In the early days of motorcycling, long distance reliability trials were really big, and one of the biggest was the International Six Days Trial (ISDT). As repeated winners, Great Britain hosted 4 consecutive ISDT’s from 1925-1928. The VMCC is running centenary commemoration events for each. This will show the bikes off on some of the roads they would have been ridden on at the time.

After a successful first event in 2025, the second in the series will be hosted by the North Staffordshire section. It will take place on Wednesday 17^th June 2026 at Buxton, the location of the original 1926 event. The historic Pavilion Gardens will provide the setting for 100 bikes to enjoy a full day riding parts of the original 600 mile route around the Peak District.
