Love that pic!

Andy Richardson (Hutch stuff) and Nick Fidler (Torker) - where are they now?

Can just about see John Gaughan (Falcon) and Robin Mason tooked in behind. I am probably in last in that one if I recall.

Holy Shizzza!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thats ME no5 Raleigh behind Darren,Lee Alexander on Scorpion..Gloucester BMX Track 1985!

One for Gossa/Darren - Check Darrens bike... is that the Rickman labelled up as a Raleigh that you mentioned on the TA topic? I remember talking to Darren that day and he was very cagey about what model it was..just saying it was a 'special' lol..

it certainly wasn't the same as my Team Burner..

Darren went on to win,Lee 2nd,me 3rd.

Cheers Flem/Woodsy... brought back some great memories there!
