Answer to the last quiz – Ross Danby – on a Jotagas – the bike Jordi was first developing before the split!! – Bob Clark got it.
Quiz today – Who is this Beta rider?
Below is a pic of Roger D – not looking too happy – maybe he just got a call from KTM? – We can’t help but feel a bit sad about this latest situation with KTM/GG/Husky – as it effects so many people and a lot of small enthusiast dealerships, many of who are long time friends.
Quote of the day – “I’m so old – I can remember when they called hard enduro – Moose Mountain”

A nice pic from years ago, showing Trials enthusiasts exploring the Mountains in Europe – Something we have enjoyed many times – a wonderful way to escape the troubles of every day life.
This pic just popped up on FB – shows me at the top of Joss – judging by the Beta Rev’s – it must have been around 1996 – We made 8 trips up the mountain before they shut it down – the last on my 75th birthday.

Finally a brilliant photo of Sammy Miller on the fully faired Mondial at the 1957 TT in the Isle of Man – I was there to see that. – I saw Sammy pass Carlo Ubbialli and Luigi Taveri in one spectacular move going into a corner on the Clypse course. – unfortunately he got robbed of the win, when the bike seized on the last corner going into Governors Bridge.
