Guidelines for European Cup 2005


The main aim of the European Cup is to give an opportunity to take part in an international event for many European riders and to be part of a European Biketrial team throughout the whole year. The European Cup might be a good way to gain experience in organising another international event (EBC, WBC).

1. The European Cup is a series of 3 separate competitions in different parts of Europe.

2. Europe is divided into 4 zones of Biketrial countries:
- southern (Greece, Croatia, Italy, Spain…)
- central (Germany, France, England, Belgium…)
- eastern (Czech Republic, Slovakia, Poland, Hungary, Russia…)
- northern (Baltic states, Finland, Sweden, Norway, Denmark…)

If there are enough organisers, then the 3 events of the European Cup will be in 3 different European zones. Ideally, the fourth zone will organise the European Biketrial Championship (EBC)


3. The deadline for the organiser’s application of a European Cup event is the end of January. The application form must be sent by the national E.B.U. delegate.

4. The E.B.U. Committee will select the organisers of EC by the end of February.
