I've seen pics of the Trials Park somewhere in the West and I want to play! If only I had some land and a few rocks.
Good to see the resurgance of Trials in the West. Call me when you have flights to the trial and carriage for my TY! Nah, seriously it is good to hear that somewhere is getting the numbers.
Will the MA still have the 'budget' licence next year? If so, I'm joining in the fun.

Hi All
From the home of the Supertrial ( Bendigo Victoria )
This year we have had at most trials in Victoria 70-80 riders.
We held the Vic titles last weekend at sunny Sedgwick and we had 93
entries for our 2 day trial things seem to be on the up here in Victoria anyway it may be due to the lower licence cost.
The numbers seem to be up for most grades the best thing is that we are getting 8 to 10 juniors at most events.
We also had timing for the first time at the Vics only for Experts and A Grade
The observers seemed to cope with there added tasks.

Thanks Phil

how much do they charge for a licence in Vic? I thought the MA was OZ wide, with the same prices.

Hi All
The licence cost in Victoria are.

Senior-Junior Restricted National: $175 (Trials only)

Senior-Junior National: $250

The lower licence cost has helped us out with a saving of $225 per year
on our three licences.
I hope they keep it going it may bring a few more people into the sport
but what it has done here is bring people that have been into trials in the past back into the sport.

Phil.
