There is also a reflection on how trials are funded, challenges of land access and the fun of marking out trials. Enjoy Phil H 👍 #trials #trialsbiking #trialsriding

    Mikes lost the plot. Bou is the best thing to ever happen to trials. If you want to beat him, practice harder, get better. If you slackened the sections off and left it to time he'd still win because he generally completes them quicker than the rest too! He'll retire one day and eventually someone else will dominate for a spell. At which time we can moan that that guy is too good 🙄

      the sport is suffering the same issues world wide. Less and less riders competing a high level. Huge costs for travel and competing = less riders = less bike sales = less sponsorship or manufacturers putting money back into the sport. I dont know how much $$ the ACU put back into trials, but for many years now the Spanish federation has funded their riders and also had academies for Youth. Toni is NOT the problem, but there is a big problem and our beautiful sport is slipping away. Year after year its sad to see good young riders walk away because they cant fund it on their own anymore, and can turn to other sports, mostly Hard Enduro

    Phil's great video from Brookhouse Brickworks shows the venue, first used in the 1950s, at its best (or worst) depending upon one's view. It looks to have been a hard trial but to put it into context, the Expert route winner lost 25 and the last Expert rider was on 88, the best Green course rider finished on 7 with the last on 56, the best Clubman lost only 5 with the last on 86, so not horrendous scores after four laps of ten sections and a very tiring ride. No big steps, nothing nasty or dangerous, just a slippy trial.

    I really enjoy the video. I am 73 yrs. old and live in the U.S. I bought a 1975 Suzuki RL250 and if I remember, trials were just starting to be "noticed" in the states. I still own the RL and ride trails with it, not trials. They had a National Trials event several miles from my home in 1976. This gave my cousin who owned a 1975 Honda TL250 and I an opportunity to ride a real trials course. Gave us a real appreciation of the skill needed.
