TRIALS:
Time
trialing is known as the race of truth. Competitors race alone starting
at one minute intervals they ride against the clock over a specified
distance, the rider with the fastest time at the end of the event
is the winner.
Distances
vary from 10 to 100 miles with the specialist areas going up to
12 and 24 hours. Most club riders compete at 10 and 25 miles in
weekly leagues organised by Southend Wheelers or other local clubs
or associations to which they belong.
Southend Wheelers offers
a full programme of 3 weekly events throughout the year for all
age categories of 12 and above. Club riders under 16 years must
gain permission from their parents/guardians before entering.
