This one was for the local paper, Jock Taylor collecting a new fairing from Les Siddle, owner of Lamplas which was a local firm most of us bought our bodywork from.

Apologies for the quality but they've been scanned and copied to death, I'm converting to digital all of my film shots but some are worse for wear.

Katana rider is Howard Selby at Silloth, Waddon rider is , I think, Andy Watts and it's the late Bob Smith behind SheeneKevin Mitchell on the Waddon, Dale Singleton the last pic, the guy on the Katana is annoyingly familiar, but who?

I can't imagine how white-knuckled the ride round Scarborough must have been on an F1 bike... or indeed, anything with some squirt...

The first shot is Steve Johnson who was killed at the Ulster in a crash with Phillip McCallan, it gets sad going through my old shots as the number of riders no longer with us is considerable.I had the same sponsor as Geoff, Mike Grainger of GT motorcycles Plymouth. Mike had a massive poster of Geoff on a GPZ900 in his showroom. Yet anothe sadly missed rider.

Well done, British championship round ( I think ) at Croft 1980 on part of the track that is no longer used, a shame as the old layout was far superior to the modern one, much better for close racing but the facilities weren't they were dreadful. The rider leading is the "Flying Coalman " from Barnsley Rob Brown.not sure who's leading on the 4th shot but the other 4 riders look like Andy Bond, Steve Henshaw, Steve Manship and Phil Henderson - Croft, 1980?
TZ750Ds everywhere

A rare shot of Dave Dean on the Mitsui bike, a late model TZ500 I think, is it 1981?
Croz at Mallory 1981

I'm trying the lot, some have been kept in carrier bags for years through my many house moves and are rather battered so whichever one comes out best I'll post but the earliest were taken when I was using crap kit as opposed to now when I use Canon digital.Great shots Greg, are you scanning transparencies, negs or original photos?
I'm finding and scanning as I come across them as we've just moved home again, I apologise for the quality and some are less "exciting" than others but after watching this forum for some time I realise it's full of enthusiastic and knowledgeable people who might enjoy seeing them.
