International Six Day Trial Motorcycle Enduro

This International Six Day Trial Reunion Ride was held in the Berkshire Mountains of Massachusetts to commemorate the 30th anniversary of the 1973 ISDT in Dalton Mass.

The course was layed out by Dick Mann on the Jim Hollerich farm. The NETRA Pathfinders Motorcycle Club organized the event.

Wickstrand's holeshoot is a thing of beauty.

@atomicsaladbowl  Ooops, the poster IDed the band as "Creed." Don't really care for such a pretentious sounding vocalist, myself. And I agree with other posters that the bike sounds would be better. People don't really want to hear others musical obsessions forced on them.

@DJB99 The first type is called Observed Trials. 10 sections to negotiate without dabbing. What Americans long called Enduros were closer to the ISDT, but it had tests and standards that American Enduros never did.  Enduros were not races, but more like timed rallies. You had to get in on the speed average aimed at. A Hare Scrambles was an all out race cross country, like the Desert Races in SoCal. We had some in NorCal as well. Must have been elsewhere as well.

@atomicsaladbowl I don't know who it is, but the overdubbed music is not Jethro Tull.

[deaddoc]

@jlillie2 No, not JTull. No idea who, but not Jethro Tull.

Thank god for the mute button. Why can't people just leave the sounds of the bikes in the video instead of overdubbing some stupid song. I was there and WIckstrand was flying and it was better listening to the bikes then listening to my iPod.
