VW Beetle - North Devon Motor Club, Exmoor Trial 2017 - Beggars Roost

            Welcome to the 2017 Exmoor Trial, which is a round of the 2017 ACTC Car and Motorcycle Classic Trial Championships, ASWMC ‘REIS’ Classic Reliability Trial Championship. This year there are a few new lanes in this event which we hope will provide you with some new challenges.
.
The route is approximately 75 miles on OS Map 180 in the very north of Devon with a real mixture of sections which are non-car/motorcycle breaking including the infamous Beggars Roost, High Bray and others enjoyed by competitors in previous years. The route will include stops for fuel near the start, approximately half way and near the end of the route.

Hill climbing is something we would mostly do on tarmac today, but back in the day, you needed long wheel travel at those speeds if you wanted to get to the top in one piece. The London to Lands End Trial is something the British still organize every year, and as its name suggest, the land ends pretty soon after you crossed the start line. One of the difficult parts of the course is the Beggars Roost hill, where that Riley Redwing was fighting for victory in January, 1925 at the Easter Races. During the thirties, over 500 competitors entered this muddy challenge.
