....these fellas are.....surprisingly quick on those short legged chunks of iron.  Respect.

These tracks are so much better than the over groomed tracks they race on these days. Great video, love it.

A truly great sport to watch. Cannot watch any modern motocross. All jumps and not much else

Pure nostalgia,I'm a big fan of off road stuff ,,not the show bikes in supercross,,got a health appetite  for classic  stuff on you tube,

Dave Bickers was something else......SO FAST on the Greeves.  Oh how I miss scrambling on the telly.

First up the hill on his 250 Greeves. Had an old 250 greeves in the 60s, Neat bike.

I used to watch the scrambling with my Uncle John in the 50's. Some lovely memories of Dave Bickers, and many others, before it became Moto X. I am into my 70's now, and still have a Honda Blackbird in the garage. Thanks for sharing 🤗

it wasn't 'motocross scrambling' in the 50s it was SCRAMBLING - even in to the 1960s .............. sakes

Very good film

Огромное спасибо! Несмотря на то что изменилась сама техника, и техника вождения, а законы физики никто не отменял, смотреть одно удовольствие! Это наше детство, это наша молодость, с этим живём и сейчас. В те годы практически не было возможности увидеть такое на экране, мы это смотрели наяву и, по возможности, старались принимать участие в подобных соревнованиях...

Gracias Philip muy chulo 👍 saludos

The "50's" reference in the title somewhat contradicted by the "mid-60's" referred to in the video!  I remember the black and white TV Saturday afternoon Grandstand Scrambles from my teenage days and all of those great riders - Smith, Vickers, Eastwood etc. I was so inspired that I took my BSA Bantam to Canada Heights which was just down the road, to attempt to emulate my heroes. Got covered in mud and seized the engine! Always loved Murray Walker's commentaries RIP.

In 64 I was a fourteen year old marshalling for the Derby Pathfinder club ,the fourstrokes were great to watch Matchless, Bsa triumph twins ,I hated the sound of the twostrokes, but they were the way ahead and when I started scrambling myself it was a AJS stormer 250 that was my choice because I couldn't afford a Husky

When you see the back end of these old bikes bouncing around the track it must’ve been hard going for those old scrambles stars but nevertheless a great memory off the golden days of British scrambling and with Murray Walker doing the commentary you can’t lose.

Thankyou for posting!

Très bon document , et quelle époque formidable , merci.

i allways yearned after a greeves as a kid , i remember watching the scambling at a place called BAYDON HILL  wiltshire just down the road from foxhill  back in the early 1970s , that was a track on the side of a very steep hill, it was all the way up and all the way down again , all those old 4 strokes and some 2 strokes , what a noise to hear .
never did get a greeves but i did have a montesa 349 yamaha dt175mx and a kawasaki kdx175 and used to hit the ridgeway as often as i could with them .still have the 349 and the DT and also got an ariel 350 thumper , great days and luckily we still have foxhill as a major track .

Murray Walker commentating that says it all 😊😊😊😊 !

Still brilliant

I swear I recognised that commentary within seconds and throughout. I must have seen this on Grandstand as a kid. The mind is a wonderous thing, like a Greaves ?
