Event directions - calling for contributions from ALL RIDERS

Post by keithj »

This is a call for help from anyone who rides at trials events.

I often get requests from people asking where such-an-such an event is, like this one:

Many moons ago I had an old TL 125. So I have a bit of interest in Trials. Last year a few of us thought that we might go and have a look at a few trials events in [state]. We found the Calender on the Trials Aust website. But as far as any real directions or address to the events they are basically nonexistent. It appears that you already need to be in the Loop so to speak, as to where these events are held. I did get a Ph No. for someone at one of the clubs and I left a message and there was no reply. Maybe a contact list for each of the clubs represented on the calendar, may be able to be attached at the top or bottom of the calendar spread sheet.


Folks, the future of our sport is up to US. We need to make it easy for people to find events.

I'd love it if people could start putting easy directions to events in this forum. I'd be happy to go through and collate posts into state-based entries, just like the entry for Victoria.

So what do people think? Maybe if you know of an event coming up, why not check this forum and if there's no directions, add one!

Thanks everyone!
Keith.

This year I have started putting instructions of how to get to the venues using Google Maps.

These are the four I created for our next trial depending on where you are coming from. These only take a few minutes each to create and then save as a PDF.

Great idea.

Perhaps with Keith's revamp of the website it may be in one of the pull down menus like we see the classifieds. Perhaps in the events section???

Bucca Trial directions:
Would the organisers please check the spelling of the Trials site directions please?
Is it Settles Forest road or Settlers Forest Road?
Thanks
Feet up, as always!
