Nobody knows if he did or he didn't. He first proposed it though. Best I can come up with is that he nearly did it in 1977 according to his Son Gary. Leaves Dougie as the "first"

The "old" Gas Gas The Vertigo is a different kettle of fish.

I was simply expressing my surprise at how much development, science and tech had gone into a trials bike just for this attempt. I naively assumed that it would be relatively standard apart from some better pegs to stand on etc.

I was in no way belittling the achievement or 'pissing on anyone's chips'.

Stop putting 2 and 2 together and coming up with 58.

I saw the Bike before the attempt at Vertigo UK. It looks surprisingly standard. Given the Tank on the Vertigo is only 2.7 Litres that "hump" for the fuel is really needed. My son has the standard Combat Camo and it's a very good bike.
