Moudon 2002

Moudon was my 2nd Trial riding my Bultaco M49. I came here in 1999, but the engine started to rattle and I just managed to go back to the park fermé and had to finish the Trial.

It took 3 years to find time to restore my Dad's M49 with the help of my friend, Bultaco Doctor and TWN Club President Peter Wohler. See link for restauration Bultaco M49.

So, now I was back and my Bultaco was ready again. To my joy and surprise, I met another Bultaco M49 prepared by Mario and even an M10 (1965) prepared by Fritz.

My Bultaco rode well, except for the last section, where I had difficulties to climb a 1 Meter step, I almost fell down, but managed with 2 feet to lift the Bulto up. ??? I then discovered, that the rear tire touched the alu fender on full compression, which caused a sudden brake! So, by by nice White Power shocks and hello new Betors, but now 36cm instead of 34cm. More ground clearance and better handling as side effect. Highly recommended.

The highlight and guest of honour was for sure Mick Andrews on his James. I rode 1 round behind him and must say: "wow, this gentlemen knows how to ride!". Amazing, how he saw some lines others did not see.
