The Stroud and District Motor Club has been in existance since 1950 and stages motor sports events throughout the year, mainly concentrating on trialling - both Production Car Trials (PCT's) and Classic Trials.
There are three main Classic trials run by the club each year starting with the prestigious Cotswold CLouds which is generally at the beginning of February and takes in a number of historic and newer hills in the beautiful surroundings of the Cotswold Hills around the Stroud area in which the club is based. The trial has its origins in the "Gloucester Trial", a fantastic old video of which can be seen here.
In March, the Mechanics Trial is run, being one of the oldest trials in the area and switched recently from November to it's March date.
The final Classic run by the club is the Ebworth trial which takes place in October entirely in the delightful setting of Ebworth Chase Woods.
