The Place

We all know the 4 in the pic, don't we? I think it's one for the kids to guess as part of their education.
God Bless the nearest in the shot eh? What a star he was. All say yes but don't tell 'em who they are!! Proper stars every one.

I was going to go with Barry Brindley (5)

5, Barry and - not sure but probably Scotty Whiteside

i just cant put my finger on who used to ride the other readymix bike??? give us a clue steve.

I already have Steve

i thought it was but now you said that, derek brindley then?! ive got fond memorys of watching all you guys in the 90s as a kid, the british champs had a seriously quality list of riders back then!!!

I watched them when they lapped us mate

dont think there was a weak rider in that championship! was you on the royal mail bike with ian at that time??

Yep, with Yangi. First year with Royal Mail. Did 93 with Yangi on a Windle that I think Rog Lovelock had next, with an odd ADM as in not Honda it was Yam Adm not Krauser, it spat the ignition off at Castle Coombe start of 93 and we had a lot of DNF's. Nearly jacked in that year. I wasn't really into racing as my dress sense would show
94 passengered bruv on the Krauser that Dad built his own bike for, was odd. If you didn't passenger it bruv drove it superb, I kept passengering it like a normal passenger and then we would have fist fights in the pitlane.. all my fault for trying to steer while he was doing it at the same time

i think what makes that era of racing stand out for me was (apart from the obvious the racing and quality of it) that the bikes all had awsome paint jobs,and then the fact that they were all two strokes.
My dads still got his krauser with the purple cases tried pestering him to let me and paul put it in a bike, but hes not having it

Ok its Derek and Barry on front row outsides, who is in the middle?

i thought it was steve abbott but i maybe wrong geoff?!
