Can You Identify These Speedway Riders?

Recommended Posts

Looking through my photo collection and found these photos who I don't know/not sure of/forgotten who it is!

Can you identify any of them?

If you leave your cursor over the photo it gives you the date they were taken.

Please don't guess otherwise it leads to confusion.

Bryn, Paul T might recognise some of these.

Cheers Brian

Had a QUICK glance (off to IOW in a mo!)

 

For sure:

 

3 = Jack Bibby

 

8 = Richard Pettman

 

Will study others later.

I have added a couple more photos...

Rider 10 a 'Stags' rider sponsored by ?? Entertainments

Riders 11, 12 & 13 with leading Rider 11 being Steve Schofield, but who are the other two riders? One is sponsored by JT Commercials, taken at an individual meeting around 1989.

Would rider number 9 be Pete Wigley?

 

I don't think it is Pete Wigley, I have pics of Pete from the same period he seems a much taller thinner rider and was using a white MX type face mask that year and wore his leathers over his boots.

 

I've added two more pics:~

Rider 15 is a Crayford Rider from 1977

Rider 16 - I think is Ted H of Rye House (need confirmation)

Rider 17 is a Crayford rider

Rider 18 is an Eastbourne rider 1978

 

Anyone know who rider 9 is ???? and rider 5 ????

 

Thanks for your help with this.

Is 9 John Hooper? 5 May be Mike Warren (but the leathers dont look right).
