Two things I'm always reminded of watching amateur trials:
1. A rider can go from looking like a ballet dancer on wheels to an epileptic wine maker crushing grapes in the blink of an eye.
2. The pros are absolute effing magicians with otherworldly talent.
3. Grassroots sport is the absolute best.
Okay, three things. Have fun playing in the mud!

Most of the sites are private property so the addresses aren't well publicized on purpose to avoid public showing up at other times. WB is normally pretty good at posting the address of the next event so we can watch.
Maybe a stupid question but if a CVMG member shows up w/o a bike is there a chance someone might offer up a chance to try one of the beginner loops? I've been interested in trials for a bit now but not sure how you starting dipping your toe in w/o just buying a bike.
Good question. All trials require membership to the cvmg and pre registering. It might be different for the school On june 7 Contact
It looks like there is an exemption in the rules to allow participation in one even to try it out even without a cvmg membership (with the blessing of the president). It seems like the paperwork side is manageable, the trick is getting someone to lend you a $10K+ bike that you have a very good likelihood of dropping.
gonna pass on that ride...
Like a KLR, they are designed for naps. The odds of proper damage are low but not zero.
