Expert class - no stop

Novice - stop allowed

No,No..surely the other way around

As others have said..in these days of restricted access, it is very difficult to find suitable land/sections that will cater for both.

Too confusing for the observers and what about the Intermediate or 50/50 route ?

Forget about no-stop. We should give the observers each a cattle prod to chase you through the section. If they zap you that's a five. We'll have a long line of observers wanting to line up so it kills 2 birds with one stone

Well, that's how we'd do it in Australia

it would seem its mostly the senior or ex rider calling for no stop as thats what they remember, fair enough!,as a rider i prefer stop but i'll accept the rules.simple as

occasionally i observe, to me this is where it gets sticky, if its no stop your always going to be open to scrutiny and abuse, 'i didnt stop oh yes you did, er i think i only paused actually'( with expletives)

i'm over 40, been trialling for 3 yrs ,i cant hop ive got moderate balance but i have FUN.most of all i love watchimg the A class riders doing there hopping around looking for traction , its incredible, and now people want it stopped , why? probably because they cant do it!!!

if im a paying punter at a championship or world round i dont want to see 'pro' sections for all , i want to see the worlds best on the toughest sections, and theres only ever going to be a handfull of riders at the top anyway!

ive come from an enduro background, you cant ride it .... do the easier line or route ....simple
