Anyone ever met....

I used to think Hollywood Mike Miranda was the sh1t.  When I was racing in the states and getting good he was working for Vision Street Wear and promised me a sponsorship deal.  He even signed a pad that I still have to 'clive, the hollywood of the UK'. I chased him a couple of times but nothing ever happened, flake.

I also used to really look up to Tim March, I lent him a spider at a race in Lowestoft and he promised me an MRD plate in return.  I chased him down for 3 or 4 nationals until he remembered but I did eventually get it.  We're good mates now and sometimes i remind him how he shattered the dreams of a young boy, he's not that bothered though, anyone that knows Tim will understand!

However, the number of amazingly cool people i've met has eclipsed these a million times over. I've stayed with guys, borrowed stuff, got stuff for free, had great, great times and forged many lifelong friends.

I remember racing a national in California and afterwards being invited back to Billy Griggs house to ride his backyard trails, stuff like that will stay in my head forever.
