old trials fanatic Posted May 25, 2010 Report Share Posted May 25, 2010 Round 4 of the Club Championship was held at Carsons Farm, Grange Barn near Matlock last Sunday 23/05/2010 and the beautiful sunny weather provided a dry dusty challenge to the 44 riders who competed riding 5 laps of 10 tight twisty sections in the woods. There were some very tight turns and some challenging tests set by the course plotter Darren Walker whose efforts were most appreciated. This time of year is a busy time for farmers and the landowner who most kindly allowed us to hold our event on his land was up most of the night with a cow having a problem calving having to call the vet out in the wee small hours whilst most of us were tucked up in bed. So well done Derek Carson for still making the effort to ride. Also well worth a mention was the superb ride by young Mark Elvidge to win the Clubman Twinshock class on his Honda 125. Mark has only just taken up trials following in the illustrious footsteps of his father Peter and this was only his fourth event his ride showing some of the stalwarts how it is done. Mark has a great future going by his performances this year. Rides of the day, apart from Marks , were the fantastic performance from Chris Garlick on his Fantic to win the Expert Twinshock class losing just 1 mark and Graham Lyons on his BSA Bantam also losing just the 1 mark to win the Clubman British Bike route. Thanks as usual to all the observers who help make it such an enjoyable event without them there wouldn't be any trials but we always need more so if you fancy taking part in this fascinating sport and receiving a complimentary bottle of wine in the process then please come along to our next event. Speaking of which our next event is round 5 of the Club Championship at Dudwood Farm on 20th June. Usual start time of 11.00. See you there.
