Met up with these two yesterday for a run out.
Back when I was 15 these were two of the local nutters on gt250's and rd's
Both mid 50's now but still out and about
The guy on the Kwak has two
Great day out sharing old tales.
I went with them to Oulton park in 82 for the transatlantic races.The one on the LC had a cbx with a Marshall 6 into 1 at the time.
We went to a nearby pub where he was pulling monster wheelies,it was a dark and everytime he put it down the pipe grounded out in a flurry of sparks. It was mega,some angel types who were watching kept buying him drinks to do it again
A couple of pics of them back in the day
lc rider
Kwak rider on his z1r which I thought was the coolest bike going

Thanks Josh Day? He's rapid, don't know why he doesn't go into British superstock
I am, and Cadwell too
Cool I'll keep an eye out bike looks nice and easy to spot too! Yeah he's a cheat ! because he was in stocks and won stock 600's good few years back made the wrong choices after tho with rides! He's back in it because his Mrs dad Phil bevan always used to win it. I done street stocks with ng and starts were a nightmare, too worried about keeping clean my second round at mallory 1st lap 2nd corner I hit someone at the chicane as I started way back I went flying he stayed on! Haha I am, and Cadwell too

You're in some good company there George!
Joe Ravenscroft is quick, he races at the Wirral100 championship too against a mate of mine.
There are some proper fast lads in that class! I'm hoping they will drag me along a bit still a fair bit off where I want to be laptime wiseJoe Ravenscroft is quick, he races at the Wirral100 championship too against a mate of mine.
I was going to do Wirral 100 but don't think I can get the time off work to do the test day so will give it a miss
