David Spruce has taken over from Jim Reynolds as the organiser of this year’s Borders Classic Bike Show at Cleobury Mortimer, Shropshire on 14-15 September. Reynolds, who has run the proceeds-to-charity show for 25 years and has been a long time contributor to British Dealer News, has not been enjoying the best of health, so is stepping back from the day-to-day organisation of the show although he will continue his on-stage compere and bike judging duties.
To mark the great job Reynolds has done for the local community and the show, Hobsons Brewery, based in Cleobury Mortimer, has brewed a special edition beer in his honour! Uncle Jim, a 4.2% bitter, is on sale now and through to the show in September.
Special guest at this year’s show is Gerald “Shortie” Short, mutliple British and European grass track champion. For more show information tel 07986 170715. For the beer, tel 01299 270837.
