Kelloggs 84 - Billy Stupple ???

[Nosnod]

Dug out some more of my pics from the Kelloggs 84 Tour at Wigan and spotted this one.
Got the magnifying glass out and lo & behold it says 'Billy Stupple' on the front of the number plate!

I presume it is you Billy in your traditional 'trying to pull your bars and stem out' style 

[tricknuts]

nice shot. Actually it looks like he's just landing a front flip

while the bobs have their invisible yo yo comp

[billstup]

That was in the height comp with the limited run up, thats either the one before or the one after the big bail which I am most fondly remembered for 

I think I`m just trying my hardest to get back into the ramp

That ramp looks so dodge.

Mustve been a mare to try and air on that !

[billstup]

It was quality back then Alex 

[QUADROPHENIA]

bill are you trying to avoid hooking up? i can never tell

[tricknuts]

its a real mystery why it toook about 15 years before we decided to build ramps wider than the bikes.

How high can you get nowadays Bill?  Could you replicate that air now?

[billstup]

I managed to get 5ft out of Satans Toilet last year, thats higher than I got on my one visit bitd, but can get around 4ft or so elsewhere. Need to get some more practice in, hense the backyard ramp, but I feel like I could get higher now than bitd if I could ride on the same ramp week in week out as the bikes give more confidence than the old school bikes, but that might just be a dream 

[tricknuts]

cool. Thats encouraging. I could only manage about 2 ft back in the day, so i guess i don't have so much to aim for.  That's great. Its a nice story to hear that 80's Uk legend billy Stupple is as good/or better than he's ever been. Good on ya- Ross

 :)them were the days wacked school that just to be there. still one of the best days of my life three sisters 84

[theRuler]

but that might just be a dream 

you'll know it is when you get 8 feet out, then realise you are just wearing your pants

[RADHAB]

Dont laugh a guy did that at the barn jam in 86-87 but in pants just and his converse boots and for some reason a necklace coming out of his nose!!! Was only about 4ft out though!!
