It was converted to race specification in 1992. In 2005 it was imported to Britain from Holland where it had been raced successfully in Dutch national championships. It was then raced in Britain and on the Continent, in HSCC and other events, until acquired by its current owner in 2011 after which it was used only for ‘speed’ events such as the annual Crystal Palace sprint and the Course de côte d’Etretat-Bénouvile where it holds a class record.
