Classic Dirt Bike Show Hosts Four Decades Of Stunning Bikes
Tumblr media Tumblr media
An eclectic mix of title-winning bikes covering four decades will be displayed at The Classic Dirt Bike Show sponsored by Hagon Shocks on February 11-12. Representing the 1950s is Jeff Smith’s 1953 BSA Gold Star on which he won the 1955 Scottish Six Days Trial. The machine is very easily recognisable – the BSA factory competition department drilled hundreds of different sized holes in it, giving the bike its name: Smith’s Woodpecker Goldie. Jeff won the 1954 Victory Trial on this bike in a rigid format before changing to swinging arm mode in mid-1954, after which he won many trade-supported nationals in 1955. The 1960s is represented by another famous BSA on which Scott Ellis, the Studley Midlands engineer, somewhat surprisingly won the 1965 British Experts Trial in one of the hardest ever UK trials events. Battered by snow and bitterly cold winds, Scott beat Sammy Miller by two points – 64 to 66 – in a winter Birmingham MCC thriller. Scott’s machine was highly modified, not having the usual engine cradle, having oil in the frame and a special light alloy cylinder. The cream of Britain’s trials riders had to play second fiddle to the 24-year-old who secured his triumph at the infamous and previously unconquered Bongham Alley sections in Wales. Tackling the bike’s reconstruction is the experienced Colin Dommett. It’s been stripped entirely since 1971 and will be displayed for the first time ever at next month’s show at Telford International Centre, which Colin and Scott both plan to attend. In the 1970s, ‘Magical’ Mick Andrews was truly the Monarch of the Glen, winning the Scottish Six Days on five occasions. French super-enthusiast, Olivier Barjon, will take Mick’s famous ‘cantilever’ 1974 Scottish winning Yamaha to the show. It was the first time that a cantilever or monoshock machine had won a major event. Mick hasn’t seen the bike for 39 years and will attend the show for a nostalgic look at his old steed, which has been impounded in the French Yamaha importer Sonauto’s headquarters for most of that time. Mick won the 1974 event, beating trials supremo Malcolm Rathmell into second place. In the 1980s, Telford guest Dave Thorpe was the king, winning the Motocross World Title three times in 1984, 86 and 89. He also took eight British Championships and the World Veterans crown. All his world titles were on a Honda machine, and two of them are still in the UK so Dave hopes to secure the 1986 bike to display at the show. Dave’s first two titles were gained in dramatic fashion at the Wohlen circuit in Switzerland each time from Belgian superstar Andrew Malherbe. For the title chase in 1989, the much-missed Eric Geboers was forced to play second fiddle to the powerful Brit. Since retirement, Dave has secured major success as the UK team manager for the 1994 Motocross Nations, guiding the British team to its first success for decades. These days, Dave works in an ambassadorial/promotional role for Honda, while also running Honda’s off-road training at all levels. He also still finds time to run the Honda factory’s World Motocross team. Thorpe’s career highs and lows will be revealed to visitors as commentator John McCrink quizzes the motocross star when they take to the stage at Telford.

In Sydney
If you’re new here, please take the time to first read this post HERE before proceeding with the following post.
These posts are in reverse chronological order and they should be read in that order.
-------
I claim my bags quickly while sweating profusely – the heater is on – its winter in Sydney. What is it about traveling and sweating and taking layers off and being cold and putting them on? My bags are inspected by customs. They are checking to see if any items are made of wood. Nope I tell them and all is well.
I take a different hallway to exit this area and it leads us through an industrial hallway back into the far end of the baggage claim area. Here health officials check my passport and then find my name on a list for the hotel quarantine. They do not forget to be kind and say “how are you?” Through the hallway another attendant is standing there. Hey I recognize this hall, that’s the way to the train that takes you to the city. A table has free sim cards. I take one. Outside while pushing my bag cart a very handsome military person attends the exit door. I say good morning wow rainy day! He obliges my conversation.
I push my bags forward slowly, there are too many stacked on one another and fragile items. I will go slow and not have any accidents. Ahead police tape leads me to check in with a group of military and police personnel who will direct me as to which bus to board. A police officer asks if I am traveling alone and then points me to my bus. She does not forget to say “how are you?” I push my cart that way and I am met by a military person who load my bags appropriately. On the bus myself and five other passengers’ social distance while we wait to move to our hotel. We wait for about 45 minutes. It’s a brand-new bus. I think the brand was called Telfords?
Our driver boards and couple in the front of the bus try to get information out of him about the hotel we are staying in. He tells us he can’t tell us. Then says “It may be ____” revealing our hotel to us. Which I will not share here for safety reasons.
We drive in the rain and wind to this hotel. We have a police motorcade. I think that’s good cause you never know who may try to escape – thinking their personal liberties are being infringed upon. It’s a silent drive and I finish my downloaded movie on my phone.
It’s 7:30am, still raining and windy. We’re wearing our masks. It’s been a full 30 hours of wearing the mask for me. The funniest part was waking up from sleep on the airplane thinking, “WHAT’S ON MY FACE” then remembering I’m masked up. It kept my nose warm on the cold plane, not too bad.

