Pleasure looking at them pics

always remember darren woods in the first kellogs series when he stacks and gets his head bashed,sitting in the ambulance being interviewed sounding like he'd took a right hander off of mike tyson

Flemo, check out the number 27 behind Woody from Lowestoft, me on my orange GHP!

But, check out Darren banging bars with JMC's own Carl Butler at...slagharen World champs?

Check out the chubby little Jamie Staff on the SE team!!!

Darren we salute you!

Yes, Woody emailed them after a bit of begging!!! not too good at posting so I volunteered!

I love the flatty at Lowestoft!

Has he got any of the Skyway freestyle team Flem, we did demos at quite a few nationals, and we were sort of team mates at the time

Nice one Flemdawg

Most of my old riding mates are in this pic sadly not me

Nice jumper Lee Shurey, David Landy in his MA2 (he was still wearing that aged 21!), a very young looking Lee Alexander, Tony Brennan looking old but young

Love the pic of the original Meanwhile Gardens and there are some class pics of the old Hayes track there

Probably bill, he's a hoarder that darren! you should see teh stuff he finds "under teh bed" or "in mums loft".

having said that I found all darrens old skyway race gear (jt pants, factory jerseys) in my mums loft a little while ago!
