March 8, 200917 yr Who are the current sidecar Champs in UK. Is there a World Champ series in either the UK or Europe ? Anyone have any footage of current worlds best in action.
March 8, 200917 yr How could anyone butcher a perfectly good trials bike by putting an outfit on it...
March 8, 200917 yr Hi Guy's Hi Ham2. A Sidecar, or Chair, is the right answer. This then makes it an Outfit, Regard's Charlie.
March 8, 200917 yr Who are the current sidecar Champs in UK. Is there a World Champ series in either the UK or Europe ?Anyone have any footage of current worlds best in action. Current British Champions are Jon Tuck / Matt Sparkes (Beta). There isn't a world or european championship at present. For a few years in the 90's there was an FIM Coupe that was always won by riders from the UK. I think 1996 was last time it was run and Robin Luscombe won it & me and my wife were secend. Last time we rode in France was about 3 or 4 years ago and the Pernoud brothers on the Sherco in the video were our closest rivals but I think we loast abour 20 & they were on about 50. Most riders in the british championship do the front wheel hopping, it's not that difficult.
March 8, 200917 yr Most riders in the british championship do the front wheel hopping, it's not that difficult. Hopping the rear wheel(s) might take a fair bit of practice and synchronised timing though

June 21, 200917 yr How could anyone butcher a perfectly good trials bike by putting an outfit on it... Even though you don't agree with putting a sidecar on a trials bike you must respect the ability to ride one so well.
June 22, 200917 yr check these out..! I cant believe how they hopped the front of that sherco accross!!!! The last of those Video's I made some years ago. I am riding that outfit on Sunday at the Peter Sparkes Sidecar Trophy Day and we have 10 sidecars entered so far.
July 8, 200917 yr Here is a Pre-65 sidecar in action. The rider seems to show a bit of promise - might have a future in this sport.
July 8, 200917 yr Even though you don't agree with putting a sidecar on a trials bike you must respect the ability to ride one so well. Isn't it a bit like line dancing, you can see its a skill but always come back to, why? Bit like people under 55 riding pre 65's, why?
July 8, 200917 yr Isn't it a bit like line dancing, you can see its a skill but always come back to, why? Bit like people under 55 riding pre 65's, why? I didn't have much respect or admiration(at the time) for what has become pre 65, but now really enjoy the sight, sound and smell of a bygone era. Line dancing ? Is that a drug reference ?
August 9, 200917 yr Isn't it a bit like line dancing, you can see its a skill but always come back to, why? Bit like people under 55 riding pre 65's, why? I can top that im 16 and im working on a Velocette to ride in the pre 65 class.
