Scottish Six Days Trial (update)

[G.C.]

Update on Scooby.

Well , 4 (gruelling) days in and it looks like Scooby is about to complete his 23 SSDT

This is the only sight I have had of him so far, No 23, 2nd from the left.

more pics ,results etc http://www.ssdt.org/2005/indexmain.html

True to form, we have had sunshine, rain, strong winds and snow on the high ground.
Respect due to all competitors.

Does the SSDT still knacker a bike like it did in the old days?

i.e. do the SSDT and sell bike to some unsuspecting punter before buying a new one for next season.

Well yes that's it for another year No. 23 completed

Sorry I didn't see you G.C did ask Malcolm and clan at Sherco if you were around on several occassions, but obviously out on the GS.

That's not me in the picture, yes I was No.23 but was that this years Photo

Saw loads of GS's and tried to stop and talk to most you, time allowing. I saw somone who made there precence known at ''School House'' sections, can't remember your name sorry, but thanks for the encouragement.

Wraithwrider to answer your question, modern bikes take a bit more nursing round being much lighter, water cooled etc. but mine only needs a wash down and a bit of fettling and it will be fit for the next trial.

So only 51 weeks to go to SSDT 2006, in the meantime its the GS Adventure out on the Plymouth-Santander ferry 15th June for a spin round the Pyrenees, might see some GSER's over there

So roll on June and roll on next May for the best off road event in the world