4 Essential Tips One Must Remember before Undertaking Roofing Services in Telford
A house is incomplete without roofs. It gives us shelters and protects us from the harsh components of nature (rain, heat, snowfall, wind). But often homeowners compromise with their roofing quality and end up with a low-quality service that requires re-work.
You must not forget these 4 tips before hiring a roofing service provider in Telford:
1. Installing New Roof over the Old One
Two layers of roof can be beneficial for you. Installing a new one over the old roof might save you dollars but sometimes the result can reverse. It will do more harm than doing anything good. 
Stripping away the old roof can come handy in cold climate where snowfall is inevitable in every winter season. Removing the old roof allows the installation of an ice & water shield.
Sometimes the old roofing material may cause complications in the replacement task. Consider all the factors that can influence your repairing action.
2. Quality Product is Important
Compromising with the quality of your roof is not advised at all. Bargaining and steal deals seem appealing but you can end up with low-quality products. While you are investing in your roof repairing service, invest a bit more and get quality service that will last longer.
3. Roof Material Shopping is also Required
Going through multiple options might be intimidating but it will enable you to judge several options. Often homeowners look for a pocket-friendly roofing material that can increase the cost in long run. 
Homeowners also prefer low-wage workers. But hiring an expert is important in this scenario. It is crucial to check the background of the roofing service provider. Ask for references from your friends and neighbor.
4. Hiring a Professional Can Save You More
Most of the time homeowners try to carry out the replacement task themselves to save some pounds. Initially, it might save you some money but you can end up with a leaky roof. 
DIYing is not recommended where your security is involved. Make your appointment today with one of the best roofing service providers in Telford!

Fireplaces in Telford
Tips for choosing the best fireplace in Telford
The fireplace is one of the most important parts of the house especially if you live in the UK where unfortunately the weather is quite often cold. Most of the people want to ensure that they have the best fireplace that will enhance the look of their interior as well as providing the essential functionality of keeping them warm.
Of course most homes these days have a central heating system but that doesn’t mean the fireplace is dead, in fact they are more popular than ever. So if you are looking for a great fireplace in Telford here are a few things to consider before you buy.
Fuel
There are three main choices to make here: Gas, electric and a real wood/coal burner. This will be the first decision you make before you start looking at designs.
Wood Burner
Obviously for a real fire you will need a chimney installed in your house if you don’t already have one. This isn’t as drastic as it sounds as it can be done quite easily with a pipe. All three of these have varying running costs. A wood burner can be the cheapest if you have a good wood supplier. Wood burners are also the most dangerous, probably not the best idea if you have small children. They also require the most maintenance and you will have to budget for a chimney sweep and regularly clean the fire itself.
Electric
Depending on the wattage electric fires can be expensive but it depends on what area you live in whether it’s going to be more expensive than gas. Electric require no maintenance and provide consistent heat at the flick of a button. There are no fumes to worry about and generally they are the easiest to install.
Gas
If you intend to choose gas then you must make sure there is a supply near to where you wish to position the fire. Gas fires will require a professional to install as doing it incorrectly could be deadly. You should also invest in a carbon monoxide monitor.
Design
Obviously this will come down to personal preference. There are many different styles to choose from. Traditional fire places are the most popular as they will look good in most environments. However there is a growing market for modern wall mounted fireplaces.
Wood Burners are incredibly popular right now and nothing beats having a real open flame in the house. There is something very special about it and it makes the house incredibly cosy. On a cold dark winters night there is nothing better.
You will also want to consider what kind of surround you want. Do you want a mantelpiece of a free standing unit?
Cost
One of the most important things to consider during the selection of the fireplace is your budget. You have to ensure that you select the material, fuel and service providers that will meet your requirements and your budget in the best possible way. It is important that you properly plan before getting the fireplace. Conduct a complete research that will give you the perfect idea about the things that you must select to keep it in your budget. Make sure that you compare two or more service providers so that you can have the best product at an affordable cost or discounted rate.
There may be interest free credit available depending on what you buy and where you buy it from.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fireplace
Construction
Make sure that you pay special attention towards the construction of the fireplace. Some materials are going to last longer than others. Wooden surrounds are popular and provide a really rustic and traditional look but it isn’t going to last as long as marble. Make sure that you select the highest quality material for the construction of the fireplace. This is especially important if you choose to buy online as you can’t always get a feel for the quality of the materials. If you do buy online make sure you hire a professional to install it in your home. An incorrectly installed fireplace could be extremely dangerous. Always check the reviews of online retailers and installers.
Weather
The weather in Telford should play a big part in your decision on what to buy. You may be buying it to enhance your living room but you want something practical which you can rely on as you get older and you start to feel the cold more.
The further North you live the more you will want something reliable and easy to use. Wood and coal burners provide fantastic heat but what happens when you run out of fuel and it’s the middle of the night? Consider this before you go down that road. Gas and electric are available at the flick of a switch.
Bottom line
It is important that you get the best quality fireplace that will stay with you and your property for a long time. To make this possible it is important that you hire professionals for the installation of the fireplace. We have the team of experts that have the knowledge and skills that you are looking for. Our team has the best reputation in market.
All you have to do is let us know your requirements and we will turn your vision into a reality. All our services are available at the most affordable rates so that you will not have to worry about your budget. Our quality services are the reason that we have gained the trust of our clients and they recommend us further.
