Trials riding is ballet on a motorcycle when it's done right, and we have plenty of talent in this area. Many active clubs conduct modern and vintage trials events in the area.

Come out and join the fun. You'll be amazed just watching. Probably even enough to try it.

Letter from the Chair. 6/26/08

Its now June and our season is halfway done. This year has brought new faces and new challenges to D7 Trials. Our average event turnout has been around 9. Several new riders have come back into trials this year to revisit their blast from the past, as well as several D7 veterans. In addition to our normal events, D7 trials riders have participated in other trials related events. In March, 5 riders went down to the Trials Training Center (TTC) for the trials training days, an annual weekend trials school. In April, I was invited to do a trials demo at Bob's BMW GS Day. The crowd was very interested in the sport and learned a lot about this sport that is unfamiliar to most. The end of April was an exciting time for some of us as the best trials riders in the world descended on TTC for the US Wagner Cup. Several members made the trek down to witness the not-so-often chance to see these riders in the USA. Upcoming on the 4th of July, our 2 female riders are going back to TTC to compete in the 3 day Women's Open/Youth Nationals, an annual competition open to all female and youth riders in the country. Jillian will be riding the Novice line and Laura will be riding the Advanced line. Good luck to them, may they represent the district well. Good luck to all riders as the season comes to a close. If you haven't been fortunate enough to come out to a trials this year, look to attend one of our 3 remaining events.

Thanks to RYP for supporting D7 Trials!
