cool pic steve :daumenhoch:

The picture in question is the shot of him testing the Aero Pro Burner... I think he grabs about 7 foot of air in a sequence of shots off a tabletop jump and jumps over Schoffy? and Andy Ruffell? who are sat on top of the jump... I have the mag it was in but the pics are missing as i too had them on my bedroom wall... :)
-
Here's a picture I took of the great man. :daumenhoch:

When I got to race him at Bournemouth I was made up, I had loads of pictures of his on my wall as a lad.
Bloody VW's paahhhhh.

is the pic defo in a action bike?
-
Yes... Its in Action Bike :)
I think its the Aero Pro Burner Test issue...It has Sids Amazing Leap written on the cover i think.
Siddy.... :) I used to look forward to Action Bike issues so much more after he took the helm as Thrash Test Pilot.
Was his first Action Bike test the Torker 280X? ???
He was a quick racer bitd too...probably still is :angel: (most probably :D)
