The Club aims to organise 8 'Trials' during the year. They are all 'Closed to Club' events, that is only members of Ilkandis may compete in them.
If four or more events
are run within a single calendar year then these form two (Social) championship
competitions. One for the driver, and a second for the nominated navigator.
For the purpose of the championships, points gained from each event are summated.
If a participant in the championship has not organised an event within that
season, then their best set of points are deleted from the summation.
The events may be entered with any "road-legal" machine, having the appropriate insurance.
Here is a quick guide to rallying for beginners, with luck it will get you started if you have never been on one of our events before.
See below for a breakdown of the events.
This is the first event of the season. Historically it takes place on or around
Spring Day. It is a main road timed navigational trial.
The event is run, usually, in two sections, starting early afternoon with
a tea stop and a further run to a pub finish.

The
Everyman
This is usually either an off-road driving test or a combined main-road navigational trial and off-road driving test.
It is called 'The Everyman' because the tests are so configured that any driver no matter how inexperienced, or in any vehicle, stands an equal chance of winning.

It is so called after two brothers nicknamed 'Dog' and 'Brother Dog' who were active in the Club during the 1950s and 1960s. - these being Fred and George Neail.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For the 2010 season the event was organised by Paul, Matt, Ben, Kay and Ann ran on the 26th of August.
For this event the winning driver was Bob, and the winning navigator was Alex.
Until 2002 this was an additional event that had not been seen in the Ilkandis calendar since the 1950's. It was added as an extra off-road driving test and has become so popular that it has become a regular event. This year it will be run as a partial off-road event but with a main-road section.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For the 2008 season the event was organised by Dave and Rob and ran on the 28th of September.
For this event the winning driver was Elliott Woolley, and the winning navigator was Gemma Woolley.
This is a night trial. Usually on or just after the weekend in Autumn when
the clocks go back. Formats vary, with one or two 'halves' the latter having
a pub stop, usually until closing time before continuing into the night.
It is named after Ray Gamble, who donated a number of trophies to the Club
in the 1950's. Mr Gamble was the proprietor of a thriving motor cycle sales
and service business in Ilkeston. The business still exists today.
The Gamble is unique within the Ilkandis calendar in that it sometimes contains a second event. Stemming from the earlier days of motor sport when lady drivers were rare, a 'special' event was created to encourage their participation. If there are three or more lady drivers taking part in the night rally, then a 'Ladies Competition' is deemed to be run within the main event. A separate cup is awarded for the highest placed lady driver, whilst they are still assumed to be competing for the overall trophy.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For the 2011 season the event was organised by Matt, Paul and Kay and ran on the 27th of Novemberr.
For this event the winning driver was Gemma Woolley, and the winning navigator was Elliot Woolley.
This is usually the last event of the season, and since the nights are now
drawing in, it usually has a late morning start. Typically, in two sections
with a pub stop for lunch and a mid afternoon completion.
