TUESDAY 28th December 2010

NB due to snow the trail was postponed from Sunday 5th to Tuesday 28th.

Over 100 trials riders on British bikes built before 1967 - Matchless, Ariel, Greeves, many more. Riders come from all over England to ride a classic trial named after a Bexleyheath Club rider who was a wizard at building and preparing 4-stroke trials bikes.

Start 9:30am, free admission and program.

As a small trials club we are always on the look out for helpers plotting the sections (Saturday beforehand) and Obsevers - give us a shout.

With the picturesque woodland surrounding the "Canada Heights" International Motocross course bathed in a profusion of winter colour and smelling of leaf mould, its that time of the year once again to enjoy the smell of Castrol "R" and the bark of Big British fourstroke trials irons on full song.

Time again to re-wax the "Barbour Suit" and clean the "Dunlop Wellies" for the Sidcup Clubs popular "Jack Thompson" British Bike trial on Sunday the 5th of December.

Now in its twenty-first year, the event continues to be very popular, with riders coming from far and wide to compete on their cherished classic machines. The trial is open to anyone riding a pre-67 British machine and affiliated to the ACU, however this can be arranged on the day.

If you are traveling a distance and hardy enough, you can stay overnight at the venue. There is electricity on site, plenty of flat parking space, catering and toilets.

Due to the dark evenings the kick off will be 9.30am with machine examination starting at 8.45.

To make the trial more interesting for everyone the club would like to run at least twelve to fifteen sections which will need observers, so we would like to hear from not only our usual loyal band of enthusiasts, but also from anyone else prepared to help.

A light lunch will be provided for observers and hopefully some mulled wine, so if you are at a loose end on Sunday the 28th of December come along for a pleasant day in the chestnut woods and watch, or better still observe (see Peter Burton under Who to Contact).
