PERRIS, CA, APR. 10
ill Mark ham 's new Trials Land ve nue has
proved to be a winner fo r Southern California riders . The popular Saturday afternoon
co m pe tition format has allowed a great family
atmosphere to develop at the ITS Series. It's
also been a great series for established riders to
keep in tune, yet it has provided a host of newcomers a chance to give the spo rt of trials a try.
T he events hav e all bee n organized on a
postage-sump-sized course o f five sections
ridden thr ee times around Trials Land's 40 acres
of rocks and hills. Although the course is small,
the co m petition has been fierce in mo st of the
classes. All the classes except the top Expert
class have been well-re presented all season long.
Reid Davis was again the best Expe rt rider.
( D a vis ' dad and sis t e r are a lso fr e qu e nt
competitors at Southern California trials
competitions .) Reid w isely uses the se ries as a
practice tool for to ugher competitions.
The Advanced class was a cl ose fight
between Chris Cullen , who lost 10 po ints , and
Tim Holms , who lost I I.
The Intermediat e clas s has featured the
toughest ac tion all season. Twelve-year-old
Andrew O ld a r, o n his Sherco 12 5 , has
dom inated this class all seaso n, but ro und eight
saw the closest co ntest so far this year. Montesa
rider Jim Hodges posted a th ree-point to tal for
three laps , wh ich appeared good enough for his
first-ever w in. Always careful and calculating,
Oldar finished much later, also o n three po ints
but w ith o ne more clean, snatc hing the victory
awa y from poor Hodges. The fight for th ird was
just as to ugh, as former Mo ntesa factory rider
Rich Del aney, o n a Montes a , lost five poi nts
over the IS-section co urse , w hile I0 4year. old
