The only rider from the list who I never saw in action is Vic Huxley.

Thanks Steve. Long time ago and age is messing with memory these days anyway!!

Will add Phil Baker instead - not too well known elsewhere but hugely popular in his spell as an all action second halfer at Weymouth.

:)

I remember him...

Darcy Ward - The most naturally talented rider I've ever seen. Gutted he's not entertaining us in the gp's.

Craig Boyce - Livened up a boring '95 British gp.

Leigh Adams - Superb stylist who wasn't hard enough to be world champion.

Jason Crump - Son of the animal!

Phil Crump - the animal! A strong bloke who won a lot of 16 lappers.

Jason Doyle - The most worthy world champion ever.

Todd Wiltshire - Fastest alive over the first 25.

Garry Middleton - The only rider who packed a revolver in his kit bag.

Ryan Sullivan - Smooth as silk around the EOES. Should've beaten Crump to the world championship.

Dave Hamnett - A fast gater. He should have achieved more. A Hackney favourite r.i.p.
