Early-Trial-Riding-in-the-Lake-District-01
At the summit of Blea Tarn Pass with the lofty Langdale Peaks in the background. A group of the successful riders who reached the top of this notorious Pass from Great Langdale. To the fore of the group is a Sunbeam, presumably the one ridden by T Rutherford who showed how it should be done; while the sidecar is most likely a Sunbeam also -perhaps that of Macdonald, though it seems Rutherford may have actually driven it to reach the summit. Other sidecar outfits (including Captain TD Craig's 6hp AJS, driven on this section by J J Dias) made it up, as did several other machines, with among those mentioned the 2½hp Clyno of R Pape, who made one of the best ascents of the day.

In some parts of the country those big-twin Indians with their sidecars on the right are a familiar sight. The machines were originally intended for the French Army. Here the men taking part in an invasion exercise are members of a Polish reconnaissance unit. An unusual military outfit we saw recently was a Terrot and sidecar driven by a Czech.
