no gossa i'm not george spiller but i know who you mean,he rode cruisers didn't he.

real names lee and used to ride harvington around 83-87......did 2 summer series championships there in the 16 year olds and the 17+ in fact you rode up an age group a couple of times so you could beat some of us older boys  :coolsmiley:
Karen murphy did the same thing when she rode for raleigh and remember sh*tting myself in case she mugged me off and beat me  :LolLolLolLol:

Raced the regional there and only lived down the road from the place....used to love harvington it was like a second home  :smitten:

I used to hang out there with tim o'regan (pro-tec on here) scot gilchrist, jo and keiran walklin,kevin gogin etc.

Those were the days....other regulars as well as yaself were the llewelyns,charlie reynolds,me old mate delbert husband,paul zak who ended up riding freestyle for raleigh,james rose etc in fact harvington track used to get a lot rad people there  :daumenhoch: still got my club licence from 84

Mate, I practically lived there too, used to live in Shirley.  That place has so many memories, I helped build it with Ken Walkling (RIP) and Gary Llewelyn too.  Pete Middleton and Jason Maloney used to come wednesday gate practice a lot and Ruffell came down a couple of times.

Man that place was just the best!  that gate was one of the first proper hydraulic gates too.

I remeber all those guys, Team Harry 'O' Spud Stone, Keiren etc and as for Kevin Goggin, I used to watch him cut down trees with a chainsaw at Foxes Wood!  That place was so cool to, Chris Yound and Trevor Chapman (Mongoose sidehack factory rider) used to rip it up then!!!!
