Report Share Posted March 4, 2012 (edited) Hi Guys, Thanks for a great day from the Scottish team. Simon slipped and hurt his back (of the bike), then slipped pushing it between sections and hurt his shoulder. (competing with Ben now I think) and then got a nose bleed and cold. But the first ride at novice for him he managed most sections and had some fun! Aaron did well for him at Inter and knows what he needs to work at. Thanks to all the officials and the obsevers for a great day. back home in under four hours. See you all at Bracken.

Ben Swales Posted March 4, 2012 Report Share Posted March 4, 2012 (edited) Glad everyone enjoyed it! I had a wander round and I have to agree, I think the sections were perfect for the openoing round of the season. I was pleased to see that the 50/50 idea for the Cadet route worked well too! Just a shame about the weather, although I think we all still managed to have a good day! Write-up coming soon!

trials26 Posted March 5, 2012 Report Share Posted March 5, 2012 There certainly was a lot of rain! but was still great fun also, sections were great, and thank so much to all the observers! and the organisers. glad everyone else had a good day also.

Robin M S/c Posted March 5, 2012 Report Share Posted March 5, 2012 It was a good day. Sections about spot on and really good to see so many new faces and some new young blood, just what the sport needs. Shame about the weather but the off season investement in a new coat did the trick. Big thanks to all the observers and section setters etc and of course Barbara. see you at Bracken Rocks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
