I used to watch the old fella’s in cloth caps and waxed cotton jackets pottering around on their trials bikes when I was a nipper, every month we knew there was a trial coming because overnight loads of multicoloured cardboard triangles just appeared apparently at random on trees all over the small forest we [...]

It was just after 7am and just light when we reached the road, the Lions club were all set up and ready to go, hot drinks and food for all 55 of us, it was too cold to stand around for long and besides we all knew what we had to do and that [...]

I make no apologies this week for blatantly stealing someone else’s work and sending it to you all, I was planning an article on safe riding hints and tips anyway when I found this on the net, it sums up what I wanted to say and even though it was originally written in American [...]

I got up early and got ready to go, Moira had a steaming mug of tea and eggs and bacon on the table as I came downstairs, I looked outside and sure enough it was raining, not hard but the type of light flighty drizzle that really gets into all the gaps in your [...]

It started to rain just as I pulled out of my driveway in Kingston (south west London) the forecast was for rain and high winds all over the country, not the best start for a 250 mile ride but it wasn’t going to stop me getting to the Isle of Mann and seeing Joey [...]
