Brian L Posted December 4, 2006 Report Share Posted December 4, 2006 Watch this clip and see if you can identify all the Hackney riders standing behind Len Silver Your knowlegdge of Hackney riders would have to stretch the 40's. 60's, 70's & 80's for this! Up the Hawks (Wolves & Kestrels)! http://www.vsocial.com/video/?d=42786 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shazzybird Posted December 4, 2006 Report Share Posted December 4, 2006 (edited) I can name 5 possibly 6.

I hope you got the one on Len's left, but you will need to cheat and look at your photographs to get the rider, behind the rider behind Len!!!

shazzybird Posted December 4, 2006 Report Share Posted December 4, 2006 I'm getting there and now can name 9 ish not a confident 9 but each time I watch I can name another now I know who that is behind Uncle Len as I was introduced to him but............. reckon I was full of vodka by then and now have to re-trace my steps to remember his name and I'm kicking myself for this as it was Monty that introduced me to him.

shazzybird Posted December 4, 2006 Report Share Posted December 4, 2006 Right think I got the rider behind the rider behind Len is it Dingle? if not then it's back to the drawing board Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian L Posted December 4, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2006 (edited) Nope, it's not Dingle. And I am telling the whole truth! I make it 15 riders that come into view including Len. And Banger looks like he's itching to pick up his beer Edited December 4, 2006 by Brian L Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
London Witch Posted December 4, 2006 Report Share Posted December 4, 2006 (edited) Not too sure about the related videos there, Brian!!! I spotted my all time hero, standing just behind and to the right (hand side)of Uncle Ted, wasn't interested after that.

London Witch Posted December 5, 2006 Report Share Posted December 5, 2006 Is Bobby Mc in the clip then? I think I prefer to remember them the way they were! My hero, is more of the Eastern European variety. In fact some things never change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shazzybird Posted December 5, 2006 Report Share Posted December 5, 2006 I was just thinking that, now it seems more of a business than a hobby that might or might not make you a career Think it would be nice for a few other tracks to have a re-union like the Hackney one I really enjoyed that, Now a Rye House re-union that would be good Except me little Ashley Pullen wont be there bless him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
