Brian L 2 Posted December 4, 2006 Watch this clip and see if you can identify all the Hackney riders standing behind Len Silver Your knowlegdge of Hackney riders would have to stretch the 40's. 60's, 70's & 80's for this! Up the Hawks (Wolves & Kestrels)! http://www.vsocial.com/video/?d=42786 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shazzybird 10 Posted December 4, 2006 (edited) I can name 5 possibly 6. Had another look so it's now 6 possibly 7 If I cheat I'll get all of them but am proud of the ones I managed to recognise Edited December 4, 2006 by shazzybird Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I hope you got the one on Len's left, but you will need to cheat and look at your photographs to get the rider, behind the rider behind Len!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shazzybird 10 Posted December 4, 2006 I'm getting there and now can name 9 ish not a confident 9 but each time I watch I can name another now I know who that is behind Uncle Len as I was introduced to him but............. reckon I was full of vodka by then and now have to re-trace my steps to remember his name and I'm kicking myself for this as it was Monty that introduced me to him.

shazzybird 10 Posted December 4, 2006 Oh it was Summer Pat definately Summer July 2005 absolutely beautiful evening with fantastic company, Infact it was like a forum members meeting outside. Got 10 now! Need to get them all before Bryn gets on here and names them all The rider behind the rider behind Len if only he'd sidestep just once Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shazzybird 10 Posted December 4, 2006 Right think I got the rider behind the rider behind Len is it Dingle? if not then it's back to the drawing board Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brian L 2 Posted December 4, 2006 (edited) Nope, it's not Dingle. And I am telling the whole truth! I make it 15 riders that come into view including Len. And Banger looks like he's itching to pick up his beer Edited December 4, 2006 by Brian L Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
London Witch 57 Posted December 4, 2006 (edited) Not too sure about the related videos there, Brian!!! I spotted my all time hero, standing just behind and to the right (hand side)of Uncle Ted, wasn't interested after that.

Brian L 2 Posted December 5, 2006 LW Please don't tell me Bobby Mc was your hero Ok Brian think I'm up to 13 now but it is a really dodgy 13 <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Well, he was one of mine and it was great to meet him that night! 2 to go then! Anyone wanna try for all 15? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
London Witch 57 Posted December 5, 2006 Is Bobby Mc in the clip then? I think I prefer to remember them the way they were! My hero, is more of the Eastern European variety. In fact some things never change. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shazzybird 10 Posted December 5, 2006 I was just thinking that, now it seems more of a business than a hobby that might or might not make you a career Think it would be nice for a few other tracks to have a re-union like the Hackney one I really enjoyed that, Now a Rye House re-union that would be good Except me little Ashley Pullen wont be there bless him Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
