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.

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!'
