ILLEGAL
PRACTISING
All land belongs
to someone and riding on it requires the owners permission - simple
Practising at ANY C&NW Trials venue, with the exception of Hawks
Nest & Alvanley Trials Ground (by prior arrangement) is not allowed
If you're caught by the land owner, or if they find there have been
riders practising we will lose the use of the venue completely.
NO LAND = NO TRIALS!

Staffs Moorlands MCC |
Scott Ellis
Trial
Venue is Blackshaw Farm, Blackshaw
Moor, Nr. Leek, ST13 8TR. 1.5 miles out of Leek on the A53 Buxton road
– signposts will be out on the day.
Entries accepted right up to the
start from all Adult class and Youth A & B class riders.
There’ll be 3 laps of 15 sections
over the varied terrain offered by this excellent venue.
“There will be only 2 routes, as
usual for this Trial. The Expert Route which is self-explanatory, and
the Clubman Route which will be a harder standard than our normal
Clubman Route as there is NO 50/50 Route. The Clubman Route will
roughly equate to our usual 50/50 Route severity. This is, therefore,
not a Trial for the beginner. You have been warned!!”
