Hi all.....

Some action shots of Greg on his M49 at the Trial.

Yes well done Greg. I believe he is the Twinshock Masters Champion and the TY Challenge champion this year also.
Great achievement.

Cheers
Andrew

Hello. Well done Greg! Just goes to show you what using a real twinshock does for you doesn`t it. Ross Brown`s M49 looks very good though it could use aluminium mudguards to look original. I wish I had of been there but I had to work, ah well. Graham.

Hi Everyone,

Thanks for the support and photos!

Graham, dissapointing that Queenslands No1 Bultaco Fan had to work, you would have made 10 competing on the day.

Here are some photos that Donna snapped.

Great weekend! I have some video footage of "The Hillclimb" i managed to film which i'll try and get online later this week.

How stiff was the competition!? I only dropped 8 points in 3 sections and i came all the way down in 7th place... :lol:

And who was in the Helicopter which landed on sunday afternoon?

cheers

Here is a short 1970 film that looks a bit like an advertisement for M49 and M27 Bultaco Sherpa Ts. Maybe some people who speak French can explain the narrative

No It's not a Bultaco publicity, it's simply a piece on 6 riders who decide to get together most sunday and ride in the Vercor area in France. It s funny to hear the speaker say that only one is young ( 17 years old ) most of them are over 40 and one of them is over 60 !!!!!! They don't race, they wait for each other . I guess that in the 60 in France, it was something odd. They don't mention anything about the bikes.

Now you know why I often don't use the proper term or misspell in english, I am a French Canadian
