  • When Did Enduro Competitions First Start? Motorcycles Specifically
    When did Enduro competitions first start? Motorcycles specifically intended for enduro competition first appeared at the International Six Day Trial (ISDT) now called the International Six Days Enduro (ISDE). The ISDE was first held in 1913 at Carlisle, England. The ISDE requires an enduro motorcycle to withstand over six days and upwards of 1250 km (777 miles) of competition; repairs are limited to those performed by the rider with limited parts. The ISDE has occurred annually, apart from interruptions due to World War I and World War II, at various locations throughout the world. The early events were a test of rider skill and motorcycle reliability. The earliest ISDE courses used the dirt roads common in that era. Today, most of the routes are off-road. In 1980, the ISDT was renamed the International Six Day Enduro (ISDE). Scottish Six Days Trial The Scottish Six Days (Open Reliability) Trial is an internationally recognized motorcycle competition, which has been running since 1909 (with breaks for the two world wars) making it the oldest motorcycle trials event in the world. Motorcycle riders from all over the world compete in this extreme sport, covering as much as 100 miles a day on road and off-road routes around Lochaber on each of the six days. The event is a trial of the skill, consistency and endurance of the riders, as well as a test of the specialized motorcycles used. Photos above were taken at Scottish 6 days trial 1955 Section A Scottish 6 Day Trial 1955 When was the first Dirtbike Invented? The first motorcycles were produced by companies like Indian, Harley, BSA, and Norton.

  • Scottish Sixdays 2012
    Scotland, I miss you! Was bleibt mir anderes übrig als Fernweh und Erinnerungen zu schüren, um 2012 die Zeit der Scottish Six Days zu überstehen. Jährlich regt sich schon im März der Virus, welcher mich schon 1969, im zarten Alter von 14 Jahren befallen hat und ich mich an den Helden der 6-Tagefahrt in Schottland orientierte. Wie sehr hatte ich mir gewünscht eines Tages auch in Schottland an den Six Days teilzunehmen. 35 Jahre später, 2002 ging dieser Wunsch in Erfüllung und es folgten 9 weitere Teilnahmen an diesem Mythos. Für 2012 war eine Reise nach Fort William als Zuschauer geplant, Low Budget mit Roller, Bed and Breakfest und Regenausrüstung,. Leider verpuffte das Abenteuer unter dem ökonomischen Druck. So verfolge ich die Veranstaltung eben über den Live-Ticker der ssdt.org website, wo täglich die aktualisierten Ranglisten der gewerteten Fahrer ersichtlich sind. Der aktuelle Blues lässt die Erinnerungen an meinen ersten Besuch der SSDT 1977 aufleben, wo ich mit meinen Töffkollegen Sämi und Werner die Luft dort schnuppern wollte. Back to the beginnings Sämi & Werner (XT 500) / Zeebrugge meine XL 250 / Factory-Red Mai 1977, meine erste grosse Reise mit der Honda XL, nach erfolgreichem Abschluss der Motocross Weltmeisterschaft 1976 präsentierten sich die Honda Werksmaschinen 1977 ganz in Rot. Ich traute mich damals noch nicht den Motor auch rot zu färben und fuhr so nur eine „Semi-Werksmaschine“. Die Bikes auf der Fähre Klein Walterli auf grosser Fahrt Dann in Hull/GB erstmalig der Linksverkehr, unsere Sprachkenntnisse und die Beschilderungen ungenügend, ab auf die Autobahn Richtung Norden und in die Highlands.
