stratton Posted February 14, 2013 Report Share Posted February 14, 2013 (edited) Was looking through all of my Vic Huxley cuttings and pictures what a great rider he was.But the name Syd Edmonds keeps being mentioned around that time how good was he?I have limited knowledge of his pedigree wondered if others new more about him.

norbold Posted February 16, 2013 Report Share Posted February 16, 2013 Syd Edmonds rode at high Beech in 1928 and 1929 and was in their league team in 1930 and 1931. He took over as captain on 1 May 1930 following Jack Barnett's crash which put him out for several weeks. He qualified for the final of the 1930 Gold Trophy along with Huxley and Phil Bishop. He also qualified for the final of the Star Riders' Championship in 1931. He was High Beech's no. 2 behind Jack Barnett and was a decent enough rider, not quite the top class but certainly a good heat leader.
