Actually it was Round 1 of the 2024 South Eastern Trials Championship!

Thanks Pete. Fortunately, in the intro' text and not the video, as I didn't fancy editing it all over again. I'll be inadvertently writing 2023 instead of 2024 until at least June!

Great vid, A little confused? on section 6 they had to cross their line to complete the section? or are the rules different in this format?

I thought it was supposed to be a non stop trial?, it's like riding on a carpet. 😳.

[@NPMTrialsVideo]

Non-stop'ish! The burden on observers in judging when someone technically stops can be a difficult call. Many observers allow a ''little bit of bit of slippage'' if the rider is trying to maintain and then finds momentum. I think as long as observers are consistent in their marking across the entry, most riders respect it, but the sliding standard of what is a stop can of course lead to heated debates on how and when you call it a five.

@@NPMTrialsVideo for me it's a five all day if that motor cycle stops forward motion, it worked well in the 60s 70s 80s.

Some crash of me on the rocks

Hope you don't mind being shown having an off Alex? I never like to show a rider having a bad 5 without some balance of better rides as well, and there's x 3 more of you on other sections on there. I left it running as I could see you had a softish fall, and if I don't show you getting back on the bike intact, I always get 'the ''was he badly hurt''... type questions from viewers!
