We welcome on board a new sponsor for the 2026 Highland Classic Two Day Trial – Pea Farm Enduro!

It is with great pleasure that we announce the naming of the Ladies award at the Highland Classic Two Day Trial – Scotland’s friendliest classic trial!

In honour of the lady who rode national, SSDT and ISDT events, with support from Comerford’s and Bill Slocombe on Greeves and BSA machinery, who would go on to become the Competitions Manager at the Auto-Cycle Union – Mrs. Mary Driver.

From 2026 onwards the Mary Driver Challenge Award will be presented for the Best performance by a lady competitor on either the A or B route. The winner of this award will receive glassware to keep.

The 2026 Highland Classic has negotiated an agreement for ‘TrialsPrint’ of Leeds to be the official number board supplier.

Formerly known as Kudu Products Ltd, they recently added the trading style of ‘TrialsPrint’ as it more accurately describes their committment to supply quality products for the motorcycle sport.

The company have been providing the numbers boards for 2025 as the original supplier could not supply a printed board at a competitive price. Russ Brodie at Kudu was more than happy to quote and Gavin Cairns Roughcasting sponsored the cost of the boards for the Inverness & District MCC Ltd.

TrialsPrint can be contacted through their website:

Make a date for your diary, the 2026 Highland Classic will be run at Alvie Estate on 13/14 June!

We will be celebrating the British Four-Stroke and our Guest of Honour is confirmed as Nick Jefferies, who should need no introduction to trials enthusiasts, being a factory trials rider and motorcycle racer at the same time! Nick has ridden some very exotic machinery in his career.

Of course two-stroke machines are always welcome at the Highland Classic, even although the emphasis is on four-strokes for 2026!

Nick Jefferies rode for the mighty Honda Motor Company on the specialised RTL models in the mid seventies and also rode the development CCM 350T for Alan Clews, so he is certainly no stranger to four-stroke machinery!

We are delighted that Nick is our guest of honour as his family are steeped in British motorcycling history. His father was winner of the SSDT and Scott trials and his elder brother Tony was one of Britain’s best road racers. Of course not omitting the many successes chalked up by his late nephew, David Jefferies.

So, please make a note of the dates, 13/14 June 2026, the entries will open on Sunday, 1st February 2026 at 20:00. Entries will be limited to 200 as previous years. If in the event we are oversubscribed then a ballot will be run.
