This year’s Scott Trial is fast approaching, so all you riders who fancy riding the famous course  and sections alongside current and past World, European and British champions, get your entries filled in and sent before the closing date of 8th September 2017. The new Scott secretary Ken Wallis scottsecretary@richmondmotorclub.com is busy getting all the land permissions in place while taking the entries and attending to all the other paperwork which goes with the running of this famous trial. The Clerk of the Course Paul Robinson, with his assistants has already been plotting the route which promises to have more new sections on new routes as well as keeping the traditional sections for both riders and spectators.

So remember the first 200 entries are guaranteed a ride, don’t be like those 31 riders from last year who left it too late and had their fingers crossed for 6 weeks. Entries available to download here :  Scott Trial 2017 -Regs     Scott Trial 2017 Entry Form
