Rickman Day 2021 with Henry Cole!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 1 вер 2021
- On Sunday 1st August, we held our annual Rickman day, to celebrate the motorcycles created by Derek and Don that took the world by storm in the 60s and 70s.
This year held significance as it would be the first Rickman event at the Museum where Derek would not be present, having sadly passed away in July.
The event would take place as planned, with the day being dedicated as a celebration of Derek's life - with Don, Sammy and Mike Jackson leading the tributes.
Also present was Henry Cole - as some of you may know if you watched the telly last night! For those of you who didn't, you can watch the episode on catch up by following this link: www.itv.com/hub/the-motorbike...
We hope you enjoy this video and it inspires you to make a trip down to one of our future events!

We had a bike dealership in the early through late 70s that sold Rickmans, Pentons, Yankees, and Ossa. It was a cool shop to go into for a young teenager. The Rickmans were such eye candy.
How old is Sammy? Press-ups? What a man! I met him once at a funeral I was taking, and he invited me to the museum, told me he’d show me round in person.. I’ve never made it down there, but it’s on the list. To have his attention for a guided tour would be magic!
Sammy, what a legend. Hope I can be as lively at his age.
When i was a kid of 10 I got Don and Dereks autographs at a scramble at Leighton near Frome .They were so nice I think Don won the main race Ivor England and Derek came 2nd and third i think , although Brian Goss and Jeff Smith might have been somwhere all on what i thought was the most beautiful machine of its day the Rickman Metisse .
Don and Derek Rickman were my heros as a lad . My dad was a member of XHG club and we used to folow them round the various scramble meetings
The whole family went Sunday scrambling in the early 60s Westbury sub Mendip, Leighton near Frome .The Rickmans Jeff Smith Dave Bickers were our heros .
Thanks for uploading! Can't wait to take a trip down to the museum :)
I used to work at Rickman back in the 1980s. Just the best people ❤
A star studded cast in this one! Even a cheeky cameo from ol' pasty legs himself!
Brilliant man what else can we say - Miller as he calls himself
I had a 1971 Rickman Zundapp 125 MX back in 1976 when I was 13yo.
Got two basket cases and rebuilt one out of parts. Ball shift transmission very odd like Hodaka.
I wish I still had that bike .
Cheers
Excellent. I remember watching Rickman bikes 'Scramble' as they called it in the day.
I still have the Metisse my dad bought new.
: )
Legends.
legend.
55 now never got the car license so bikes almost everyday never seen the need to own a car. I really like Rickman stuff have a steel gas tank I widened by 2" or so and the sides remained intact/in shape after tig welding tough steel. 5 gallons or so now for 69 BSA roadbike.
Good old Henry Cole is living proof you don't need talent to get on .
👍🏴

Are there no barbers where the chap cole lives?
Metisse ~ meaning 'Mongrel' in French
It's not exact. Mongrel is translated by corniaud or bâtard, words about dogs of unknown or mixed races, in fact animals. The word can be extremely offensive if used about a human. Métisse, feminine of métis in French means human of mixed origins, for example European and African. It's also used about cultures.
Métis and métisse means also cloth made with cotton and linen. It's probably the last meaning which prevails, as the word metisse (and e is used instead of é) was used in English for the cloth. So it's a mix.
It's a wonder Sammy could get a word in with that big mouth there
good but can't stand HC
Not keen on Miller, or Cole and Cole proved the Rickman was rubbish on his South African trip, stupid choice even if it had been reliable anyway.
Rubbish indeed - your comment is the only rubbish around here . . .
@@vonryansexpress based on what?
Don't watch if you don't like Sammy. I do hate these English TV tossers, though.
@@redtobertshateshandles coming from someone in Aus who seems to struggle to put a few words together it's not really much of an insult, give an opinion by all means, but it is not your place to tell me or anyone else what to do or to insult them.

Sammy has an amazing collection of bikes, all in beautiful condition.
