Chaps and chapesses.

Just wondering if any one is thinking of going to the Red Marley hill climb this year, i went last year for the first time and had a great day, some absolutely mental racing and loads of great classic scrambles machines, what more could you ask for, apart from good weather for the day .

Arthur browning kicked ass proper on his awsome jawa metisse .......... CLASS

yeh, him, all i know is he puts that jawa up that hill like a crazy bastard who has just swallowed the whole packet of crazy pills, a geezer came off on the kicker near the top on a grass track bike, he didnt move for about 30 mins, hammered into the floor and those marshals did an amazing job of stopping the whole fuckin lot barreling back down the hill and its not till you get up there at the top you realize how steep that hill is.
Just had a gander at the site and classic trials is on sunday 4th april with the climb on the 5th, twill be a good day out for anyone that likes the old stuff

For the eagle eyed among you ( adam ) you may have noticed my earlier miss print, it was carl pope on the b50, he holds the track record at a knats over 19 sec's, any how its a good row between him and arthur, check it out on youtube, good stuff

You going adam ?.

I competed in the first Hill Climb at its current location (it moved about 6 years ago) and 'big Arthur' presented me with a prize for 3rd in class (pre 1950)
I'll probably be there this year

I did hear that it had been moved, must have been upsetting the ramblers again what did you ride adam, whats that kicker like when you hit it, looks pretty wild when your stood right next to it, the trough down from the start line that you have to hit full bore looks good fun.
Me and a mate was wondering if you can enter as a team on one bike so we could both get a ride, thats all we could possibly get together, he has an old tiger 100 in bits, we played with the idea of making a metisse but funds are short this year, specially as i just spent my doh on the xb, so, spectating again then this year, nice one on getting the trophy from the man himself.
Will def be going so yeh, be nice to meet up and have a brew

geordie mick, howz your side stand

You need to feather the throttle over the jump to keep the rear wheel spinning over the jump, otherwise you slam the forks down and crash. Too much power and you flip on landing and roll down the hill with the bike tumbling after you

A note of caution if they ride to Red Marley with Geordie Mick - ignore his offers of the "alternative" route home - you may well lose a week of your life you'll never get back

If I'm in the country - I'll be up for it this year.

What date is it ?
Could well go but will be on the stink wheel

We went to this event for the first time a couple of years ago and thought it was excellent.

We'll pencil this years event in as 'a possible' - it doesn't clash with anything else at the moment.
