Parc FermeThe Scottish Six Days Trial

3rd to 11th May 2013

Unarguably the greatest motorcycle trial in the world.

Since its origin in 1909, no other trial has captured the imagination of rider and spectator in the same way.  Riders are lured to the SSDT from all over the world, and the event has the same status to trials riders as the Isle of Man TT has to road racers.

In a word, it's spectacular!
