Sidecars at the Beezumph

Back in September 3 Merliners took part in the Beezumph track sessions at Cadwell Park. Here you see the outfits of John Dean, Mike Hardy, Bob Holmes, and Adrian Dawson. I think the lads all look a bit tired don't they? Overdoing it on the track no doubt!

Pete Wheeler's outfit


Pete Wheeler is now the proud owner of the stunning orange Yamaha Thunderace / Merlin outfit. The outfit has featured in several magzines in the past and now seems to have found a good home.
Here we see Pete sitting in outside the pub at Tan Hill, the highest pub in England.
By all accounts the outfit is going well.
Pete says
"I've been away on it every weekend since getting her, including trips up to Tan Hill, Cadwell Park and a few runs to the coast with mates on their R1s , who are gutted because they can't leave us for very long before they have the big orange outfit filling their mirrors again."
An elite outfit!
