| Beta USA is excited to announce a revolutionary new trial competition, the Divisional Trial, taking place on Sunday, October 18th, 2026, at the historic Donner Ski Ranch in Norden, California.
Breaking away from traditional formats, this premier event introduces an all-new scoring system for the sport of trial. The competition eliminates standard classes, making it completely open to all skill levels from Novice to Pro. Riders will navigate 1980s-style sections designed for optimal flow as they compete for a massive $6,000 purse, which will be paid out to all top three divisional finishers.
Adding to the prestige of the weekend, three-time AMA National Trials Champion & AMA Hall of Famer, Scott Head will serve as the event’s Grand Marshall.
Event & Registration Details: Entries are strictly limited to the first 100 riders.
The $150 entry fee provides a packed weekend experience that includes:
