Trial is different from racing, but there's something in common in terms of extreme concentration. That razor-edge feeling where one instant of misjudgment costs you points directly. Takeda landing on the podium three rounds running is proof his mental game is dialed in too. A young rider clawing his way up against veterans like Ogawa — this kind of matchup is exciting in any sport.

If they'd also put out info on spectator tickets and venue access, it'd make it easier to actually go.

What kind of sport is trials, exactly? It's different from racing, right?

Right, it's not a competition about speed - it's a skill-based sport about whether you can clear rock and log sections without putting a foot down.

With young riders putting up steady results, the veterans can't afford to get complacent.

Trials scoring is hard to follow - just looking at the standings, it's hard to grasp how close it actually was.

Since it's a penalty-point scoring sport, the top riders' rankings probably flip on genuinely tiny margins a lot.

Yobito Takeda, three podiums in a row - that's incredible consistency, he's really coming into his own this season.

Tomoyuki Ogawa still running solidly in 5th - that's real veteran grit.
