Well, here's something to do: British and European Classic Motorcycle Day

If all goes well and I survive the DMV tomorrow I might ride the newly acquired H1 out there.  Not brit/euro but its old  

The flyer says "trials demo" - any idea what's meant by this?  Any sort of trials comp or general trials riding opportunity involved?  I'd consider trailering up with the H1 and Montesa trials bike then ride the 'tesa in the trials stuff if that's an option.

they are usually vintage trials bikes doing a small course of logs,rocks, and obstacles no larger than 2.5 foot-ish, but good for demonstrating ultra-low speed throttle control in tight space....there was one guy 3 years ago doing it on an oooooooooooooooooooold small modified Ducati 350 single after the monsoon subsided and most were gone....he pulled it out of his trailer and popped over and just played...

Cool.  I have a trials bike and have competed just a little - I wonder if its worth hauling it out there to play with?  I'll probably just ride the H1 out, but the trials bike is a blast to toodle around on.  The trials bike is even quasi-euro (Spanish bike with a HRC engine and Showa suspension).

trials bikes are so generally light and small, you could potentially strap it to the back of the H1 and ride over with it on the back.

Oh its crossed my mind    I've seen folks ride to trials events with their trials bikes in tow behind big street bikes.
