Re: Rumble suzuki
Does he live here in Oz? If so, I saw him at SBK Phillip Island on the weekend.

Re: Rumble suzuki
That would probably be Derek Rumble Junior - he moved over there about 20 years ago - Derek Rumble Senior - still lives at Ormskirk...(he did last time I spoke to him)duncan wrote:Does he live here in Oz? If so, I saw him at SBK Phillip Island on the weekend.
It was Derek senior that built the bikes.

Re: Rumble suzuki
I bumped into to 'Old man Rumble' in Ormskirk on Saturday as we que'd for an ice cream in Thorntons, he was sporting his TTRA cap and was proud to tell my kids he used to race on the IOM from 1968-1990....
We spoke about various TT Parades and how the cost to those taking part was excessive when you consider they invite you as an ex rider to bring your machines over to the IOM and then all the costs involved.....
He told me he had converted his classic machine to hand change ,just in case he is invited to the Ormskirk Festival of speed sheduled for the August bank hollida 2011.
Anyway he was delighted to see my kids wearing TT colours, but didn't have a clue who I was,,,
