Can I use a Motocross bike at TBEC events?

NO! We do not allow Motocross or Motocross derived bikes at any events.
The only bikes we allow are Enduro, Trail and trials.

Can I ride my Enduro Bike in a Trail Bike class?

NO! Only Trail Bikes and Trials Bikes are allowed in the Trail Bike classes, as the added performance of an enduro bike would give an advantage to the rider.

Can I ride my Trail Bike in an Enduro class?

Yes! Because the Trail Bikes are normally of a lower power and it would be the riders decision.

How do I get into the Club Championship?

You will need to help setup or clear up at each event you ride at to get yours results and points towards the Championship.

You will also have to Marshal at one Championship round of the season as the final qualifier.

How does the positioning work in the results tables?

The positioning works like this: starting with final points (points minus penalty points) then laps done then overall time taken. Fastest lap is not used for any results.

The top 3 positions overall get bonus points of 5,3 and 1 respectively.

Checkout positions 24, Kevin Bartle – did 13 laps but due to penalty points he received the same points as riders who did 12 laps – as he has done 13 laps he gets the advantage. And look at position 41, same reason.
