Thanks to everyone that took part, it was a shame the weather was so hot and that it took a toll on many riders so we had considerable retirees who we hope have all recovered now. 

Massive thanks to the team this week, Dave Garner who was the Clerk of the course who was assisted my Mick and Mark Baldock.

Also huge thanks to all 13 observers, your time and efforts were greatly appreciated.  

Lastly, to our landowners Mr and Mrs John Santer without who we could not run a trial at this venue for so many years. 

See you at our next event on 16th July, the Man of Kent Trial on 16th July. The permit and online entry system should be available by the end of the week.

Weald of Kent “Murray Brush Trial” Updated Results – 25.09.22

Posted on by

Please find attached the results from Sundays Trial. Well done to all the class winners and to those that chased after them.

A huge thanks to you all, it’s vital as an organiser that events are well supported not just by the excellent entry level but by the countless people that offered to help set up, help pack away and most importantly observe and to give up their time to produce the results.

From the results it appears that Kev Collins, who was the Clerk, and his merry band of men set out a fantastic set of 12 sections. Unfortunately, we have not been able to use that piece of land for a few years due to Coppicing so a lot of clearing and brush cutting was carried out before the event, hopefully that will clear the pathways for next years event so will reduce the work levels.

We all have busy lives so “a little by a lot is better than a lot by a few ” not just in our club but everyone’s club.

Our thanks also go to the Landowners, Mr. John Orpin and to the Hooker family for the use of their land.
