SSDT AND PRE-65 SCOTTISH 2021 – CANCELLED

-

Both the Scottish Six Days and Pre-65 Scottish Trials have been cancelled for 2021. It is a huge blow to the trials world, as both these two prestigiou­s internatio­nal events have a strong following of riders and spectators from around the globe who have for so many years made the trip to Scotland for the first week in May to attend the events. With both events cancelled last year, the COVID-19 pandemic left the Edinburgh & District Motor Club Limited with no option.

The logistics involved in the organising and running of both these events is a mammoth task to undertake. The planning starts many months before the events each year, hence the early announceme­nt. It is also a huge blow to local economies around Fort William and the surroundin­g areas who welcome the events and the revenue that it brings.

As we went to print, we were waiting for further news, but you can always go to the club’s website: www.ssdt.org for more informatio­n.

As Trial Magazine, our first visit to the SSDT and Pre-65 Scottish was back in 2007 and from 2011 with Classic Trial Magazine. We have been able to give both events extensive coverage, and we will Dave Cooper Trial Mag 0817.pdf 1 continue to do so. Long may the events continue.
