Answer to the last quiz – Mick Andrews riding an Ariel in the Pre 65 Scottish – Brett got this in just seconds after I posted it !! closely followed by Pete Varey! Mick did of course begin his Trials career on a Factory 350 AJS., although he made his name riding Ossa and Yamaha.

Quiz today -Who is this rider on a gorgeous day in the Scottish Highlands?

Below is Roger’s Newsletter and the Results of the last VMC Trial – nice to see some TRS bikes in there!! Looks like Ryon Bell is back in the hunt.

Here’s a neat old pic – Jock Wilson, Martin Lampkin and Alan Lampkin.

======================================

We had a visit from another new rider yesterday – Geoff is from Kelowna and had picked up one of my Beta Evo 200 demos – still looking great and one that I had put very special Outlaw rim tapes on. – We had a great chat as I explained what a Trial was all about – ( a bit of a history lesson as I explained about Trials events in the Valley)

=====================================

And finally here is a great Neil Sturgeon shot of John Battensby on Cameron’s Hill in the Scottish ( note he still has a finger on the front brake!!)
