The next Westmorland MC trial on
SATURDAY June 17 will be an event that was formerly called the Bultaco revival
Nostalgia Trial by the Westmorland MC, and to continue the tradition of
encouraging the use of older machines, the name has been changed to THE
GENERATIONS TRIAL, with the individual classes being bikes of a specific age.
The classes are machines built either before 1980 or in any 10 year period
since then – see the regulations for the exact details, plus a Bultaco class.
Hopefully this will encourage riders to
ride a machine that they probably have “at the back of the shed” that they
don’t normally ride and whilst entries will be accepted on modern, up-to-date,
latest machines, this is an attempt to bring back into occasional use bikes
that have to all intents been abandoned. The categories are exclusively for the
machines, and the rider can be of any ability. The course will be of a
traditional type and suitable for all class of machine and rider. Please
support this initiative intended to bring together all bikes and all riders of
any age.
Entries can be made on-line through the
ACU Sport 80 system, but will also be taken on the day with a small surcharge
to encourage early entries. The venue will be the popular Home Farm, Middleton,
Sedbergh where previous trials of this type have been held.
