Darlington &D.M.C. Trial, Bridge End, Arkengarthdale, Sunday. Bridge End was buzzing on Sunday morning as seventy three trials rider arrived to ride the Darlington Motor club trial high on the Arkengarthdale Moors. Nigel Cummins and his organising team plotted 13 (13) sections above the famed Scott Trial section. Thanks to Arkengarthdale Estates and Head Gamekeeper Richard Coates the trials course was long and interesting in particular when top North Yorkshire star Richard Sadler took up some form of gliding, without his JST Gas Gas. After a total of nine sections and deficit of just four marks Richard located a hidden rock with front wheel of his machine. That was the end of the day for the Leyburn joiner who pulled out with a battered right leg. He did try to ride section nine but there was no feeling or control in the injured leg. That exit put Guy Kendrew in the driving seat ahead of Tyneside visitor John Crinson and TRS mounted Philp Alderson. Roger Williams was the lone runner in the Inter class and Richard Fraser ran off with the novice division from Montesa mounted Guy Stones. Trevor Willans took the green class from Thomas Coates and Nick Royle. Twenty seven contested the class and the scores were dead on the button. Darren Fowler and Paul Sadler tied on three penalties in the Clubman category with Paul Astwood, Les Richardson and Sam Lambert were poised to strike if the top two faltered. Results: Hard course.
