July 26, 201016 yr 41 riders took part in the Peak Classic Trials Clubs event on Sunday 25th July held at Waynes farm Ible near Matlock Derbyshire which was round 6 of the clubs 2010 championship. The course setter Darren Walker had laid out a comprehensive course consisting of sinuous turns around the trees along the steep banking then moving onto the rocks tree roots and mud mud mud lining the gully that runs along the bottom of the fields leading back to the start. After the prolonged dry spell of late some of the riders were surprised at the amount of glutinous mud which made the second half of the lap very tricky so say the least with the sections becoming very difficult after the first lap. This was why the club secretary Martin Booth decided to make the event 4 laps instead of the usual 5. Good call Martin. Sadly again the British bike classes were poorly supported with only two entries in the Expert and 50/50 categories and three in the Clubman class. The club would definitely like to see some more entries from the local British bike lads so lets hope for a few more Classic British Bikes next time out at Edensfield on the 29th August. Comiserations to the 9 retirees it was a tough one. As always the Club would like to thank the landowners, course setters and of course the observers.
