No brainer Joel Robert

That was my other guess but I thought his nose was different.Cant see much of the face. Body is solid like Robert or maybe geboers. Roger D was skinnier in those days.

Answer is;  Robert at British GP in 1968.  (Was that during his National Service year?)

Even though English is their first language, you would need an interpreter for the first two  ;D

MM, drag out the old Motor Cycle News, June or July 1978.  ;)

Shit! you guys must be old and not crashed too many times-at least not on your heads. I don't ever remember seeing Ivan Miller that thin!!

Interesting that first picture of Robert...according to the number plate colour it is a 360 (or 380)...open class anyway...he very rarely rode the big bikes unless in the 500cc Motocross Des Nations type stuff..
Title: Re: Who am I when?
Post by: pirie593 on September 18, 2009, 10:15:34 am
That was the last of the photos with riders which I thought would be known.  Will keep searching for others.  Have a friend who said he will drop around a box full of old "green horrors" and Motor Cycle News, so that could cough up a few more.

In the mean-time, I might throw in few really obscure ones  ;D

Post by: EML on September 18, 2009, 11:53:31 am
If any of those M/cycle News' have something on sidecar cross I would love to see them. My old boss at Mayfairs p/l in Brisbane used to get copies and I some times got to see some action and reports in them but I never got to keep any.

Malcolm never rode CZ/Jawa. He rode Cotton, AJS and Bults but never CZ/Jawa. He was also a regular visitor in Chez TooFastTim but toofast was but a pup at the time.
