I'll call it a blue event then................ however that is what non MA events have be called in the past Bl@#k Enduro, Bl@#k MX etc:

Yours does sound like a good idea though John, get rid of the red tape, kids trophys only etc: then just self administer yourself sounds easy!!

Hi there Yamfan! Well i guess the fear of the unknown is allways the stumbling block, as it was with us at first ,,,,,,,We are now up to our 7th event off a possible 10 We are getting 45+ at every event now,,,,,Its all so worth it to get a full weekend out trialsing for $15 for members and 25 for guests,,,,we are still fine tuning the set up but its working !!!People are crawling out to our events that havnt been there for many years!!and for $25 fullstop they seem to be very interested in what we are doing with it,,,,Its just a combination of the right type of keen trials riders and friends with the same interest,riding observed trials! john

Hi
Once upon a time, far far away there was a trials club in Darwin. That has long since past.
I am presently trying to acquire a bike for myself and my boys to start riding trials again. There are plenty of places to ride up here only there is very limited interest. If you or others would like to do some trials ridding get in touch through the forum and we might be able to work something out.

hi guys,
over the past few years proart has run schools up your way, as for the heat, dam i remember a course at Katherine and it was 48 degrees in the shade and had to ride just to cool down, lol anyhow i was talking to Tim at Honda in darwin, he said that he knew of a few guys interested in Trials, i think he himself was too. Also have you guys ridden around the four drive area just off to the right of the gates at hidden valley, we got permission off lands to do schools on those climbs. as for a club i am sure "jordy" (mant) will do his best to help you build a club and ways like a demo at the drags to increase public awareness, maybe with the great weather you guys could run a indoor type of event and drag the cold southerns up in our winters??? cheers
