May 2015 As I write, our president Brendan Smith is still in Europe enjoying the sights following his competing in the Scottish Six Days Trial. It seems that the SSDT was even tougher than usual this year, especially in the early part of the week, with Tuesday’s circuit being rated by many as being the toughest day in living memory. A combination of a very long circuit (around 100 miles), tough sections, terrible weather and a tight time allowance resulted in substantial time penalties for many riders. Unfortunately for Brendan, after surviving the day, a mechanical failure put him out on the Wednesday morning, but his Victorian riding companion Tim Lewis made it to the finish. Congratulations to both riders for their great efforts. I am sure that the SSDT bug will have bitten them and they will both be back for another attempt in the future.

  • The Provision of Off-Road Driving Sites
    The Motoring Organisations’ Land Access & Recreation Association The Provision of Off-Road Driving Sites First published: November 2019 LARA Document: 2019.11.04 © LARA 2019 You can find LARA at www.laragb.org and contact us at [email protected] LARA Document 2019.11.04 The Provision of Off-Road Driving Sites 1/5 Introduction This LARA Document was originally published in January 2016 as a part of Motor Sport Events in the Countryside. Good Practice Guidance for Event Organisers & Land Managers, the current version of which may be found on the LARA website at https://laragborg.wordpress.com/publications/ This paper is a brief overview of the subject, and good advice is to be found in the various Refer- ence Documents listed below, which explain why some sites succeed while others fail. 1. ‘Off-road driving sites’ largely fall into three categories: • Motor sport event sites – which include permanent race tracks like Brands Hatch and the wide range of permanent sites at which organised events take place. The bottom end of this category would be something like a moto-cross track on a farm, where the track itself is a permanent feature, although the land is grazed between events. Motor sport events sites might be owned by commercial enterprises, by motor sport clubs (comparatively uncommon) or by, typically, farmers, who allow access by licence or lease. In general, there is no ‘public access’ to the use of these sites. Control rests with the site owners and event-organising clubs. • Motor sport practice tracks. Bar a few such sites owned by clubs, these sites are op- erated by the small business sector.

This work was part of the ISA project, which developed ISA systems for passenger cars, motorcycles, and trucks, and tested the car and truck systems in real- world field trials. The objectives of the work reported here were: • To define a functional specification for an ISA appropriate for a motorcycle • To identify the additional safety hazards associated with an ISA when being used by motorcyclists • To select an appropriate example motorcycle and to define an ISA architecture suitable to be installed on the selected motorcycle as a proof of concept • To assess ISA functionality and performance as well as user acceptance A suitable vehicle was acquired and a number of design alternatives considered.

  • 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.

Please do not ride a bike before the morning briefing, unless you’re a section checker, and if you’re a section checker, get your bike scrutineered first. The Police permits state that no bikes will be ridden before the briefing, so if we’re having a ride and the Police show up, they can enforce the permit, tell us to pack up and send us all home. Frankly that’d suck, so please adhere to the rule. Moving on to better stuff now, Ian Pickering is still taking names and numbers for The Brass Monkey Ride at Moina on the 2nd and 3 rd of June. If you’re keen to go, get in touch with Ian and let him know so he can organise who can take what for meals. Also, it hasn’t been mentioned at all so I’ll do it now, there’s unlikely to be a polling place in the bush near abandoned mines and such, and the Federal election is on the 2 nd of June.

The long steep descents I raced in France last year is something I wish everyone could experience! MOUNTAIN BIKE GOALS FOR 2017 To race every WAGE race this year would be great as injuries have prevented me from this in the past, my goal is to finish somewhere close to the Top 10 overall in Elite. I scored a lottery entry for the Derby EWS in April, so I’m pumped to be heading over with the rest of the WA crew and racing in front of family and friends WHEN AND WHY DID YOU START MOUNTAIN BIKING? I come from a bike mad family so have ridden bikes all my life. Raced some BMX as a kid and got my first (very basic) MTB when I was about 12. Switched between motorcycle trials, motocross/enduro and mountain biking for around 20 years but never really “lived and breathed” any of this until I went to watch a WAGE race after we moved to WA from Tasmania around 5 years ago.
