Vincent Vega Posted August 16, 2005 Report Share Posted August 16, 2005 Was watching a video the other day of the British Under 21 Final at Wimbledon in 1990. Screeny won the meeting with Loramski 2nd and Loobie 3rd but former Wimbledon favourite Nathan Simpson finished 4th. What is he up to these days? I think the last time he rode over here was for Eastbourne in 1992. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cliv Clav Posted August 19, 2005 Report Share Posted August 19, 2005 Thought I heard he was living in Australia, but I could be wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozpirate Posted August 19, 2005 Report Share Posted August 19, 2005 I believe Nathan Simpson was living down Adelaide way. I saw him ride at Gold Coast Labrador Speedway about 5-6 years ago. He still looked pretty sharp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nathan and Todd were my favourite riders back then! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spiderweb Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 Good to see Nathan still has fans over in England, I called into see him as I havent seen him myself for a while. I first met Nathan when he started senior Solos at the age of 17 I was a 22 year old sidecar rider at the time. thats (22 years ago) We were going to Renmark a SA country track and Nathen did dot have a car it was his first senior meet. We put his bike on our trailer and away we went 3 sidecar outfits and young Nathen. The trip was vey event full to say the least women, beer and racing. I cant go into any more detail as this is a g rated fourm!! Needless to say Nathen learnt a lot that weekend not just about racing !!! He still talks about it to this day.
