Hi,

He was there again in 2012, Ross Thompson bearing the No 1 plate............just like the late Johnny Draper, the only man ever to win every solo class award in the Scottish - did in 1956.

Does this tell you something about the Offroad Archive strength?

Enjoy.

Hi,

Previous winner of the Scottish Pre-65, when he was dubbed 'the unknown Brian Cotterell' by the late Ralph Venables, spotted in the 2008 event for the archive by Jack Knoops, riding a 250 James, he won the event on a BSA B40.

Enjoy.

Hi,

Scotsman Dougie Bald spotted well up on Pipeline in the 2010 Pre-65 Scottish by photographer Jack Knoops.

Dougie looks to be going competently but - in the bad old days - we would have said an exhaust like that suggested the bike is slightly retarded!

Enjoy.

Ross you're a star at last mate... :icon_salut:

Nice images of Dougie.....the old devil was still doing the business feet up last weekend...and I have the pics to prove it, not bad for someone nearly hitting his 70's

Dougie, Ali and myself rode round untill Ali unfortunate had to retire. Speed Dougie rides, I'm not surprised his exhaust is blued !

Thanks for posting Deryk, John Innes involved in the organisation these days, Jock McC got the award for oldest finisher.

Hi,

To maintain balance and proportion through this fair land here is another Scotsman, Kenneth Whittaker with his 250 Tiger Cub in action in the 2011 Pre-65 Scottish, photographed by Jack Knoops (and copy supplied to the National Crime Agency..........)

Enjoy.

Hi,

In the 2005 Scottish Pre-65 it looks as though Mike Wylie (410 Royal Enfield) has been damaging the local rockery with his primary chaincase.

Photo by Jack Knoops. Enjoy.
