Getting harder to find unmodded bikes these days it seems. The Pre 65 scene seems to have relaxed reg’s lately?

Cool! To be honest I’ve only just started to learn about Micks achievements and involvement as I often visit the site in the video above where there’s an information board celebrating him. He still organises rides there apparently. Don’t think there’s much of a vintage scene though, probably lots of GasGas’ by the sounds of it - bit intimidating for my feeble TL!

Majesty Yamaha was Mick's bike I think mid 70s

Many years ago a lad from my village was sponsored by Sammy Miller. His ride was a TL 125 bored out to 150,but he came from riding a 325 Bultaco and he never really got on with it!

I rode a 370 Frontera once when I was 14, scared me stupid. It was glorious.
Yeah I can imagine, they don’t really compare! Sweet reliable little bikes though, good for learning technique on despite/due to lacking grunt.
I think tricked out Miller TLs had the High Boy 531 frames which shaved over 11lbs, so pretty light too.
