The Place

Hello, I dont no anything about bikes , but I hoped you might be able to help me trace photos of a Bill Davie and Robert Hopkins, they raced in the TT in 1984 to 1992. It will seem stange to you, but I am trying to get a picture of the bus they carried the bike and sidecar in. It would of been in about 1987/8 they had an old Bedford bus with a back door conversion. Any pointers of where to look would help. Thanks.

Do you want to get in touch with Bill? He is registered on here although I don't think he's been on for a few weeks.

Thanks I have asked him but strangely he doesn't have any pictures of the bus.

Hang on I'll take you off the moderation queue.. ok that's done

Link to those 80's paddock photo's -sorry, no sign of a Bedford Bus though

Not a Bill Boddice hand-me-down perhaps

Bus they had was the one used in the film THE ITALIAN JOB, ended up going to scrap

Yes thats why I am trying to find a picture. I remember seeing it in apx 1998.

OOPS 1988 not 98 !
