bezaboy Posted June 28, 2015 Report Share Posted June 28, 2015 £25.00 entry fee £5.00 spectator entry + £2.50 entry list 60 entries, not like the old days :-( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wallo Posted June 28, 2015 Report Share Posted June 28, 2015 .... and no road trial. I agree that £25 for a closed circuit trial is a lot, but that's only a fiver more than the Euro Cups trial run by Golden Valley next weekend. The way I look at it that I pay a fiver for more to ride alongside British bikes and if that helps keep the British bikes out there, what's a fiver. But then the Bath Classic trials are £15 a pop. I do think that if you enter the trial for should get free entry to watch the scramble on the Sunday, having to pay an extra tenner is taking the biscuit a little.

jon v8 Posted June 28, 2015 Report Share Posted June 28, 2015 I was happy to pay £25 for the road trial that was cancelled,but looking around the trial yesterday there is no way I would have been happy to have paid the same for 3 laps of 10. The B route looked OK, but the A route in places was just stupid,seeing very skilled,well known and respected riders having 5 after 5 did not make for good viewing. Sadly not in the same league as the last Bonanza road trial I did 2 years ago - that really was an excellent day out. I did catch up with a couple of riders who I didn't recognise on very nice rigids, who happily told me they only ride there and the Talmag. There are others who probably only ride the Arbuthnot or the Talmag etc,one ride a year. Its those riders who we need to entice out,by personal invitation I think, to ride other events with suitable sections, not aimed at the recent Cubs / James etc - which are often better than an original 70/80's twinshock from Spain or Japan.

monty_jon Posted June 28, 2015 Report Share Posted June 28, 2015 If it had been better advertised, then they may have had more entries? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
