Road Trip!

Nothing like a good long road trip. Malcolm and I (The Guru) made the trek to Minnesota for the 2-day AHRMA nationals. It was a ways up there but the trials was great and made it worth the trip. To Greg and crew good job!
The turn out was low. Somewhat disappointing to the organizers and workers. The event was well worth the trip! Those of you not able to make it missed an excellent event.
With rocks, climbs and a sandy/clay soil you had to pay attention to keep your feet on the pegs. Ole Steve Kirshner kept me honest and working hard. I prevailed in the end but he did not make the wins easy ones. Malcolm finished 2nd on Saturday to Kirk Tolly but came back Sunday to score his first National win! Good show Malcolm!
Sorry there are no photos of the sections. Just could not be the photographer and the rider too.
Now it's time to get ready for Wyoming!

Too Busy to Write

Well it's true, if we are doing something we can't be writing. The crew has been to R.Q.'s Vintage Acres and cut in the sections for the Sept. 17th ITSA trials. Looks like it will be a good one. Sorry for no pictures but Murray man, Pee Wee and the Guru all had their digital cameras....but they forgot the film!

We are also planning on a trials seminar Saturday afternoon the 16th around 2:00 or 3:00. The Guru is going to check the sections in the morning, when he's finished with that he is going to gather those interested and have a little school. He is going to take requests on what you want to go over.....then he'll probably do what he wants. So come early, camp and ride what looks to be a great trials.

Signature Model

2005 ITSA Modern Twinshock Champion Dick (The Captain) Septer has recently completed his new ITSA KT250 Signature model, autographed by the Champion himself. In glowing Kawasaki green, of course!


His plan is to debut the new machine at the next ITSA event, Sunday September 17th, at Vintage Acres in Palmyra Tn.

With initial testing completed, the Captain's new steed turns sharper, handles better, and is more powerful than his previous mount. This should make it easier for him to defend his title from all the stiff competition that he is currently facing in his class. Or win the Nubbie in fine style! Fire up the camcorders.....

Kicked Back....Job Well Done

The crew from B&J was again the lay-out team for the trials at the AMA/AHRMA Vintage Motorcycle Days for 2006 at Mid-Ohio. There was some serious carnage to the woods that we usually use, due to some severe winds. We only had about an eighth of the terrain that we usually have to work with. We still layed out a good trials, although the loop was kind of short!

After a successful trials on Friday here we see the crew enjoying a leisurely Saturday lunch, all the while dodging the worst mosquito invasion this side of the South American jungle.

After lunch we assaulted the swap meet, where we found the evangelical camper and the aforementioned soon to be Trials Suzuki Bearcat.
More to come......as always.

Mid-Ohio Treasure

Well we are back and with several stories to tell. I thought I would share the new treasure we found while cruising the swap meet. Believe it or not I was looking for one of these.
Here you see me carefully removing it from the B&J Race Trailer being careful not to scratch or damage it in any way.

Next gas on, ignition switch on, a healthy prod of the starter.....
and away...At speeds approaching 100 miles an hour!
So have you figured out what it is?
Well for those of you who haven't, it's a replica of the B105P Suzuki that Peter Gaunt built and rode to 2 Scottish 6 Day wins in the 150cc class. As well as a top 10 finish overall.
OK,OK ...So you have to use your imagination right now., but it will be...REALLY!
