big john Posted January 27, 2008 Report Share Posted January 27, 2008 So who is number 245 then Big John is it you??????Will you be doing your bit on Nevis Radio breakfast show again this year? No it wasn't me on no. 245, it's just that it is very like my RTL. I rode in 1977 on a Bultaco. Wish I had rode it on an RTL in the eighties! Yes, just agreed this week to do the breakfast show with David Ogg of Nevis Radio. I'll post a link to the radio feeds nearer the time so that you can tune in on your computers!

madalec Posted January 29, 2008 Report Share Posted January 29, 2008 Some great pictures I went to my one and only Scottish in 82 so it brings back fond memories. I also took a few pictures myself on a borrowed 35mm camera, unfortunately I thought the film was rewound and opened the compartment, wrecking almost all of the pics. I'll see if I can find the one or two that survived. Also remember Paul Sagar was riding that year, I knew Paul as I used to ride in North Wales.

stefano Posted February 17, 2008 Report Share Posted February 17, 2008 Hi, Thanks for the nice pictures!! In my opinion Nigel Birkett (pic.20) is on a Fantic 200 (157cc) not on a Fantic 240. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats not Tony Scarlett on the JCM (99) its Patrick Fereud (I think thats his real name) otherwise known as MAYA, he was Berlatiers minder for a while at Aprillia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
