This event is back for 2016!

We have a new venue at Deepcut, just down the road from Bagshot.

For all those that have ridden one of the long distance trials recently you will love this event which has a similar format but it is all off road and has a speed element too. It's also a good opportunity to get the most from your ACU membership.


Here is some detail and a post from "Chopper" after he rode the last event:

This is a unique event which I am helping to run this year as the organisers are getting on a bit. In previous years me, Derek, Mudevee, GDAS, Colin, Gavin and others have all taken part and thoroughly enjoyed it, don't take my word for it ask them.


The day is divided into 3 stages - each slightly more difficult than the last. You ride a course and encounter some trials sections on route. Last year the first stage was a lap in an hour or so.
Next stage, more laps, less time per lap, but the sections are opened up
Last stage, more enduro than trials. Again a couple of laps, less time. This time you just need to go through each section start gate.

All this is might sound complicated but in reality it isn't, I would say any Surrey TRF member would get round and have a fun day out. It's very sociable, no pressure and really well put together event.

ACU trials licence required (£10 for year), no tyre restrictions.



Here is Derek's (Chopper) report from last years event:

"I took part in this event yesterday and have to say it was one of my best biking days out. As a novice I had to complete six laps which were 5.5 miles each. The first stage was two laps with 10 reasonably tight trials sections, all to be completed within 2 hours. The second stage was two laps again but with the trials sections opened up (much easier) and completion within 1.5 hours. Finally the third stage was two laps (novice) to be completed in 1 hour but just ride through the entry gate of each section.
The riding was mainly technical single track through woods but with lots of long steep climbs and descents. Challenging yes, but nothing impossibly hard, otherwise I would not of completed!
There is no need to change to trials tyres, it's on our doorstep, its fantastic riding and quite honestly a great chance to ride some different terrain on a really well thought out lap/route.
Anyway I thoroughly recommend it and just hope I get a chance to do it again."

Chopper.


If you have a look at the old thread in this section there is a lot more info, you will also see that last years event was unfortunately cancelled over land issues.
New venue this yea, similar to Bagshot, lot's of tight single track, a few hills and a lot of tree's!
So I am looking for riders to sign up and for some help on the day, four travelling marshal's would be great and as many observers as possible, preferably with some experience, but tbh it's not difficult.

Should be on the agenda at clubnight.

Cheers

Thanks for the notification of this event last night. Ordinarily I wouldn't go near the Competitive Riding section on the Forum.

Please put my name down as a "competitor" for this event.....my first as an inbetweener. ACU license applied for.
