I used to follow Louis as a scrambles rider and I first saw Jessup as a 16 year old.

A excellent choice, if I may say so Mr Bold, although I have liked to include the Hurri-Ken himself, namely the immaculate Mr McKinlay.

I was keeping it to riders I have actually seen and who have been my favourites during that time (apart from Norman Parker, though I have given my special reason for him).

Never stopped you from including Tom before! :rofl:

Still, it's nice of you to give some other names a plug... :t:
