Hi mate,

I organised a trials competition a little while back so I sort of know what is involved, although it was nothing like as big as Teescycle or BUC.

Do you have a venue? Most places that will let you run something like this will require you to have Public Liability Insurance. This is fairly expensive, if you can find a company that will cover you.
It also is quite difficult to find enough decent stuff for running a trials comp. I thought it would be easy, but sourcing and transporting enough stuff to your venue is a nightmare! I can't imagine what getting hold of a street course would be like!

Anyway, not trying to put you off, just some points you might not have thought of. It is great fun and very rewarding though.

Edd
