spen Posted November 14, 2016 Report Share Posted November 14, 2016 Not a member, but I can remember it... and the numerous other clubs in every town and village. Bolsover pit was the first and last pit I went down, with other pits in between. Happy days.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spireite Posted November 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2016 Brockley Hill Bolsover held the very first all sidecar race , results are on thejohndaveypages.org website, i know Walt Bulloch is still around in Nort Notts and Dave Elvidge lives in the far east, they had some decent trials riders too, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twinshocktosser Posted November 14, 2016 Report Share Posted November 14, 2016 (edited) Can you recall venues where events were held. The only ones in the area I know would have been Thorpe Salvin, Amen Corner, Rhodesia & Teversal.

spen Posted November 14, 2016 Report Share Posted November 14, 2016 Thorpe Salvin was the best trials course ever, I'm looking out of my window at the 'Rhodesia' course now.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laird387 Posted November 15, 2016 Report Share Posted November 15, 2016 There are photos in my offroadarchive of Bolsover events which will all eventually find their way into our digital magazine, if only somebody could invent thirty hour days................ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spen Posted November 15, 2016 Report Share Posted November 15, 2016 There was a trial course at Guilding Wells near Shirebrook, I went there to a New Years day trial a few years back and met my old mate Brian Woods there letting his son have a play on his '60's Bultaco which he bought new when he worked for Jimmy Cunningham at High Street Motors, (Triumph dealer) in Clowne.... Excellent little course.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
