Despite the recent wet weather, there was hardly any of the mud for which Kentish trials are famous. The sections were laid out in traditional style with no tight turns or other modern nonsense. The Sidcup club can be relied upon to lay on a good trial and this was borne out by the number of heavyweights that entered. There were no fewer than 4 Ariels, 9 Royal Enfields and a mighty 14 AMC machines!
At the end of the day, riding the easy route , the first 5 places were filled by GRA members riding Greeves (they don't always!). First was Dick faggetter, next Terry Sewell, I was third, John Pattinson fourth and John Pocklington fifth, a good day for Greeves!
Spot the Greeves!
