The Guru was attending the Scott Trial on 18th October and during a conversation was asked why it has been so ‘quiet’ recently, this was due to other activities which resulted in a lack of new material coming on-stream.
More importantly was the person asking the question… none other than 1974 Scott Trial winner and Montesa factory rider, Rob Edwards!!!
This gave us the idea though to put together an article on Rob himself, so watch this space!
Also we will be sharing some ‘exclusive’ photographs never before seen of Rob in action.
The format will be a short series of articles on the highly popular Middlesbrough rider.

Aah, I missed him. Haven’t seen him for years and would have liked to chat to him again – how was he looking?
Cheers
Peter
Rob Edwards was in great form at the Scott. It was a pity he hadn’t been at the start at 08.30 when Nick Jefferies; Gordon Blakeway; Sammy Miller and Johnny Brittain were interviewed on the start podium!
I remember practising with Rob in the 70s above Osmotherly is a great guy and extremely helpful to novice riders who I was at time.
