Anyone seen him lately Maybe in some far off power station

Found Bob at a far off power station , he might be along here soon

Welcome Bob

Can't find that Scarborough pic anywhere..............John,have you still got it

Bob Bryson: Yes, I am still working on Nuclear Power stations, currently in Suffolk, very sad to hear about Julie Bayley, I have some fond memories of Julie and Derek when we were racing all those years ago, my last race with Derek was the 1986 French Grand Prix, It seems a long long time ago, but good memories

Nice to hear from you Bob, brings back many happy memories of the early 80's. was only watching a video the other day of you both battling with Jock and Mr Ireson at Mallory. Good times. Alan Warner

If I can remember correctly it was the post TT, at Mallory Park, it was a 20 lap race and we had a good ding dong with Jock and Clever Trevor, I think that the lap record was broke several times in the race, and I was completely knackered after the race. we were leading on the last lap approching the esses and Jock Taylor cut the corner, went on the grass and passed us just before the hairpin. I was sure he would bin it, but as usual he just kept going and got to the line first, great race

The Scarborough pic , courtesey of John Newton...Thanks John

The picture above is what I think all sidecars should look like.... classy and you can see the sidecar wheel...

I think I only passengered Derek at Scarborough once, it was a little tight in places, as you can see by the piccy, and I think we also broke the lap record ? , anyway I didnt go back, I thought it was for loonys!!!

So who's is the sidecar next to them in the bottom picture.

Looks like Jock and Benga to me ...

Yup, I can confirm that that was Jock & Benga, I think the race was the "Sidecar Race of the Year" at mallory, and was on the telly,
