What’s New, Monday 18th July

Monday, July 18th, 2011

Hello all,

We’ve added Results for North Somersets’ Smokehouse 2day Timed Trial on 9th & 10th July as 1st Day & 2nd Day inc. the Overall. A Hamblin benefit? Jason was the winner & Mark the runner up

You’ll also find their [NSMSC's] TattooTime Chase Club Restricted Timed Trial Regs for the 13th of August.

That alert about Bike Thieves we put up a few days ago got National Coverage in Fridays TMX I noticed, but be on your guard just in case.

We hear fom West Wilts that both Ian & Ben Shuttleworth didn’t make the second day of the Knighton Round of the British Enduro Championship in Radnor Forest. Ian with injuries sustained when a driver turning right across him & into the drivers side of his van after the first days conclusion, & Ben with mechanical bike trouble. Tyson Maytom-Jones would have been disappointed with his 11th & 12th places.

That’s it for the moment. Frank

Hi all,

What do we have to say for ourselves this morning?  — Well, we all have to congratulate David Knight on the award of his MBE, – most of us can only dream about having his ability to ride bikes quickly- & must be pleased that his ability & success have been recognised.

We’ve also posted up the BSSA 4th Alan Brown T. Trial Results, the BSSA 2hour Brian Hudson T. Trial Regs & Entry Forms,  the amended N Somerset Weymouth Trophy Results & the West Wilts Hare & Hounds Results.

Remind me to tell you about my conversation with Gordon Jackson some time.

See you soon:   Frank

If you want a ride, get in touch with Kay Gerken as we’re accepting entries on the day unless or until the Entry is full.

See you Sunday I hope: btw congrats to Aran Poolman on being selected for the ISDE Trophy Team for Finland – Frank

ps We hear the TT Mountain Course was closed for several hours today as a result of a Practice crash – heres hoping it wasn’t serious but I fear the worst just from the time the Course was closed. Dangerous stuff Road Racing in my opinion

‘Chattering’ goes international! Tuck/Cross National Sidecar Championship Trial on Sunday 29/05/11

Friday, May 27th, 2011

True!

Dave Edolls from the other side of the pond [Canada] comments:

“I have just found the Regs for the Reg Lewis Trial – I moved to Canada in 1984 and stopped sidecar trials arround 74, although I remained scrutineering bikes and cars through to 84.
My surprise was that I recognised and knew the officials , things dont change, even remember Allan Brown, John Awford etc
what happened to Graham Manning , Allan Brown etc ?”

regards dave eddolls {dave.eddolls@bell.net}

Not sure I can answer that question Dave, so it’s up to you readers to bring him up to date.
You can do that via the website by adding comments to this post. They won’t show immediately but should be quickly approved & be visible/available.
I’ve included Dave’s mail address as well in case you want to get in touch directly.

Don’t forget Sundays Tuck/Cross National Sidecar Championship Trial based at Lambs Lair start time 10:00 o’clock organised by BSSA. I suspect any helpers will be welcome as there are always jobs to be done – Oh & there will be a catering van at the start as well!

Keep your feet up: Frank
