Somerton Mcc ran the Gordon Francis Trial today at Binnegar Quarry.

The day could not have been more perfect, firstly 10 excellent classic style sections, exceptionally well laid out, once the mist lifted glorious sunny weather, and a good turn out, all the usual faces and plenty of banter and lastly a brief presentation to the eventual winner Barry Barthorpe who piloted his Ariel to a solid victory dropping only 2 marks to lift the trophy for a 2nd time.

well done to Somerton club for laying out 3 routes to ensure all abilities had a challenging but safe day.

if Carlsberg ran trials............................... :icon_salut:

I would have been there if it were not for the Western Classic MCC Guy Fawkes trial. We too had lovely weather and excellent sections. Just shows that the South West Classic trials situation is alive and kicking with top notch events.

A well deserved win for Barry, always puts on a good show and has a laugh and natter - what its all about in my opinion.

A big thank you to all involved in organising and running both events.  :thumbup:

Agree, but what a joke that clubs can't agree a set of dates up front rather than creating clashes like this, it ain't rocket science.

 

It's not like you can Sky Plus it and ride it later.

Hi,

 

Fortunately we now have coverage arranged and comprehensive photoreports on both events in the forthcoming ORRe - 32 .

 

There are 25, many full page, images from Somerton and 50 from the Guy Fawkes.  All are at least half-page, and many are multiple to show both drive and timing sides of the machines.

 

They are there to be enjoyed - are you missing out?????????
