TRAIN WITH BERNIE SCHREIBER

1979 World Trials Champion and the 1982 winner of the Scottish Six Days Trial Bernie Schreiber will return to the trials school arena with the launch of the ‘Schreiber Experience’ at the Alvie Estate in the Scottish Highlands. He is the only American to win the SSDT in its 108year history and the only American-born winner of the world trials crown.

Bernie will run his ZER(O)BS coaching and training experience in conjunction with the Inverness & District MCC Ltd who promote the annual Highland Classic Two-Day Trial on the Alvie shooting estate at Kincraig, a few miles south of the holiday town of Aviemore. The date set is Monday 10th June 2019. The training will be run over a full day, which includes a classroom session and some time on the machines, and will be run under a SACU training permit. The guest coach Allister Stewart, Chairman of the Scottish ACU Trials Committee will be on hand, and in a supporting role is the ACU coach Richard Allen.

Schreiber told Trials Guru: “When I was invited to attend as ‘Guest of Honour’ and take part in the Highland Classic, I thought it would be a good place to launch my ‘Experience’ and dovetail it with my stay in the Scottish Highlands over the weekend of 8th & 9th June. For the trial, Martin Matthews of MotoSWM is supplying me with a SWM to compete on and I will use it again as my demo machine for the experience day.

“My coaching techniques will be different from my old trials schools as a lot of years have come and gone since then and while the basic techniques have not changed so much as the sport, today there are new formulas of coaching and training that make an impact in building all the fundamental riding skills. The consistent routine of these skills is the blueprint to not only improving and enjoying the ride but finding your real potential.

“My big deal is that you always have to have a plan. Most people have a tip – everybody’s got a tip – but few have a plan. I always say ‘a goal without a plan is nothing but a dream’ so most people dream of riding better trials but they don’t have a plan to ride better trials. I wanted to help people to build a plan to take them from where they are to where they want to be. That’s what I do with my new Experience”.
