About The Sport...

Motorcycle trials, also termed observed trials, is a non-speed event on specialized motorcycles. 

Motorcycle trials is often utilized by competitors in other motorcycle sports (such as motocross or road racers) as a way to cross-train,

as trials requires fine throttle, balance, and machine control.

The possible scores in each section consist of 0, 1, 2, 3, or 5. If a competitor makes their way through the section without touching the ground with a foot, they earn a score of "0". 1-3 with a point for each time they touch the ground.  

A 5 is given for stalling the motor, dismounting, going out of bounds, going backward or failing to complete the section.

The winner is the competitor with the fewest points at the end of the event. Some events are also timed with penalty points assessed to late riders.
