Bike Trial Federation UK Ltd British Trials Cup Rnd 1 http://www.biketrialfederation.uk We are delighted to announce that the British Bike Trial Cup is back for 2017!, sponsored by Tartybikes The series kicks off this year at the world famous Addingham Moorside venue in Silsden, actually called "The Nab" to Silsdeners.

This year sees the start of the new marking out system adopted from European events that makes section routes both clearer to the rider aswell as making it easier to observe due to the whole section being taped and marked for all routes, those who have attended the recent Tyke Trial Club events will I'm sure vouch for this.

Ross McArthur Posted March 16, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2017 Nice one. Added to my first post. I see there is a wee note in there saying the organiser has to put up the entry form? What's the deal with signing on on the day? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have just been copied in to an email maligning me and saying that the website would be misleading to riders. It was my intention only to help riders find the information, nothing more. The comments received were such that I will not try to help any further and the website has been taken down again. The sport is now entirely in new hands.

Ross McArthur Posted March 16, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2017 Seen there is a FB page for the new organisation, so I've "liked" that to see if I can keep up to date on what rounds are when since the web page is down. Also notice Bike trial Federation is now Ltd. Looking forward to checking out its finances online 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevind Posted April 2, 2017 Report Share Posted April 2, 2017 just home. well it was a great day, weather gods were happy, section setters did a great job, much more professional and better looking. easy to enter with new system. Great venue, Happy dayz, see you all at the next one in May. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross McArthur Posted April 3, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2017 Aye good day. 50/50 just proved too hard on my old bones. Should have remembered I'm only supposed to do 3 sections before I decided to drop down (not a full lap of 6!) So my day was counted as "non competitive". With only 3 in Expert category anyway, I think if it was up to me, I would have put me on the podium just to make up the numbers But rules are rules...Especially when British Cycling were there! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
