The Place

Anyone remember the outfit called Fireball XL5 and who rode it, mid to late 60's

Remember seeing it many times but names elude me. Nice flaming paint job though

Thats the one Bob, i had my money on you to have the answer someone will have a name im sure

But who will be the first with a photo

I suspect that someone may be along shortly Richard

I will as Daph to enquire with some of the older statesmen on her annual pilgrimage to the Skegness 16 inch wheel dinner next week.

Alan Banbury rode it, report live from Daph at Skegness.

Thanks Daph

It was Frank Godfrey who came up with the name Jim we had a lovely evening meeting up with some old friends, and the meal and venue was great as was the guest speaker Peter Hickman.

May have to return next year Daph nice to see you and John

First time I remember XL5 was 1964 at Silverstone.

Meanwhile, back to topic ....

Paul is right it was Alan Banbrick, not Banbury as mention earlier

You can tell Frank about his mistake at the 16" Wheelers in Jan

Assume you will be sunbathing on the beach Daph ,but not at Skegness
