May 8, 20179 yr Stan Peel is the man who knows every farmer in Nidderdale and Wharfedale. The former rally driver and sporting car trials ace has been involved in the organisation of the trial when it was an Ilkley Motor Club event, before it was transferred to the Airedale & Pennine Motor Club. Barry Robinson was bike C of C when the late Peter Colman ran it for Ilkley Motor Club, and is now the Press Officer. Alan Forest is the owner of the motorcycle engined buggy in which Stan Peel opens the course, through every section enroute. Believe me it flew up Watergate at 08.00 on Sunday morning as if it were tarmac. Stan and John Bell are the driving forces. John is an absolute stickler for everything being totally right - which resulted in a virtually perfect enjoyable day for an ever increasing, year on year, classic motorcycle entry - forty-nine this year round the 80-mile course.......full photoreport in ORRe.
