Are you guessing a name? She's not Wisdom

It was quite common for men to wear berets in those days when driving in this type of event, which is why I thought it was a man. How about Aileen Moss ?

Not her

I really DID misinterpret the visual information ! It must be Eleanor Allard.

Not her

Betty Haig ?

No sir

I'll try another tack - this looks like one of the "localised" trials of the time, but I'll go for a stage of the Land's End trial?

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #33 on:** April 03, 2013, 06:47:22 AM »

Not that one

Exeter Trial ?

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #35 on:** April 03, 2013, 08:44:31 AM »

Not there

Lady Margaret Grosvenor?

That's her! Locked for you to supply the rest of the info.

Burledge near Bristol?

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #41 on:** April 04, 2013, 10:13:28 AM »

It was a club event. The club is named for a city in England. That city is not Bristol, though I suppose the event could have taken place there.

Still locked for you.

The answer is the 1946 Liverpool MC Jeans Cup Trial / Lady Mary Grosvenor?

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #43 on:** April 05, 2013, 08:27:36 AM »

That's it! Well solved.

nicanary · « **Reply #44 on:** April 05, 2013, 08:46:00 AM »

Well done, Richard. That was a stinker ! As the only other puzzler who had a stab at it, I bow to your prowess at investigation - I was even on the wrong gender !

Many Thanks, two days in the warm library (in snowy Kent) though, however I now have a new interest in Classic Trials to research!
