Hey Ratty, did you used to race for Hotshot? I can almost see the building that their shop was in from my back garden. I used to go in there all the time, and some of my mates rode for / worked for them.
Title: Re: All you old rad boys back on a bike
Post by: RATTY on April 27, 2007, 11:56 PM
Hi Alex, yes mate, that pic was my first ride out for them, the next weekend Les Windle took us to Holland for a european/us  race. I only went to the shop once when we did a ramp demo somewhere in Oxford, I ended up in the Radcliffe hospital.. :2funny:

I still talk to Jane every once in a while :daumenhoch:

i thought that was just a subtle way of getting your breath back... it's in the old git's manual of getting back into riding.

ride for 30 seconds, then talk b*ll**ks about how great it was in the old days, catch your breath, then have another roll around the park...
