1923 The ISDT moved to Sweden and Norway, based in Stockholm. These countries also had not participated in the first world war. Accommodating the Six-Days was a definite advantage, both for the fact of knowing in advance the route of the race and for the number of riders that could be entered. Even the possibility of receiving assistance depended on the logistics and all these important factors played in favor of the organizing nation. In those years even the cost of organising the travel throughout Europe could represent an insurmountable obstacle. Langauge difficulties also represented a significant role. All the predictions were fulfilled and the eve of the sixth edition of the ISDT was the prerogative of the home crew, G. Göthe, G. Lundgren, Bernhard Malmberg and J.A. Bylund. 1924 The Belgian Edition at Chaud Fontaine, was enriched with a new competition cup.The World Trophy was reserved for the Senior category, while a new category was established for the younger riders with the Junior Silver Vase. 1925 The British economy had meanwhile fully recovered, and its power was reflected once again in the outcome of the competition. 1926 The following year the event was run around Buxton and the team that won the Trophy was composed of G.W. Walker, J. Lidstone and P. Pike. 1927 In the 1927 edition at Ambleside the winning threesome was L. Crisp, G.W. Walker and F.W. Giles, but it was remarkable to note that the silver vase was awarded to a female team this year. 1928 Also in 1928 the ISDT was raced in England, at Harrogate, and this time were three Englishmen, VC King, F.W. Neill and H.G. Uzzell, who were awarded the Trophy, while the other British crew that won the Vase, was made up of L. Crisp, G.W. Walker and F.W. Giles. 1929 In that year the ISDT returned to the continent, the turn of Germany (Munich) and Switzerland (Genève), but the substance of things did not change much. Both cups were in fact awarded to the British who lined up for the occasion GR Butcher, G.E. Rowley, F.W. Neill in the Trophy, and L. A. Welch, A.R. Edwards and H.S. Perrey, in the Silver Vase. |
