spin king 1,921 Posted November 19, 2007 Russ Hodgson, i was a big fan of him, to me one off the best reserves Belle Vue ever had, shame he had to partner Geoff Pusey one of the worst. I'm pretty sure Emil Sova died a few years ago, heart trouble i think ?. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Russ has already been done. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
marron 7 Posted November 19, 2007 (edited) Steve Wilcock + 'Mad Dog' Martin Dixon Not sure if they have been done but i have heard so many stories about them both when they rode at Cleveland Park it would be good to read about them.

spin king 1,921 Posted November 23, 2007 I wonder if it is about rider that I am not sure what his name was, but I seem to remember was called Jon Jon White, never really made it as rider, but was very much a character, renowned for wearing black leathers in the 80's and a black bike.
