There's some photos here http://www.flickr.com/photos/bigsteev/sets/72157603694028073/ (http://www.flickr.com/photos/bigsteev/sets/72157603694028073/) and here http://www.flickr.com/photos/bigsteev/sets/72157603835471443/ (http://www.flickr.com/photos/bigsteev/sets/72157603835471443/) of mine and I know Karl Fuller has posted a bunch on BMXTalk.

Post by: Paul Cannon on March 24, 2009, 09:11 PM: Thanks for the messages guys, I'd love to go along to one of the Hawks meetings this year sometime for sure. I'm even thinking about getting my old Supergoose back on the road 8)

Anyway, could you guys please give me the rundown on what happened to Winnie Wright?

I've read on here and another forum that he sadly passed away a few years ago. I can't believe it as me and Winnie raced together many many times back in the early 80's. He was such a nice guy, a real gent, and a great loss to the BMX world :(

Post by: MartyC on March 25, 2009, 10:52 AM: Winnie was a great guy Paul, I don't know the full story but I am sure that Uncle Buck on BMXTalk (Scott Dick if you remember him) would be able to tell you more.
