Rickman gathering in the New Forest

The impact made on the Sixties MX scene by Don and Derek Rickman with their Metisse machines is well known and the variations of marks are plenty.

There’s models with Triumph engines – unit and pre-unit – Matchless motors, Bultaco engines, Montesa power units and so forth.

Though predominately MX, the company did dabble in other areas such as road racing and road bikes.

To celebrate the marque there is to be a massive gathering on June 23, 2019 at Sammy Miller’s Museum at Bashley Manor, New Milton in Hampshire from 10am to 4pm.

The museum will be open too.
