Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

It’s good to see this thread reborn, and some familiar suspects resurface 👍😎
I’ve a fairly checkered bike history - road, trail, sidecar, trials, enduro and Hill climbing... haven’t been without a bike since I was sixteen that’s, erm, a chuffing long time 😜 Currently with a little Beta Alp trail bike 🏍

Evening all.
Currently suffering tennis while waiting for some bike coverage on ITV4 :-O

Riding a 1999 Hornet, well when I get through rebuilding the front brakes and fitting a new chain and sprockets this weekend :-)

Looks like I'm going to miss tonight's iom show, OX4 currently has a thunderstorm-induced powercut :-( . The lights go out here at the slightest provocation, we've had four powercuts in the past year or so.

It is still tennis :-(

Knowing ITV, they probably will not bother screening it...

Hello Ankles! :-)

Here we go, then. This was a North Somerset Long Distance Trial, way back before I'd broken any limbs at all

And here is pre-65 sidecar scrambling... It's a 1000cc Wasp engine in a Wasp frame (Salisbury manufacturer) which is the most exhausting, exciting and potentially lethal thing me or MrJB have ever done in a sidecar

And finally from me, this was a couple of minutes before it all went skyward and ended in hospital, metalwork and general unpleasantness. Sidecar trials - they were chuffing fantastic times, even if walking is a little different now :-p

Excellent photos, that second one is worthy of the "Fetch t-shirts on tour" thread fetcheveryone.com/viewtopic.php?id=59739 :-)
