The International Six Days Trials, often hailed as the 'Olympic Games' of motorcycling, were a series of annual events in which countries pitted their best riders against each other in a grueling six-day enduro-style race against the clock.
Riders were responsible for maintaining their machines throughout the six days, highlighting the necessity for mechanical nouse, as well as reliability from motorcycle manufacturers.
In this special feature, you will hear from motorcycle historian, Alan Cathcart, as well as former ISDT riders for Great Britain; Ron Langston, Gordon Blakeway and of course, Sammy Miller.
The aim for this episode is to give a brief insight into this unique and historic event, as well as the opportunity for some of its participants to recount a few stories, which we think you'll find of interest!
