metisse Posted July 5, 2015 Report Share Posted July 5, 2015 Just to update a little, the entries should be out today on the Ventoux trial classic site. Bike requirements... Engine sprocket guards must be fitted, along with rear swinging arm guards, where the chain and sprocket meet. lights as mentioned must be of motorcycle origin and not repeat not mountain bike type. The do not have to work. Due to some one trying to be toooooo clever last year , later aircooled mono engines 307/309 Fantic or Aprillias with twinshocks mounted will not be accepted . Helmets must adhere and be stamped ECE 2205 , whilst no expert all trials helmets of the last three years have this anyway.. Good luck and see you there.

wobbler Posted July 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2015 Metisse, Do I just enter on line through the web site ??? and do I enter all three of our team ?? What about payment ??? Sorry to be a pain - I can manage some of the French but not all of it Thanks The Wobbler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metisse Posted July 12, 2015 Report Share Posted July 12, 2015 I have just entered myself, so you go to pre inscription there is a yes or no box to tick to start with concerning whether you need additional insurance.. I have the bike insure and are covered so its a no for me, as for riders in the uk I would think. Pre inscription you just fill it out for yourself like any other entry form. You do however add the name of the other team members in the box provided. Level.. Yellow easier route, Blue middle, Red Hard. You download your dossier, which will appear like a pre filled in entry, print it off and send it to the address indicated. Payment for non Frenchies is cash when you arrive to sign on. Don't forget you need to take driving licence, bike registration details and insurance details when you sign on. If I have missed something or anything else needs to be addressed I will post. Don,t forget the Helmet has to correspond to the regs I posted earlier in the thread, if not no ride. Lights must be fitted but don't need to work.

metisse Posted July 13, 2015 Report Share Posted July 13, 2015 Hi Yes I cannot see a problem doing that, each one will have a different dossier number. Print all the different entries off and send in one envelope.. Et volia. Out of interest are there many Brits apart from the normal/ regular faces coming.

metisse Posted August 26, 2015 Report Share Posted August 26, 2015 The entry for this trial is now up to 450 riders, the organisers are now seriously looking to curtail any further entries, if you are undecided, or have just entered in the last week you may not get in and have your entry returned.

metisse Posted September 2, 2015 Report Share Posted September 2, 2015 Another quick thought... The weekend before this trial, there is a French classic round being held at Sardent, Nr Limoges Creuse. It will be using land also used for the well known classic four day trial, that many on here may well know or in fact ride. Its a new event this year and they would welcome any riders on their way down to Provence that may fancy a warm up. Its a two day event , although the championship is on the Sunday.

metisse Posted September 28, 2015 Report Share Posted September 28, 2015 Just worth a mention the Mont Ventoux trial barely two weeks away had 470 entries, to which it appears 170 riders were unlucky to miss out. So 300 classic riders will enjoy the provence sunshine.. I hope. Safe journey down to the Brits and good luck. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wobbler Posted September 28, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2015 Metisse - could you just confirm the rear sprocket guard details for me ??? Cheers The Wobbler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metisse Posted September 28, 2015 Report Share Posted September 28, 2015 A guard must be fitted to the swinging arm, usually shark fin in shape and positioned down so it covers where the chain meets the rear sprocket. It is a must. In fact all trial in France require this for future reference. Plus not forgetting a working kill button. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
