forum member 'richard100n' took part in the German Schotten GP with his Bob Anderson Manx last weekend and I had the privilege to meet him and his lovely wife Jen there.
There are some shots from the meeting, he is the one with 'J 63' start number

Strange thing about the German 'VFv' meetings is that the ranking is decided upon the consistency of your lap times achived during your run, so the first finisher is not necessarily the one who gets the laurels. Richard finished 3rd to Heinz Rosner on his works MZ and John Blanchard on a 7R in his first heat and finished third again to Rosner and a Bultaco mounted guy in the in the 2nd despite some clutch problems.
Well done Richard
Edit: The mentioned positions were the ones at the finish of the 'race', not the rankings related to consistency !
