Falcace is right - No 5 is Colin Cook. The fact he has appeared more than once is just coincidence. Nothing to do with him being a great favourite of mine.:P

No. 6 was a photo of Colin at Exeter and I bet that was a sight to behold. Would have loved to have seen him belting round the County Ground.

I remember Bob Garrad in red leathers as well so perhaps that's why they look alike. I think he rode for Leicester at one time.

Are you sure? He looks to big to be Colin

Oh gawd - here we go again! :D

Having compared inside leg measurements, I am prepared to be proved wrong as I just assumed it was Cooky by the style, but must admit I'm not sure. Any ideas who then?

I had a disagreement with my husband last night regarding another photo of him when he said it looked too big to be Colin, but by comparing his gloves, leathers & boots was able to prove the two photos were taken at the same meeting. ;)

Steve.....No 3 - Jan Andersen. I have not got this rider, but as you are usually spot on because of recognising the leathers I might be inclined to agree if you can convince me.  :unsure:

Jan Andersson (Swede not a Dane :wink: ) is wearing those Halvarsson leathers a few of them used to have

 

Don't think they were Halvarsson leathers (made of Goatskin) but were Sinisalo. Jan was sponsored by them for a good many years

hehe :D:D

well cooky did have that wilsonesque pocket rocket style (or should that be wilson has the cookesque style?) but Garrad wasn't too disimilar although typically his style was a little more 'locked up' but sizewise he looks the part

 

It may help if anyone can come up with the later Leicester teams

Bah! I didn't think anyone would be able to get that one. :D
