Quality racer, Im glad Nikki made the race, beat me and Flaz as well as giving a few guys a run for their money.
Best bit from Sunday was watching her line Flaz up on the berm for a T bone. Flazs legs were going 10 to the dozen to get out the way :4_17_5:

Nikki shouldn't you be in Manc sorting the Chinese out tonight??  Anyway I'm not actually expecting to hear anything nasty about your racing exploits as we've already seen a taster at Hersden - T-boning & grass cutting - but I think there's some mileage in lane-crossing I've yet to unearth.  >:D  Now who should I be asking for the dirt??   ;) Humps

The other riders are the famous Harbour family. Ray who raced 40+ cruiser BITD, wife Barbara R.I.P , son Neil who races now in 30-39 cruiser ( 2nd behind Hilly @ MK ) the other week & daughter Sarah.

"At the time Nikki was racing I was not quick enough to be anywhere near banging handlebars with her, maybe if she got a bad gate I might have been close but generally she was much quicker. I do remember that she was a very dirty rider though, she wouldn't think twice about blatantly cutting someone off. I suppose you could liken her to a 90's version of Lucy Hale or Ellie Goodman but much worse. I never had a problem with Nikki personally, probably because I was never a victim of her elbows and handlebars!!!
 
Nikki used to be up there with the likes of Adele Croxon, Lea Pendleton, Vicky Overson, I can't think of anymore at the moment but there were often crashes to avoid if I was ever lucky enough to make the final. I seem to recall Nikki was pretty good at jumping though."

OK, Nikki, who did I get this quote from??   >:D  :D  Humps

Post by: Humps00 on May 05, 2007, 07:38 PM
OK Nik who said this??
"No Dirt on Nikki, her and her dad Mac were very nice people on the race scene.  Nikki was good  she won both the famous Tours race in France and also I think the USA ABA Grand Nationals as well.  Many  UK titles as well as you know, tell her I said hi.  Great  old skool pics,  glad everyone is coming back to race ..   I,ll make one of them one day. "

Post by: Humps00 on May 06, 2007, 06:07 PM
Anyone else on here want to guess who this is being rather too nice about Webdawg.  And is the USA ABA Grand Nationals bit true and if so when was it.  Sounds like some trivia for our man "xtremepervert" - where's Dave when you need him??   ;) Humps

Post by: Webdawg on May 06, 2007, 08:59 PM
Has to be either martin baxter (who videod tours) or billy wright who photographed the grands.

Defo one of them humpsxxxx
Title: Re: nikki webb
Post by: RATTY on May 06, 2007, 09:14 PM
Shit, I was with Martin yesterday, I could have got loads of dirt off him >:D

Oh well roll on next week :angel:

Post by: xtremepervert on May 06, 2007, 09:47 PM
I always remember following Nikki & her dad into the High Wickam track once. You had to go under one of those low car park barriers on the way in. Nikki's bike was on the roof rack, and you can probably guess the rest!!! Yep came flying off in front of us as it clipped the barrier. Can you remember that Nik?????

Nah, neither of them though I might contact them for more information.  Keep guessing Nik.  Humps

PS:  Wrong Martin Ratty.  That was a certain Martin Parker you were with at 'nham whereas Martin Baxter is at Cheddar with son Owen (riding James's Intense cruiser as well as his Formula 20")

1993 was the year :humps.  Actual result we're. 20" 2nd in race of champions (slippeda pedal whilst leading, where were clips then???) And 4th in grands, can remember crowser results, will look at the trophies, some 5ft tall thing :-)

Wow, real celeb in our midst!!  Nikki now knows who the quote earlier was from but come on guys let's have your thoughts on who it might be before I reveal all.  Bonus points in the Summer Series for anyone who gets it right (well I can fiddle the points if it helps someone and I'm not averse to bribery and corruption)  Humps  :angel: >:D

Thanks for posting the pic of the Harbour clan Ratty.I can remember following there old camper van up the motorway at no more than 50mph (that was with a tail wind !)to many a race. I was a disorganised mess,Barb would cook for me(and sober me up),Ray would sort my bike out (that never left the back of my car between races)........pure BMX family  :Great_Britain:
