Hello

[nik]

Hi my names Nik Connolly im 19 and from Kidderminster,west midlands.

Iv got a 2003 gas gas txt280 which iv had for about a year now but havent done any trials because i cant find out any information on where they are held or how to get into a club so this is why iv joined up on here. If anyone could help get into a club in my local area or know of anywhere that i can go and practice i would realy appreciate it.

Hi Nik, I have a couple of links below which should help with clubs etc. You are in the Midland Centre and not far down the M5 is the Western centre who run quite alot of Trials. The ACU link shows all the clubs in every centre some of which have web sites and emails for contact. The Midland Centre link has dates etc shown for up and coming Trials. I dont know of any practice areas near you but there is Top Farm not far from Worcester contact scorpa3 on here (Pete) who runs the Club. The are also a couple of good quarries just East of Cheltenham well worth going to and usually a few other riders there every weekend.

On the ACU site you can download the Trials registration form, fill it in and phone/email your local club. You need to join a club for your ACU registration card so the club will send you a club membership form out. Once both have been completed send the two forms back to the club who will sign the ACU one for you and post off to them. The card should take 10-15 days to arrive, or you could see when the next local trial is on and just turn up with the completed ACU form and join there and then.

Pretty much all Trials riders are a very friendly bunch will to give help and advise even the very top lads dont be frightened to ask, good luck
