http://classicrider444.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html

A lot of action on the bike front today. We will have to do some testing to make sure that eno...

Eventpost 64 - Stroud Valley MC Minchinhampton Cup Trial. I rode the first lap for clean followed by 6 on the second lap which included a soft 2 on a slippery cambe...

View my complete profile. Wednesday, 29 September 2010. Eventpost 66 - Wye Valley MCC, Trevor Hunt Trophy Trial. On Sunday the 19th Sept I went to the National Trevor Hunt Trophy Trial, run by the Wye Valley MCC. The trial was run on the old ground used in the Wye valley Traders national back in the 70s/80s and I had been advised before hand that it was a really good trial. What I did notice though, was that the BSA was a little down on power for the big stuff on these harder trials - not an issue for th...
