scorpa3 Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 (edited) The entry list is out for the Union Jack Classic trial run by the Stratford-Upon-Avon Club on Sunday. Scottish Classic winner Neil Gaunt is a hot favourite but he will have stiff opposition from a field of very experienced competitors including, Mick Ash, Jon Bliss, Peter Salt, Steve Clarke, Nic Draper, Martyn Goodall and a numer of others. Also look out for some good trail bike riders who might just take the win, Honda mounted Keith Wells and Dave Eeles always go well in this event. The route takes in some excellent trials riding terrain and covers 35 miles and 35 sections. A bumper entry of 102 riders will start two per minute at 9.30 from Downs farm near Bourton-on-the-Hill in the Cotswolds.

woody Posted May 19, 2006 Report Share Posted May 19, 2006 Have the results been finalised yet? There's been no further mention of the trial on this thread and no report in TMX. I didn't ride it, just always interested in the results of this series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The event was a huge success with over 100 riders including six sidecars. Overall the sections were a little harder than last year due to the heavy overnight rain, but as you can see scores for the leaders were still on the low side.

woody Posted May 19, 2006 Report Share Posted May 19, 2006 Thanks for that. Looks like it turned out just right from the scores. Would like to have ridden it myself but didn't have the time regrettably. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
