carl ekblom Posted July 22, 2022 Report Share Posted July 22, 2022 Someone know when observed trials started. I guess shortly after WW2. I believe trials in a form of reliability test started early in the 19 hundreds, but observed trials in a form we would recognize as trials today🤔when did this happen🧐 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naichuff Posted July 23, 2022 Report Share Posted July 23, 2022 To replay to your query Trials are up dated all the time They started as reliability test Inthe SSDT observed hills started cica 1920 The first loss of marks for footing was round about 1930 When I started trials marks were 0135 later to 01235 on single route section Things have moved on multi routes stopping allowed as have the bikes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rabie Posted July 23, 2022 Report Share Posted July 23, 2022 as above sometime in hte late 20's very early 30's. My club was founded in 1928 and we've got some very old trials results, see; https://sidcupmotorcycleclub.co.uk/trials/sidcup-sixty/ https://sidcupmotorcycleclub.co.uk/trials/dick-dickenson-trial/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carl ekblom Posted July 24, 2022 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2022 Yes, I remember 0135. The 01235 came mid 70´s. One of the first factory built trials bikes was, as far as I know, Royal Enfield Bullet and it came in 1949. Well, there was one in 30`s but it was not a trials bike Think the reliability trials was partly observed early 1900´s but don´t know for sure when it went to 100% observed. Think the name ISDT (international six days trial) has to do with reliability trials. From 1981 called ISDE (international six days enduro) Thanks everyone for giving me some background👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
