Grachan Posted April 19, 2004 Report Share Posted April 19, 2004 (edited) Weymouth picture: Bob Coles on the bike. Malcolm Shakespeare in the middle at the back, and Brian Woodward front right. The guy at the back on the left looks familiar too. It might be Doug Underwood. Then again, it might not. Not sure about Champ, but it could be Norman Hunter without a moustache. The Reading picture on 'Old Crusader' has Jan Andersson in the lead. I''l ahve to guess the others: Simon Wigg, Nigel De'Ath and Pierre Brannefors (or possibly Per Jonsson, but the padded shoulders make me go for Pierre!)

norbold Posted April 19, 2004 Report Share Posted April 19, 2004 Champ does look like Norman Hunter. Some preliminary thoughts on the West Ham photo: Left to right, back row: Howdy Byford, Bert Roger, Gerry Hussey(?), Tiger Stevenson (Team Manager), Jack Young, Wally Green. Front row: ?, Malcolm Craven, ? Over to you, CHK... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frigbo Posted April 19, 2004 Report Share Posted April 19, 2004 (edited) Eastbourne rider is Tim Ballard (i think) Champ is Norman Hunter West Ham rider is Brian Davies Canterbury rider in "Old Crusader" is Jim Crowhurst Reading riders are Andersson and Jonsson, Oxford are Wigg and ? (Ali Stevens) Weymouth team: Back, Doug Underwood, ?, Malc Shakespeare, Terry Tulloch Front, Kevin Bowen, Bob Coles and Brian Woodward Left Front in the West Ham picture is one of the Courtnell brothers (Maury at a guess) Edited April 19, 2004 by frigbo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iris123 Posted April 19, 2004 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2004 (edited) Thanks so far.Must admit i have not seen a picture of Norman Hunter without facial hair i thought maybe Dickie May but was totally unsure.Doug Underwood was another i kinda thought of as he was the only one i knew with that style of beard.I reckoned the West Ham team was 1952 or 53 and the foreign looking rider kneeling left possibly B.Hveem?.The only one i`m fairly sure of is the Reading vs Oxford one as i took that Frigbo, any idea of the year for the Weymouth team?

miro Posted April 20, 2004 Report Share Posted April 20, 2004 is the Eastbourne rider Tony Hall? Swindon 1969: Bob Kilby, Barry Duke, Barry Briggs, Mac Woolford, Pete Munday, Clive Hitch, Mike Keen, Mike Broadbanks on bike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
norbold Posted April 20, 2004 Report Share Posted April 20, 2004 I reckoned the West Ham team was 1952 or 53. The photograph says 1954 on it, which would fit in with the team members. I agree with bucket the rider on the front right is Keith Gurtner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

norbold Posted April 20, 2004 Report Share Posted April 20, 2004 I reckoned the West Ham team was 1952 or 53 and the foreign looking rider kneeling left possibly B.Hveem? No, it's not Basse Hveem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iris123 Posted April 20, 2004 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2004 (edited) Great help so far Must say i`m amazed.Any info on Brian Davies and Jim Crowhurst,must say i don`t know them Never heard of Mac Woolford either.Thanks Bucket the Southampton team i wasn`t expecting too much help with.How wrong i was. Put a few more on.The Dons riders i think one is Ronnie Moore.Poole 88 Its the back row on either side of Neil Street.Rye House 1, its the no 6 kneeling.Rye House 2 ,the one at the back between Naylor and Andy Silver and the one kneeling in front of him.The other Rye House team i dont know the two riders between P.Shroek and R.R Ta As for the Courtnell brothers i see there is a T.Courtnell listed in 54 whats his first name if its him,anyone? Must admit when i have looked at the photo i always thought front left looked like a Russian then saw Hveem rode around that time so presummed it was him.Thanks Norbold Edited April 20, 2004 by iris123 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frigbo Posted April 20, 2004 Report Share Posted April 20, 2004 Terry Courtnell. I believe he was killed in a car accident in S.Africa in the mid 50's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Custom House Kid Posted April 20, 2004 Report Share Posted April 20, 2004 Rider between Bert Roger and T Stevenson may be Pat Clarke? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
