Enduro Classics Vol 2 DVD - Description
Tracking down quality footage of the great
Enduro events of the past is no mean feat – but as anyone who watched the first
volume of Enduro Classics knows, it is worth the effort!
This DVD continues the
story of the International Six Day Trial into the 1960s, with colour footage of
the ‘Olympics of Motorcycling’ in 1960 and 1966 and a look at how the sport developed
with the final round of the 1981 European Two Day Enduro Championship. Selected
from the BP Video Library, these archive films show the often gruelling
conditions competitors faced, and demonstrate the effort, stamina and skill.
They are also a wonderful opportunity to see, and hear, some classic dirt bikes
in action, including Moto Guzzi, Royal Enfield, Puch, AJS and even Lambretta! Austria International is the story of
the 35th ISDT, with plenty of action and a spell of controversy! Ife Er Folge charts the 41st ISDT, as riders,
including legend Sammy Miller, tackle a very demanding event. The
Scandinavian-accented commentator will raise a smile, and you’ll want to watch
the slow motion sequences over and over.
Finally, Austrian Enduro takes us to the final round of the 1981 European
Two Day Enduro Championship. Broadcasting icon Stuart Hall commentates on the
battle between stars of the day including Geraint Jones, Derrick Edmondson,
John Knight, Alessandro Gritti and Gualtiero Brissoni.
