Pete Varey, Brett, Bob, Harlow got it . as did Harlow and Peter from OZ.
Quiz today – name this young lad on the James !!
Adam Raga who recently announced his retirement from World Trials, is entered for the 2025 Scottish Six day Trial in May. – He rode it once before along with Jordi Tarres in 2000 – ( Both on Gassers) Harlow looked up the results which showed Adam finished 9th overall at that event.
Below is a pic of Rick Whiting who lives on Vancouver Island – Rick has been involved with Trials a long time, and attended quite a few of our Okanagan events back in the day – He also bought an Ossa from us at one point. This one shows him with the very nice 1994 Beta Techno , a model I really liked ( except for the short kickstart lever) Rick is also wearing the Outlaw riding pants, we had made in the UK by Anson – Great gear and we still wear the Anson Jackets, which are still in really good shape. Unfortunately Dave Anderson the owner had to shut down that business as the European Manufacturers started to cut prices. – ( But the quality was not as good) – It appears that Rick has just won a nice Trophy.
Below another nice shot from the Canadian Motorcycle Hall of Fame, showing the support crew from the VMC with Roger Boothroyd.
Roger does a great job for the Victoria Club and his Newsletters are both informative and interesting, plus he keeps a complete file on club activities from the early days.
==========================================
Here is a pic just sent in by Peter LeGrove from Australia – it shows Sammy King’s buddy Tim Coleman , doing a hands off demo on the Beta. at a Training session. ( Either that or he’s completely lost it!!)
===========================================
And as we now have some snow, here is a pic I took at Bear Creek many years ago, when riding on a cold winter day was fun – not sure who the rider is. ( But we know it’s a Beta)
=====================================
This was yesterday – but the driveway is all melted now.
