The ACU Trials and Enduro Committee has announced the British women's team which will contest this year's Ladies Trial des Nations to be held in Tolmezzo, Italy, on Saturday, September 17, and the squad comprises Becky Cook, Emma Bristow and Hannah Styles.
Said an ACU source: "The girls in the UK have made it tough to pick the team this year, as competition has been close, but we have tried to mix experience with the up and coming in order to build a team for the future."
Becky (Sherco) recently tied-up the 2011 British Ladies Championship after being pushed hard by Hannah (Ossa) while teenager Hannah is improving rapidly. After narrowly missing out on the win last year by a single point and winning the year before by that same margin the competition with the Spanish team, led by multi World Champion, Laia Sanz ,on the factory Repsol Montesa, will be fierce.
However, the British girls have upped their game again this year and will be out to regain the TDN trophy.
The squad will be managed in Italy by National trial winner James Fry.
