Name as many riders as possible also the Vostock (I think)

Lovely video! Many thanks for posting!!

 

I'm not that good at that spotting game, and picked up only the obvious ones: Redman, Pasolini, Paddy Driver, Hugh Anderson, Ago and Mike... and was that Hartle with the cowboy hat near the end? I'm not even sure I identified Franta Stastny correctly.

Welcome to the bike-side Michael. 

[Michael Ferner]

Thanks, Chris, but I'm not new round here - though, admittedly, not as "omnipresent" here as on the main page!

[Michael Ferner]

No one else having a stab? How about you, Chris? Tony?

 

Come on, shame me!

I think I spotted Jack Findlay and Eric Hinton as well. John Hartle didn't race in 65 and 66 due to injuries

Luton Boy, Ago, Franta Statzny, Hugh Anderson (holding baby), Jack Findlay and Nanoo, Jim Redman, No17 on the Matchless I recognise but can't put a name to the face (is that Eric Hinton?).

Endel Kiisa with the (I think) 350 four cylinder Vostok.

at 3:22 Heinz Rosner

at 3:24 Nobby Clark

at 3:58 Frantisek Stastny

at 12:25 Eric Hinton

 

No 15: I guess its Lewis Young's Kirby Matchless, the guy on the bike is his mechanic. I have a picture for comparison, but the uplaod is too annoying for me, sorry...

I think that the guy in the dark check shirt working on the 350 Vostok is Sevostianov

[serafini]

apologies, I think you are right - Kiisa not Sevostianov.

Woollett took a photo of Kiisa at Sachsenring in 1965 and he is wearing the same shirt
