On The Pegs THE END OF A SEASON TRIALS INC. A lot has happened in the trials Incorporated world over the past year. We’ve had celebrations, defeats, bumps and bruises and broken bikes, and more rain than anyone can measure. To signify a close to the 2017 season and honor those spe- cial moments, TI hosted their annual year-end banquet, this time in Dayton, OH. Everyone who rode at least 8 events was presented with a plaque showcasing their achievements and positions in each event, as well as a photograph of themselves in action. In addition to these awards, specialized awards were given to those who showed excep- tional skills or contribution to the trials community. STORY AND PHOTOS BY STEPHANIE VETTERLEY
