What a fabulous introduction to a great country…We’ll definitely be going back for more at some point!

A fab day at Bideford Bike Show in the sunshine ☀️

Soooooo many bikes, lots of smiles and it was lovely to get to chat to a good few people about bikes, riding and travelling with bikes. ☺️

We had our bikes on the @northdevonmotorclub stand with neilhawker41 ’s beautiful Dakar Rally bike…lovely to meet you and your dad!

Thanks @andrew.beveridge.927 for letting me have a mini pootle on your bike after a lot of egging on…so smooth! 👌

What a great turn out and looking forward to doing it all again next year!

A few pics from our day of marshalling at the @northdevonmotorclub Gordon Rogers Autocross.

We had great fun, the sun came out (very unexpected 🤣) and it was nice to be able to marshal for some of the car drivers who marshal for us lot on some of the motorcycle trials.

Definitely a great way to see some great motorsport up close to. Our first ever taste of an Autocross event, and quite different to the Targa rally we marshalled at last month. Both fun though! 😊

Have you explored Brittany before? If not we highly recommend it! Here’s my write up about our recent little adventure to see what this region has to offer.

In seven days, you can’t do it all and have time to enjoy photo stops, a bit of a mooch around, and of course indulge in French culinary delights, but I feel we got a good taste of this beautiful corner of France.

Plus we left plenty to explore another day! Win-win!

It also includes our GPX tracks and map outline for reference 👍

A huge thank you to @themotorcyclingclub and all of the volunteers, marshals, food / drink vendors, cake bakers, garages, photographers and spectators for making the 2026 LE trial another great one!

Despite a record number of fails for me on this event (4 I think), through inadequate skill or through poor decision making, I had a great time!! Thanks for the cheer for my efforts on the Blue Hills 2 restart! 🤣

From the lovely warm reception (including a cream tea 😋) at our usual campsite @resparvahouse Touring Park near Newquay, to the event start in Bridgewater, right through to the smiley sign off at the end (by this point having been on the bikes 24 hours), the people involved really made the event what it is.

A few technical challenges for both team Chicken Legs (@kelvinuk, Andy and Michael) and also for Pete and I who were running a bit earlier than the others. Fortunately all challenges overcome and adds to the trial experience! 🤣 All made it to the end 🎉

Write up to come!

Here’s my write up of the North Devon Motor Club Exmoor Trial on my small but mighty (ish) Scorpa TY125. What an excellent event it was to!

https://www.avvida.co.uk/post/2026-exmoor-trial-and-80-years-of-north-devon-motor-club

Great fun, even in the endless mud and rain! 😊

If you’ve not done this event before then I can highly recommend it! Whether you ride a motorcycle, a sidecar outfit or drive a car, it’s got something for everyone! 👍
