jim3751 Posted May 25, 2014 Report Share Posted May 25, 2014 He was a West Ham reserve when I 1st followed them in the 60s and I went over to Wimbledon only to find we had a weakened team. No guests then. Simmonds came good that night and if memory serves won all his races. Good memories. R.I.P Simmo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terry Posted May 25, 2014 Report Share Posted May 25, 2014 R.I.P Simmo. Â Although he was past his best when he rode for Hackney in 1987, he could still beat the best riders of the day if he was in the mood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westhamboy66 Posted May 25, 2014 Report Share Posted May 25, 2014 First followed Simmo in 63 at Hackney and was pleased to see him move to West Ham. Such a shame to lose two boyhood hero's in Simmo and Tony Clarke in such a short space of time RIP Malc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AFCB Wildcat Posted May 25, 2014 Report Share Posted May 25, 2014 Devastated by this news. I supported Poole throughout the 70's as a kid and Simmo took things to another level and was a legend in my eyes. Watched him on the shale and grass and he was a superb motorcyclist. RIP Simmo, thanks for the memories. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leicester Hunter Posted May 25, 2014 Report Share Posted May 25, 2014 RIP Simmo. The word Legend is often overused these days. Certainly not in his case. Very sad news indeed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spin king Posted May 25, 2014 Report Share Posted May 25, 2014 Not unexpected after reading recent reports, but still very very sad. Â Legend is a word use far to often these days, but in Simmo's case fully justified. Â RIP Simmo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
