Eddy Wright - is he really that old??

Happy Birthday Eddy!

Did you spend all day in the workshop fitting the 1040 or has Reg fixed the 1200? Or has Helen been tending to your every need - well it is your birthday.

It may be too late but DON'T WATCH THE FOOTBALL!!

Best wishes

Ian, Jane and Team Banshee

Thanks Guys. You will all be pleased to know I am not fitting my ultra fast 1040 for Anglesey. The 1170 motor is in good health and will be going back in the chassis in the next few days.

I am holding the 1040 in reserve for the race of the year.

and us! We had a good excuse - our first national and the smallest engine in the field ;)
We came 10th in that heat, just missing out on the final 8-)
Dunno who won the final, Norman, Rusty (brilliant at Cadwell) or the Horsepoles from the other heat :?

Don't do that Eddy - what would RP's new name be :?: :?:
It is true about the sidecar family - you can stop racing but you can never, ever leave!
