Phil you`ve just gone right up in my estimation  :LolLolLolLol:
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!'

and taught to drop in by 'billy style' by the man himself.

i'm very emotional about all of this.

you'll have to do a drop in simultaneously on vert with me at the christmas jam and i'll feel fulfilled

Me!
Do you know what "nemesis" means? A righteous infliction of retribution manifested by an appropriate agent. Personified in this case by an 'orrible cnut... ME!

Andy Paterson , Tim Judge , Bob Medrano , Tinker Juarez , Jeff Watson , RL and Buff , Bob Haro , Harry Leary , Greg hill , Ron Wilkerson , DMC , Mike D , Flyin Brian Blyther , Stompin Stu Thompson , Dave Vanderspeck , and for the UK it would be Andy Preston , Terry Jenkins , Carlo Griggs , Jess Dyrenforth , Pepi Winder , Charlie Reynolds , Andy and Neil Ruffell. I could go on and on all night to be honest. I have seen so many good riders over the years but this is my list that came to mind first.


You missed Fiola off your list Andy! :2funny: :2funny: :2funny:
