Hi Martin,

Not going to enter this one as I'll be moving house around then. Will be up for ones later in the year tho! We now have a car to use!

Lands End

Post by TrialsMarina » Mon Jan 21, 2008 8:13 am

Lands End entries close 31st of Jan.

If your not a club member its quite expensive. £50 entry + £15 Insurance+ club membership £25 and I guess we will burn £70 of petrol thats without incidentals. And My 1.8 marina is £99 tax for 6 months.

Long distance Trials

No its not a race, for class O we start at Bridgewater at about midnight on good friday and finish 4 o clock at Scorrier down in cornwall.

You are given a route book with left right marked and there is about 15 or so off road sections some of which you do in the dark.

This is a video clip of the Exeter which is similar going.
