Crowthorne Cycle Trials is for adult and youth of all abilities. Cycle Trials is one of the few sports that ladies compete at the same level, there is no pressure to ride at any level, just at the level you are happy with.
There will usually be 6 sections, all will be observed, and all the observers will be willing to give their advice. Helmets must be worn at all times, and gloves and long trousers are recommended. Parents or guardians must stay at the venue with their young riders, and sign the relevant forms when booking in.
Please do not give the observers any hassle, they are only here to observe, and it is hard enough to get them any way. At the end of the day we are all here to have a pleasant day of sport, and to go home fulfilled. It is yourself, parents, or guardians responsibility for your own safety, and to keep your bike in tip top condition.
What is Biketrial?
BikeTrial is the art and skill of riding your bike over and between obstacles, showing balance and fitness. Ideally not touching the 'section' with anything except the bike's tyres!
Some people ride special 20" wheeled bikes, or even smaller for the younger children. Other people ride 26" mountain bikes, others ride the newish 24" bikes. It really doesn't matter which. The aim is to ride your bike, learn new skills, make new friends and to enjoy yourself!
Come along to a competition, classes at clubs start with Beginners, Novice, Intermediate, Expert and Elite ~ self-graded on ability.
Give competitions a go, you don't need to be the best, classes are available for all riding abilities, just come along, meet new people in a great atmosphere, and have a good time!
