It was a right fancy (dress) affair at the last OSET trial of 2017 in Cornwall.
With nearly 40 riders taking part, the Cornwall Crew really went to town with santas, lego men, even a bike converted into a seasonally apt camel!
Camborne and Redruth DMC collected over £140 worth of main prizes for best dressed rider and bike, as well as a lots of consolation prizes. Up for grabs were radio controlled robots, quads, cars and even wall climbing radio controlled cars.
Once the riding was done, Father Christmas made a guest appearance at the party afterwards to present the Summer Championship trophies in front of 130 guests!
“A Christmas party like this was a first for us, we’ll definitely be doing it again next year,” Said Howard Stevens who runs the OSET events. “Everyone brought a tray of food, we had a great community atmosphere and everyone really enjoyed themselves.”
Howard added: “We have had a brilliant 2017! When we first started the OSET Cup trials we had less than 10 riders, now we get around 40 every month. Our events are fun and designed to help kids learn the techniques they need to go on and enjoy a lifetime of trials riding!
“Whether you’re brand new or you’ve got a few years under your belt, we have a course to suit everyone and would welcome anybody new to come and have some fun riding your OSET with us! You’ll have lots of fun, make some new friends and learn a new skill!”
