Yeah its open, was up yesterday for a few hours. Think their were about 10 people in total. Last time i asked George he said 365 days a year!!

Not really my cup of tea (as theirs no seat) but having spent the last week testing a 24 seven jump bike i'm pretty impressed with the quality. 24 Seven Trials Frame

Wow, cool picture! Thats the swinging arm that was passed to Lee Comelio.

Apparently it wasn't a kawasaki engine it was a watercooled Honda 80cc trail bike engine. The bike was sprayed green though, so to my 8 year old brain that obviously = kawasaki. The lad who rode it, Andi Notman is doing well in Road Racing now. I'm not the best to help you with knowledge about them, i was only 8 years old when i had mine so all i can remember is being chuffed to bits with it. Was the closest i could get to my hero Eddie Lejunes bike. Was certainly lots about in the areas/clubs i rode at. Not sure you'd get your cash back selling it for a youth rider as theirs far superior bikes nowadays but its defiantly worth it from a collectors point of view. I'd have my old one back just for the fantastic memories. If theirs anything specific you want to know, let me know and i'll ask my dad. Think he built a few in his time at the Honda dealers.

I had one from Palin's in Derby where my dad used to work. Loved it especially when it was made in to a 65. A lad i rode with at YMSA had watercooled Kawasaki (i think) engine fitted in his. Can remember Paul Edmonson having one before me as my friend had his trick swinging arm of him. Seem to remember Luke Wood having one done in Rothmans colours. Will ask my dad what the numbers were on mine as he still keeps a book with everything, may help you identify it.

Have sent you a PM with a video taken there.

Mainly climbs with a few rocks thrown in, which is why i picked it for my friend to learn at. Pretty grippy, even in the wet as its fairly sandy below the surface!! Will post a video or photo from there once i find it for you! Theirs a trial on this sunday i think.

I've been going up most weeks teaching my mate whose just started riding, great venue!

Can't help i'm afraid but just had to say how nice it looks. Always was, and always will be my dream bike!!
