Title: Superb Old School Pics!!!
Post by: Flatcap on February 09, 2009, 08:05 PM: I thought I'd share these with you.

One of my mates on Facebook who I used to ride with has been scanning in some pics. There's some more to follow so I'll add them as and when I can. The Neil Ruffell (R.I.P.) picture though I nicked off Eddie Roman.

Enjoy!

Sorry Gaz, I'm usually the one correcting people on their grammar!

However, there should be a space after the comma my friend. ;D

But thank you anyway.

Kindest regards.
