The one hundred and sixty six starters for the AMCA Kendal Classic Club trial were blessed with beautiful summer weather. Many pre-65 and classic twin-shock machines on display it was an excellent event. With such adverse weather across the country predicted the course was possibly on the easy side but some excellent riding was witnessed. Superbly organised and with punch cards providing up to the minute results this event is now firmly established as one not to miss on the calendar.
