Bangor, Northern Ireland has been chosen to host the first round of the 2003 FIM World Trial Championships. The wooded glens and rocky coastline of North Down will present no ordinary challenge to this year's competitors with Dougie Lampkin battling to retain his coveted title.
Skill, precision and agility all make this sport breathtaking for spectators. The fifteen stages are within walking distance along the seafront of this picturesque North Down town. With an abundance of quality accommodation, shops, restaurants and exciting Motorcycle Trials, Bangor makes for a great sporting weekend.
North Down Borough Council is proud to be working with the Lightweight Motorcycle Club and all of our associated partners in hosting this event.
