Thank you to all our generous supporters and thank you in advance to our auction bidders! Come and grab yourself a fantastic auction item on Saturday night!
With the run up to the Scott Trial, Paul Robinson Clerk of the Course, and his assistants have now assessed and plotted the route and sections, new and old. This year the route will run in reverse, with the underfoot conditions ‘good to wet’, add in the bonus of a dry break in weather leading up to the big day, and conditions are perfect for the event.
With this in mind, Paul reminds all riders to stick to the flags and not deviate. Spectators, remember to abide by all signs and information given in the souvenir programme and on the Richmond Motor Club website. This will ensure everyone has a great day!
With yet another full entry, and the expectation of large crowds, it promises to be an exciting, high octane event with the possibility that any one of your favourite riders can take home the Alfred Scott Memorial Trophy.
The other prestigious award is for those riders aiming to set Standard Time, watch out for Jonathan Richardson, Billy Bolt, James Stones and John Sunter to name a few who are all on a mission.
All that’s needed now is a ‘nod from the Gods’ to supply the weather!
The 2017 Scott Trial Official Souvenir Programme, in full colour, is on sale now and runs to 92 pages. It is packed with all the information you will need to spectate at the annual classic on Saturday, 21st October including a full rider list, course map and guide to places to watch. As well as being liberally enhanced with historical Scott photos and some features on the event landowners, past and present, there are points of interest which you can read up about when you are waiting for the first riders to arrive!
The programmes will be available at the start-field on the day and from the usual local outlets prior to the event. These include: Richmond Petrol Stations; Cross Lanes Store, Richmond; CJ Tennant & Estate Cafe, Richmond; Neeps & Tatties, Richmond; Smith and Allan, Darlington; Piercebridge Farm Shop; AG Bikes, Low Row etc. plus all the usual Reeth outlets. Priced at £5, all profits made from the sales, as usual, will go directly to The Scott Charities. Not going to be at the start-field or in these towns? Why not order your copy by post now, the cost is £6.50 including the postage and packing. This can be done by e-mailing your request to: scotttrial100@gmail.com Please make the subject line of your e-mail: ‘Scott Trial 2017 Programme Order’; payment details will be made available by e-mail reply.
