As this is a very interesting subject I will copy Adrian's post to elevate the topic to the head of the queue.

My Ilkley Trial
Enjoyed my annual trialling trip to Yorkshire although I didn't trouble the awards secretary as I had an off day behind the steering wheel.
I thought the organisers had positioned the marker posts to make some of the sections very tight, especially the first Swordpoint section where it was barely possible to squeeze between the 10 marker and a very substantial tree.
I didn't do very well on the new Longside Wood section but those that got round the first hairpin enjoyed the long blast up between the bluebells. We had to wait about an hour for our turn as everyone had to reverse back down but hopefully the organisers will be able to keep this hill for the future.
No problems with our car but we saw Simon Woodall limping with collapsed suspension and James Shallcross had multiple punctures.
Don't know what happened to Dave Haizeldens Escort or Dave Olivers Peugot, both of who retired early on. I know Stuart Bartlett pushed the radiator into the fan on his Midget at the first special test. I can sympathise as we hit the same hillock with a hell of a bang.
We didn't get to the finish until 6.30 but there was still some welcome complimentary food available. The Ilkley is a very different Classic Trial but we enjoy it for what it is. We have done the last five and all being well will return next year.
How was your Ilkley Trial?
