Tough One

[Sammo]

Did anyone go to the Tough One and see the modified 450x , engine shifted forward by about 60mm and a few other mods. it was a totally new frame obviously just a prototype.

So, no more co-axial countershaft/swinger pivot arrangement?

I went... got a few pictures too.

Memories came flooding back when I saw these..

And a few of the riders.

They couldn't match this guy for speed though.

Here are a few more photos..

Lampkin

Jarvis

Knighter

Juan Knight in the Boulder Bash

Fat Tom

A good day out, Bit pricey on the entry fee which was why the numbers were minimal this year, but apparently lessons have been learned and next years event will be £15 on the door.
If any of you guys fancy going, then it is well worth the money to see how world class riders perform.
Knighters speed was awesome, He lapped all but Sagar (and only just missed him too).

Cracking photos, thanks for posting. i've been the last two years and the numbers were well down, the price was ok if you had a car load, we had six in ours , but if you couldn't fill a car then obviously you were going to be well out of pocket. i did see a mini bus with aboout 20 people in it, wonder how much they paid fair play to them.

We had 8 in a transporter.. £12.50 each and £15 for the travel lodge each.

Bit of cash for the beer and food.... A cracking weekend was had by all.

No, it had a Blue frame, looked like it had a lot of mods to it, the battery was relocated near the swing arm.

Thanks for the pictures Brompton92. What's going on with that clutch housing looks very different ?
