New Sponsor
The nationals now have a new sponsor alongside long-running sponsors Onza. Most of you will already know Michael Singleton from attending competitions, his company Phatworks will be sponsoring future British National Cup events with brilliant prizes for winners in all classes:
1st place will receive the new unique GOLD PHATPADS - these can’t be bought, no-one (not even Michael) can have them unless they win a National competition!
2nd place will receive a pair of brand new standard PHATPADS
3rd place will be awarded a set of refill PHATPADS.
In addition, each 1st, 2nd and 3rd prize pair of pads are presented in their own Gold/Silver/Bronze presentation box, along with stickers and a custom PHATWORKS rider jersey, complete with the competition details.
We now also have a new British Trials Cup, which will be awarded to the overall winner of the Elite 24"/26" class each year. The Cup will be engraved with the name of each year’s winner, providing a reminder of past winners.
The Cup will also feature an engraving on the reverse, "In Memory of Gavin Bedford", to remind us each year of a dedicated and enthusiastic trials rider and competitor who can no longer be with us.
