WHAT IS MOTORCYCLE TRIALS?
BILL THOMPSON
Inducted 2016
Motorcycle trials is a slow-speed competition where the object is to ride through skill-appropriate "sections" without putting your feet down or making any other errors. Sections are attempted by one rider at a time over terrain that includes multiple obstacles and/or tight turns that require skill to negotiate, rather than speed.
Points are given for faults and failures committed within the sections.
The rider in each class with the lowest total score is the winner.
