Those in charge of bringing this first challenge of 2017 to a successful conclusion have been the Motorcycling Federation of the Valencian Community and the MC Off Road Team La Nucía, who have once again prepared a route with a total of 15 zones – 12 for TR2, 11 for Junior, TR3, TR4, Cadet and Women’s A and 10 for the rest of the categories – to be overcome in two laps and with a maximum time of 5 hours very similar to that seen in recent years.
That is, areas of dry earth and dust, with the odd root to be avoided, and the occasional section with loose stone among pine trees. All of them are very easy to access for the public and in the vicinity of the Ciutat Esportiva Camilo Cano de La Nucía, where the paddock was located for another edition.
On a sporting level, the winning riders today and, therefore, the first leaders of the SPEA RFME Spanish Trial Championship 2017, were as follows: Ib Andersen, in TR2; Rodrigo Marchal, in Junior; David Millán, in TR3; Àlex Canales, in Cadet; Adrià Albejano, in TR4; Berta Abellán, in Female A; Eva Muñoz, in Female B; Esther Sánchez, in Female C; Javier Palau, in Veterano; Carlos Palma, in Juvenil A; and Roger Casas, in Juvenil B.
