VMC National Trial – Qualifier

Trial des Nations is the most important Motorcycle trials competition of national teams organized by the International Motorcycling Federation (FIM). The Canadian CMA/AMA in conjunction with the VMC motorcycle club is hosting a two-day qualifier.

Motorcycle trials, also known as observed trials, often called simply trial or trials, is a non-speed event on specialized motorcycles. The sport is most popular in the United Kingdom and Spain, though there are participants around the globe.

Modern trials motorcycles are distinctive in that they have evolved to become extremely lightweight, lack seating (they are designed to be ridden standing up) and have suspension travel that is short, relative to a motocross or enduro motorcycle.

Motorcycle trials are often utilized by competitors in other motorcycle sports (such as enduro, motocross, or road racers) as a way to cross-train, as trials require fine throttle, balance, and machine control.
