Well you have a handicap to start with, your leathers don't fit you no more :P

 

it's only 3 and a half stone i put on since packing up ... surely they can stretch that little bit can't they?

 

Mike Spink and Dick Searle did mention i'd put on a little weight :oops:

They wasn't the only ones Steve, I had to point out who you were to someone as they never recognised you either :lol: Steve Hone the "Gating Tart" never back then he was just "Tart" :lol:

In 1986 Steve rode in 5 meetings scoring 9 points and 2 bonus from 13 rides average :- 3.385

i had the tiny issue of 2 broken wrists and a broken arm from the week before Canterbury closed ...

i was bumming around a place called Poole, with rides now and again at Wimbledon, but unfortunately had signed a contract at Reading which i hated.

i went to Exeter half way through the season.

Dick Searle told me he would only give me 5 meetings in 86 because he wanted to use me on a 2 point average in 87 as after 6 matches i kept my average.

thats why i rode in the Kent Select v Czecho Select, otherwise i would have been up north somewhere riding for Canterbury.

 

unfortunately someone went and made the Canterbury track a horrible shape for the 87 season and i just couldn't get on with it.
