I'm the editor of Classic Bike Guide magazine and I've been trying to trace what became of and the whereabouts of John Robinson, the former passenger of Fritz Scheidegger.
I've been told that he runs a business manufacturing F1 race car petrol 'tank' rubber bladders on an industrial estate at Castle Donington but I don't know how true that is. If you could ask around your members I would be very much obliged, as I would like to talk to him for a feature in the magazine. I've asked around many of his contemporaries but have drawn a blank, likewise I can find no mention anywhere of this alleged business.
John Robinson?

Re: John Robinson?
I think a lot of ex riders/ passengers on here would like to know how he is?

Re: John Robinson?
this fuel-tech company is at Castle Donington, so a phone call could be handy:

Re: John Robinson?
I've had an email from Dane Rowe re: John Robinson. Interesting stuff but I'm not going to post any of that of course 
I'll let her do that if she feels the need to share it.
I didn't realise they were related though til Dane told me.
She might have something to share with us soon which she has told me about, we'll wait and see if she really wants to share that too but Bob RP and IanW I'm sure would love to see it

Re: John Robinson?
Love to see it? I'd give a week's wages. Only problem is I don't get any now 
It is true about the sidecar family - you can stop racing but you can never, ever leave!
