Some more from my archives
First is Graham King at Ouston, we went there after Croft closed '81ish, next two are Keith Walker on his TZ & RG, the RG was an ex Mal Carter Donny Robinson bike. Next up is Neil Fowler, a local very quick lad and the last needs no introduction.

I know I've posted the Gary Padgett shot before but this should be better quality as it's from the neg.

Lets get in with the easy one Tuxworth on the Wicks.
Is the B/W pic #35 David Huggett?

Tuxworth at Scarboro, but I haven't a clue who the others are. Did anyone read Alan Carters book ? his comments about Tuxworth !!

Certainly did, I had a huge crash there May 79, hit the earth bank outside the first bend which was a quick left hander. wrecked my TZ and brought off several other riders, one was a lad called Adrian Andrews who sold me some pipes as mine were trashed.

Was that the same Adey Andrews from Darlington? If so I knew him very well way back and would like his contact details if you have them Greg, pm me if so, please.

Thanks to all for the positive comments, I'm trying to scan all my old stuff and store it on my hard drive but it takes a while and I don't have unlimited time, hopefully I'll get a few more done soon. Apologies for the quality but I haven't been good at looking after my negs.
