Trev:
andy, i appreciate you telling it like it is. i was never actually a fiola fan as when i got into the sport he had just got beat by neil ruffell in the kelloggs and after that he never really done anything. but i can still appreciate what he did for the sport. there have been plenty of tw@ts in the sport over the years. every sport will have their icons that people will look up to, but in reality they are ar$3h0l3$. i have also heard many stories from other riders as to what mr fiola was like and i've not heard a good word about him. i heard glyn lewis nearly knocked him sparko. all i can say is that i never met him, so cannot pass judgement on him but if people i know who knew him say he was a tw@t then i'll take their word for it. but at the same time i can differentiate between eddie fiola the rider and eddie fiola the person. he wouldn't have been as famous as he was if he was sh*t.

Feeling a bit touchy today Peter about the age thing. Fook me what happened I went to bed in a good mood and woke up aged 41 :wtf:. It has gone so fast since your dad drove me to the shows at warp factor 7. It seems like yesterday to me. So I have learned my lesson and will spend the next decade bmxing in my spare time.

I think he was a so so rider and the rest was GT hype. If he was a boxer he would be Naseem Hamed , all show and full of himself but sh1t at the end of the day. I think Eddie would be the first to admit he is a tool.

Eddie Fiola:
I am a tool
