Well done Bill, a lot of research and time that will be of interest to the future generations. Did you by any chance compile a list of the machones that the champs were riding at the time?

No Gerald, unfortunately not, I didn't even think about that at the time...regret that now

....even that was a lot of research...believe it or not...the Scottish Auto Cycle Union have very little information held on past champions which totally astounded me......

Only just seen the link to the PDF, it didn't show on my phone. Well done Bill!
Is that ok to add somewhere in the downloads with a link on the front, or still W.I.P. ?

Cheers for the list Bill.
Was the championship held at a series of circuits or a one off like the ACU did with the British Champs at Oulton Park back in the 60's and then resurrected in early 80's.

Gary,
In recent years Championship run between Knockhill and East Fortune, except a year or so in 2000's when East Fortune wasn't running Scottish Championship. Beveridge Park will be in there in the earlier years, and the more wiser members of the community can add others, which I am sure there are - Crimmond?
