which bike advice
Hi all I am in a bit of a dilema - help. I used to be a schoolboy mx chappie around 15yrs ago and have decided to purchase a new bike for a bit of R&R. I am looking at the 250 cc range and have whittled it down to two: Honda and Yamaha and this is based on my experience all that time ago. I would appreciate some advice from someone who is a rider rather than a sales person. please advise
Posted by neil on 31 March 2008
Hi the best you can do is come a look oot tae the meeting at northfield on sunday and ask around there.
Posted by jamie robertson on 02 April 2008

School Project
Hi there,

I am a second year student at Stromness Academy doing a project on Orkney Motocross, I am finding it very difficult to find information on it would anyone be nice enough to give me some info or let me borrow books, newspapers etc with info in them?

Many Thanks
Posted by shannel flett on 14 January 2008
Hi

You should contact Donnie Grieve who should be able to give you quite a bit of information on the motocross club. He used to be a teacher at the Academy so they will help you contact him.
Posted by fred breck on 04 February 2008
