The Place

Can't answer that Steve but looking at the big wheelers with spoked wheels it looks a bit iffy with lots of room and exposed bits and pieces. The small wheelers (ours included) have much more bodywork around the rear wheel as well as non spoked wheels so do not have the same issue. I do not wish to upset anyone it was just an observation!

I only wanted post a few photos of a great day out I have been on here long enough to know how easy it is to provoke a discussion But I suppose thats what its all about.

However I did think that this bloke (Stephen Jackson?) was about to fall off.

Steve questioned "You don't have the rule that we do where that should be covered down to the platform then? "

Surely that is covered by ACU rules and not at the discretion of individual clubs

Sorry if we hijacked your thread Richard - good pics by the way - your one above illustrates my worry exactly

All in good fun Rich eh? I think that the Classics don't conform to all the Acu regs for regular machines Bob. Aren't there certain concessions made? Fair point trips it does look dodgy. What's really funny is there are people going up coppice there with arms elbows and heads on the floor inches from other bikes' wheels and none of us thinks that's in the slightest bit dodgy

well thats me riding number 14, after passengering for years, rear exit isnt dangerous, and is in period with the era, all rear wheel is enclosed, makes for and easyer time on the passenger, and doesnt upset the bike with passenger chucking himself about, classic club could bring in a lot more entries by allowing the rule, we had 3 classes of sidecar on the grid at the weekend, litle bit different to classic club with just the one class.........

can't see a number 14.......

i'm not doubting you Dave.....just made me look more closley when you mentioned your number......

All black leathers, with orange vest on, o and the black and orange daytonas, bikes got a fly screen, first season after the passengering lark for years,
