Obviously you have no idea, Bob, but do you have any idea why I would know? Edited May 5, 2020 by chunky Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iris123 20,938 Posted May 6, 2020 Indeed. Here is the article that has appeared on here already that the photo has been half inched from.

nw42 2,048 Posted May 7, 2020 I know these gustix threads are ridiculous but I find they are becoming one of my early ports of call each morning when I have my first brew, just to see what depths he has plunged to and how he has been found out again. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted May 7, 2020 (edited) I'm on parade nice and early, a shade battered and bruised maybe after the onslaught, but feel in fine mood for the day ahead. Re the now identified Geoff Woodger photo: norbold commented there were indications on the actual photo that it as Geoff Woodger. My response was that I could not see any such indication. I still can't. Where on the photo does it indicate the rider shown is Geoff Woodger. BTW I have never indicated that I did not know the rider was Geoff Woodger. My initial caption read "...Can you name this West Ham rider and possibly/hopefully give some career details and when please?..." That would indicate I had placed the photo as an item to stimulate some response from other forum members rather than of a rider who a rider who I did not know.

Easy My good deed done for the day, nice and early The thing is, if you knew who it was why didn't you help out on the thread you copied the pic from ?
