Trials
Trial is the bike sport with the most creative obstacles, because it is performed wherever possible, in the city as well as in nature.
The rider has to have his bike – which does not have a saddle – under complete control in order to manage all kinds of obstacles. Balance, concentration, power, courage and body control are important to pass the section with as little contact between body and ground as possible.
There are 20-inch and 26-inch trial competitions, according to the wheel size.
Varied sections in the town centre of Saalfelden demand great skills from the athletes during the trial nights.
All sections are easily accessible within several minutes walking distance. Therefore the audience is presented an extraordinary spectacle, before the world champions are awarded in the party tent.
