Answer to the last quiz – Gordon Jackson – most famous for taking one “Dab” at the 1961 Scottish Six Days Trial, when he was a factory AJS rider – Quite a few got this – including Peter from OZ who mentioned he rode a couple of Trials with Gordon back in the day.

See below.

Quiz today – Name the rider?

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

Well! Friday proved to be a very busy day – my Opti Oil delivery showed up, so it was a case of some heavy lifting to sort that – followed by first a delivery via Ace Courier – then off up to Sicamous -and that was interesting – the traffic was like a parking lot all through Enderby with I guess a lot of tourists plus the fact they are still diverting Traffic at Sicamous because of Bridge construction. – Ah! well I got my exercise. plus got to chat to Kevin at Sicamous, who told me he still has the Beta 250 Enduro bike he bought from us and it’s still running great. – We have been doing business with his family since they were the Honda./Yamaha dealer in Revelstoke. – The Napa shop is where they are now, and the place to stop if you need Opti, in Sicamous.

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

Not sure what’s happening this weekend – Momma bear is away at the lake with our daughter, so I’m batching it. – I have an oil change to do on my TRS and will likely find other stuff to do in the shop – tomorrow we might go over to see Roy again, but not sure at this point.

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

I just came across this old pic of a 200 Montesa that Stan gave me, I guess I did a rebuild, but no idea what happened to it after that.
