We ask any members of CRMC if they want anything (Motor Club related) added to the next edition of the news letter to e-mail Michael Williams or Lynn Roberts with their “story” to mymotors@btconnect.com. We want lots of people to contribute with their thoughts and opinions on all things to do with our sport. Thanks to all those who contributed to this edition.

Hare & Hounds, Nancemellin 12-06-11:

A very wet and muddy day greeted 80+ entrants for this Southwest Championship Round. Originally down for a 3 hour spectacular the appalling weather shortened it to two. It seemed that the rain had come especially for this event after some superb sunshine in the previous days.

Some very talented riders found this event tough due to the adverse conditions. Special thanks must go to all the officials including Steve Harris (clerk of course) for keeping the event going, and to Travelling Marshalls for all their assistance.

We should also give a very special mention to Andy Coad. His new course, which he had spent a long time preparing, was destroyed by the rain. It should also be mentioned that MORE HELP IS NEEDED at these events. Without assistance there is no way CRMC can continue to hold such events.

Charlie Lawer Memorial Trial, Nr Gweek 03-07-11:

In complete contrast to the H & H a few weeks before, this Trial took place in glorious weather. The annual event in memory of a true gentlemen of our sport was well attended with a good number of entries. Many of these took part on a practice day on the Saturday.

The event itself was put together superbly and was won, rather fittingly, by Charlie’s son Jason Lawer. It also saw some new riders try their hand at Trials. These included two Moto X riders, Marc Hoskin & Josh Gotts, both enjoyed the day but found it very hard going. Just goes to show just because your good at one discipline doesn’t mean you are at the others. (this is also true the other way round when Ross Youlton tried his hand at Moto X in June).

The trial was a hard one with many great riders struggling on the tough sections, Marc Hoskin was quoted as saying “It was very rocky, a hard day but I enjoyed it”.

Results Winners Only:

Expert Class: 1^st Jason Lawer

Clubman Ex: 1^st Andrew Goth

Clubman: 1^st John Oliver

Twin Shock: 1^st Phil Atkins

Youth 1^st Alex Lawer 1^st Toby Martin

Riding Moto X – “A Ross Youlton Tale”

Ross Youlton (Normally a Trials rider) Took part in the Partridge Ventilation Pre 83 Moto X on 26-06-11. This is his report:

Unlike our H & H The Terry Hobbs Trophy meeting was held in glorious sunshine. This was my first ever MX meeting, must be a mid life crisis! Riding two classes let me compare the over 40’s to the juniors. Sorry kids. The old boys are MUCH faster.

The “big” fast course started out like a golf course, but even so there were complaints of it being too rough at the end… Lets take them to Nancemellin.!

Some good prize money was on offer. £30 a Hole shot, £100 for the Terry Hobbs Winner. That prize fell to Ross Flashman on a CRF450 but he was pushed hard by a 1989 YZ240… until it blew up! My only prize was getting publicity over the tannoy. The commentator needed something to talk about when the back markers came round! Roll on next year. One MX a year is enough for me!

New Club Secretary:

The Club has been without a secretary since March of this year when Ruth Gilbert had to resign due to family reasons. We have no doubt Ruth will continue to support the club. We thank her for her time and commitment whilst in the post. It can be agreed she did a wonderful job.

It has to be said that it appeared for some time that no one wanted the role. This left club chairman Howard Stevens doing the job himself but it was made very clear for the outset that this was strictly temporary. We thank the chairman for doubling his workload for this period.

I don’t think anyone will ever beat Brian Jenning’s record of over 40 years. We would like to wish him well as he is recovering from a very large operation.

At the most recent committee meeting Lynn Roberts was voted in as the clubs new secretary. Lynn knows a lot about our sport having been around it most of her life. For those of you who haven’t worked it out Lynn is club president Melroy Youlton’s daughter. For any one needing to contact the secretary please do so on 01209 214114 during office hours or email mymotors@btconnect.com.

CRMC @ West Of England Steam Rally:

We will once again be taking our sport to the West Of England Steam Rally. This will be held for the 2^nd year at Stithians Showground on 19^th, 20^th, 21^st August. Our youngsters (and a few seniors) will be wowing the crowds with several arena trials. (although it is expected the lads will just ride all day as in previous years). We will once again be supporting The Handstand Appeal. Also as in previous years we will have a “commentary” provided by Proper Job Disco’s Michael Ross Williams (He knows nothing about trials but he can talk rubbish for Britain!). The arena will take some time to set up so offers of help are not only appreciated but needed. Please call Howard or Mel now to offer your services.

From the President

Reminder that there is a Trials Practice night on the last Wednesday of every month – next one on 27^th July at Gilberts Coombe. We are also hoping to arrange a skittles night at Townsend for the Rose Bowl. Anyone interested please contact MY

Reminder that committee meetings are now held at Tricky Dickies on the first Wednesday of the month at 8pm.Just to remind club members how devious & nasty people can be a club member had his bike for sale. The prospective buyer showed a handful of cash, borrowed his helmet, went off for a test ride close by then disappeared. So be careful.

Burthy Row Trial by Anton Ferris

A good day was had by all & the weather was very good. Congratulations must go to Raymond, Heather & Chris Anstey & we must not forget Bruce. A noteable absentee was our Chairman Howard as he was at a Scrutineers Seminar in Wadebridge. Course was very fair to all riders & my favourite section was ‘Bruce’s’. (As I type this ‘Anton’ seems to be lost for words which is unusual! Oh well never mind!)
