Anyone doing the MCC Exeter Trial in the New Year?
I've agreed to passenger a Dellow car for a neighbour in the next village (no roof, no heater so probably even more uncomfortable than a motorcycle)
Dark, cold, and probably wet.
I must be mad!!!!

You'll probably be sick as well trying to map read at night whilst being bounced around--be prepared!

No. But I'm hoping to assist (or spectate) on the Clee Hill Trial though...
Dig out that motorcycle heated clothing now Mr S....

True enough...I passengered on Tony Divey's TriKing many years ago in the Lands End Trial....but that was at Easter time.
Still, I can say I was once a 'works rider' as the TriKing business was owned by Tony and I was riding in his vehicle.

I don't think it will have an electric accessory plug...I'm rather hoping for a coal fire in the footwell!

The miracle of a modern battery will change your life (for the colder parts of the night anyway!!)
That or grab some gel hand warmers....
