I'm sure Rico won't be the last to walk away from Team GB.

Rod, I think Blythe (like MacKay) was born in England but emigrated to Aus. I've got Chris Blythe as being born in Liverpool.

Having checked, the rider in the meeting at Boston was: http://wwosbackup.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=priders&action=display&thread=2236

I've never heard of a F.Reeves. As that meeting was at Boston in 1978 (Eddie rode for Boston that year), I reckon it was Eddie and the 'F' is a typing error.

Octavio Nano should be Ottaviano Righetto (ex Eastbourne) The other Italian on the tour was called Battaglia. He didn't ride in any of the matches though.

Ward bottles it against the Latvian

The excellent "A-Z of Post-War British League Riders" CD for the 1940's by Hugh Vass and Matt Jackson has the following info for Cyril: 1946 - Birmingham 1947 - Stoke and Tamworth 1948-1949 - Tamworth 1949-1951 - Leicester 1951 - Birmingham 1952 - Leicester, Long Eaton and Birmingham 1953 - Leicester

Second part of the meeting was much better, but the first hour or so was pants. I switched to Dragon's Den at one point. Well Done to Team GB.

1950 I believe

I wasn't necessarily making one, apart from providing people info on Sage's career. Bit touchy I reckon!! Very nice they are too, Norman!
