er....
I lost track of time! Its a while ago. There was a memorial race at Chesterfield that I remember going to, but the exact year I really don't remember. I'm guessing mid to late 90's.
I feel bad now :-[

He definitely was.
The whole of the Maw family are fondly remembered by a lot I'm sure.
It wasn't that long ago that Jonty Maw was still riding up in the Grimsby area. A lot of the lads on www.gypobmx.co.uk used to hang with him and ride. Not sure if he still is though.

Another one was Louis Meers, also a world champ  :daumenhoch:
I see you stand like greyhounds in the slips,
 Straining upon the start. The game's afoot:
 Follow your spirit, and upon this charge
 Cry 'God for Harry, England, and Saint George!'
