Mortimer Classic MC have announced their meeting dates and their date for the 100 miler is May 8th. God and Covid willing obviously! For those new to this event, it is a fun event for all concerned, and by all, I mean the pit crews have as much fun as the riders, so volunteers are needed to assist the 4 man (non-exclusive, obviously!) team with rider changes and general repair, first aid and sustenance.

It's an annual scrambles event which is probably unique to the Mortimer Classic Motorcycle Club in the UK, which involves a one-day continuing competition between teams of riders in which individual members of each team take it in turns for an allotted period to ride against one another, with a paddock-assisted changeover to the next member of the team until all team members have completed their riding stint. It is essentially a relay race which has the potential for any one team to cover 100 miles of the Mortimer track in the process. The actual number of laps a team may cover is not limited, hence a faster team may finish the day closer to the 100 miles, and the finishing order of the teams is judged according to the number of laps they complete, also taking into account their overall time ................. I think (?)
Teams must include a mix of Classic scramble bikes from different machine-age classes.Last edited by johnrunnacles; 05/01/2021, 08:11 PM.

Brian has already answered that question in his opening post, Ian, hence I didn't repeat him. See above, it's 4.
Take care, and stay safe!
