The International Six Days Enduro is known as the Olympics of Motorcycling such is the ... more
enormous amount of effort, stamina and skill required to compete.It is a 1000 mile test of mechanical and human endurance - both off-road and on. Whilst today's bikes are designed and built specifically for Enduro competition, back in the Fifties, however, things were different. The event was known as the International Six Days Trial and the bikes were based on standard road models with hardly any modification.Enduro Classics features gruelling ISDT events with stars of the era competing in Italy, Austria and Wales during 1951, 1952 and 1954. They are linked by present-day reminiscences from gold medal winners of the past such as Jeff Smith and Eddie Dow. Two more gold medallists include Brian Martin and Norman Vanhouse, who were part of the BSA team who rode from Birmingham to Vienna and back to Oslo - a 4500 mile trip that won them the coveted Maudes trophy for achievements on two wheels. The team also competed in the ISDT en route and none of the riders dropped a single mark! The full flavour of their epic ride is featured here.These original films, together with the memories of the legendary riders, recapture an era when four-strokes dominated and an ISDT entry was a major adventure. Classic stuff - in more ways than one!

...Rewriter that most computers have these days).***
With both drive bays taken up on my PC, I decided on an external DVD Writer drive. Although more expensive than internal drive, it could easily be connected to my lap top should I wish to take my masterpieces and inflict them on people who didn't own DVD players. I jest of course!
In PC world, there were several external DVD drives on the shelves, but having had an external CD writer by Freecom which had been extremely reliable, I opted for the High Speed (USB2) ClassicDVD+/-RW Double Layer model. It was the most expensive at just over £120 at the time (much cheaper now, see below), but the best available.
The Hardware:
In the box was a black DVD RW which was slim and lightweight (it was also available in white), the USB connector cable, the power transformer/cable (PSU- power...
