He won our 1st round of OSSS07 at Braintree in the summer beating Gary72 and myself................easily, thankfully it was the only round he did, otherwise id be riding a No.4 plate instead of a No.3 :LolLolLolLol:

Very cool bike, nice to see it getting used, but I can't believe for a second that he doesn't know the value of it...  not if rides with oldschoolers from this site ::)

Martin Parker's a dude and still an awesome rider (won a South Regional in Masters this season - not an easy thing to do against the likes of Miles Kirby, Paul Bennett and Daddy Whyte).

I didn't know this until recently, but he was the first person to pull a tailwhip on dirt in the UK back in the 80s  :4_17_5:

I haven't seen his Hutch Pro Star, but know it's his race bike from the 80s, so I hope he never sells it as that is part of his history/memories.

Amazing you were pulling that trick 20 years ago.

That shot was me on my Paterson (the same one Mad Malc tested in Action Bike) bought it off him, used it as a thrash bike for years - but sadly it got nicked.
