2018 Easy Clubman / Youth Trials Update

This year RMC are going to trial a new Non Championship course.  This will depend on the venue and at the discretion of the Clerk of the Course.  It will be a hard route deviation on the main course, at our Easy Clubman / Youth Trials.  The class will be known as HNC (Hard Non Championship).  It is a progression course mostly for our B Class riders to help them progress to the Green Course, however adults are more than welcome to ride this if you wish.

Please keep an eye on the Website for further updates.  We are also hoping to run a few more trials this year, dates and venues are yet to be confirmed.

For further infomation contact Sandra Fowler (RMC Youth Secretary) Tel: 01969 624146
