Yankee Trial Rules

A 'Yankie' trial is a bit of fun and has the marking system back to front!  You only earn points for a cleaning a section and each route is worth a different amount of marks.  You can elect to ride a different route on each section you come to if you think you can clean it.  So all yellow sections are worth 1 point, all red sections are worth 2 points, all blue sections are worth 3 points and all white sections are worth 5 points.  The object is to get as many points as you can, if you dab, stall, roll back or fault in anyway on a section you score no points for that section.  If you are usually a red route rider but think that you can tackle the blue route on a particular section and clean it then you stand to gain 3 points; equally if you are a normally a blue route rider and thik the only chance of a clean is to ride the yellow route then you only gain one point but that's better than faulting on a harder setion and not gaining any points!  Not as complicated as it sounds and I am assured it's a lot of fun!
