Eleven times British Sidecar Trials Champion Robin Luscombe and partner Les Ashby got off to a flying start when they won the first round of this year's Championship, last weekend.
Robin, is one of the country's most experienced and sidecar trials performers, and has won the championship in each of the last four decades. But he last won in 1999 so this season's initial success gave him just the incentive he needs.
Robin is a Director and General Manager of Colin Appleyard Cars, and is one of a number of Appleyard staff who participate in various forms of motor sport.
With a further nine rounds to go and the season lasting through until November, Robin is under no illusions about the task ahead. "We were delighted with this first win, but need to stay focused if we are to remain in contention. There are a lot of good riders out there," he said.
