Bike Pictures

Hi All

 

Does anyone have any memories of the bike photo I posted? I think they must late 60s or early 70s.

 

There are some more of the bike in various states of undress which I do not have yet.

Trials bikes - Ernie Pack

pictures from an old film negatives which have been brought back with some digital help. From Jerry Pack although they are from his father Ernie. His Uncle Roger may be pictured in the passenger seat.
Any ideas of who, where and when?

Brooklands

From Andrea Lane

 

I am an enthusiast of motor racing circuits.

Brooklands has ever been my favourite one.

There is a “refurbishment” plan by DaimlerChrysler, but in this web page there is a much more interesting proposal:

If this proposal has thrilled you, please spread the word through the web ... and among the members of your club!

Doug from the USA wants to take part in The Edinburgh

I have had a mail from an American fan who would love to take part in The Edinburgh. Does anyone need a passenger?

 

The correspondence is below.

Doug,

Let me answer your questions below

To enter the Edinburgh Trial, which is organised by the MCC you need to be a member of the MCC. You can apply by following the link to their Web Site over on Classical Gas. (any problems let me know). As a member of the MCC you will get the regs and entry form sent automatically. As far as I know you do not have to be a British Citizen or be a UK resident to take part. As the 3 MCC trials are closed to club events you do not need a competition licence.

I see no reason as far as the club is cocerned why you can't run a hire car but if you meab Hertz/Avis etc I am sure they will object! and frankly it wouldn't be suitable, even for Class 0. There may well be competitors "in the trade" that would be prepared to hire you a proper trials car.

Road Insurance does not cover the trial. However the MCC can rrange it for less than 짙10.

I am sure that you could get a ride as a passenger. If you definately want to do this I and John Aley, Pat Toulmin etc will put the word around. The main thing is that the driver will want to be 100% sure you turn up on the night!

So the first step is for you to join the MCC.

Michael
