Oooooooo tough one this.

DMC is certainly up there, from the 80s and still rocking.


So if its long term riders then Hoffman has gotta be up there for me together with Jerry Galley - I love watching them both.

But some of the ns boys just take things to another level...Mark Webb, Martinez and soooo many others.

Fook...there's Mirra and Bestwick too.



Sorry too many, my head is going to explode.

Pop.

Not watched any videos for a long time, but when I used to buy them regularly, I always loved Taj's sections.

I'll agree with it being Billy Stupple, if for no other reason than this site bringing you all together again after all these years...and being a local hero  :daumenhoch:

Other than that  Eddie Fiola gets my vote for making bananas fashionable  :daumenhoch:

I like riders that were all-rounders. They didn't stick to just one kind of riding. So overall (pardon the pun) it's a tie between DMC, Wilkerson and Craig Campbell.

Well I better stick up for the racers, Eric Rupe for still being a world champ in his forties!

Oh, or maybe Daryl Young! So smooth and stylish....Or Richie Anderson for winning on tuffs......or, or.......so many.....

As a racer myself i'm gonna plump for a sort of unknown but he did race in the Kellogg's so some may remember him.

For me then its Nigel Murphy  :4_17_5:  If you're a Southerner you'd remember the name more, i'm sure gozza remembers him well.
