Whilst we are unable to participate in this great sport, take advantage of getting your hands on one of these trials books. One is more recommended than the other (??) coming from the South East! A couple of current Tenterden members get a mention in the Graham Jarvis book.
Stay safe and enjoy reading.
Last week the ACU LTD Board of Directors met virtually for over six hours to discuss the way forward for British motorcycle sport.
These are unprecedented times and the ACU stands fully behind the NHS and essential workers in the national fightback against COVID-19.
With the current suspension of motorcycle events until 31st May, backed by MCRCB and MSUK the ACU continue to work hard to ensure once the Government’s social distancing advice is lifted members can get back on their motorcycles. We would ask all members to be patient during this period, and respect that our ACU staff are trying to continue providing a high-level of service to Clubs, Centres and Promoters in an increasingly challenging environment.
We would ask members to continue being responsible and not ride their motorcycles and risk an unnecessary burden on the NHS.
Thank you
ACU Directors

The club are also looking for a number of observers so any volunteers please report the the secretary on the day or call Marc Taylor beforehand so that he can allocate you a section.
The success of any trial is dependent on having all sections observed, 13 sections are being set out so a few more than normal are needed.
It is with great sadness that we have announce that Mrs Val Orpin, wife of John Orpin, has passed away. The Orpin family allow us to use their land for the “Weald of Kent” trial at the Harbourne Venue.
The funeral service will take place on Monday 23rd December at the Charing Crematoreum at 1pm.
Our thoughts extend to the family during this time.
Please find below the link to the membership form for 2020.

Well done to all the finishers in the tricky and slippery conditions.
Following the last event of the championship on Saturday the final championship results have been calculated and can be found attached.
Well done to all the class award winners and to everyone that took part. The presentation of theses awards will be at our Presentation night which will be held early in the new year. All are welcome to come along and details of the event will be made available shortly.
As this is now the end of this series on behalf of the club I would like to say how much everyone has appreciated the work and effort that Mike Nutbrown and Tim Taylor has put in the run this series for the last few years when youth only events were scarce, due to the increasing popularity of the sport and the amount of events the youth only clubs are now running the forum that we provided is no longer necessary. Needless to say that all our events are open to youth riders so please feel free to come along and ride in the future.
Well done guys and enjoy your well earned rest.
Over the weekend of 28th and 28th September we will be running the last 2 events of the year at the Harbourne land site opposite the London Beach Golf Club on the A28 at St Michaels.
Firstly on Saturday 28th at 1.00pm there will be a youth only trial, all welcome, various routes available that will cater for all abilities.
This will also qualify as the last round of the Tenterden and Barham youth series.
Then on Sunday we will be running the “Murray Brush” memorial trial, there will be 4 routes including a yellow sportsman route which will also be suitable for beginners. This event is also open to youth riders.
Entries will be taken on the day at this popular event but pre entries would help the congestion on the day. If you can bring along a completed entry form and the correct money. £15 entry and £10 for youth riders.
Observers also welcome.
Thank you
