Arthur Willians provided some Bits, so we shall start another page re this Date Event, here is the Monday Start.   This should have been termed International  Sachs Days Trial because 68 German Sachs Power Plants were in use.  Used in USA Pentons, Dutch Batavus, German Hercules, Britain's Dalesman plus 3 others.   297 Starters in this Isle of Man 20 to 25 Sept 1971 event.   297 Starters, Czech ran away with the Prizes, 143 Golds, 41 Silvers, 19 Bronze.  The Sachs promo Vans had goodies for all.  Ken Heanes, Malcolm Rathmell, Pease, Sandiford, Mick Andrews on Cheney Machinery took Golds had it not been for Mick Wilkinson getting penalties, (said to be after he offended the little fairies people) Britain may well have been in with an extremely faint chance. 

Brian Catt was there, his badge still here.
