The Lands End Trial came through Barbrook (Beggars Roost)again over Easter.Only one Greeves bike this year Lorenzo Timms on his 24TE ex Monty Banks bike
Lorenzo rides the bike from his home in Surrey does the trial them rides it back home a round trip of 600 miles .Unfortunately after filling up with fuel at Barbrook the bike came to a stop after about 200yards the nut holding the float bowl on the carb came out never to be found. I did the decent thing a took the one off my TFS carb so he could continue (Villiers carb spares not easy to find at 2.30am on Exmoor) I belive Lorenzo gained a Silver a great effort by him.
His bike is a very early one the frame number is 24TE106
