    Nice bit of nostalgia chris, & after all these years, andy roberton & terry challinoor are still showing the younger generation top club riders the way home.
    Arthur`s not a slouch on the hill climbs either!
    Total respect.., dave.

      Dave ,

      I think AKB is probaly the best all round rider of that period .

      speeday , grasstrack , enduro , ISDT , road racing , motocross , trials .

      Not many made their mark like him .

        Hi Chris,

        I hope you're doing well. Thanks posting the photo. Was this the G/P where Vic Allan was leading and doing well against the Works Suzuki's?

        How did the Greeves team do?

        Regards,
        Kenny
