Recommended Posts

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)! :)

I can name 5 possibly 6. :unsure:

 

Had another look so it's now 6 possibly 7 :unsure:

 

If I cheat I'll get all of them :wink: but am proud of the ones I managed to recognise :approve:

Oi no cheating ;)

 

Only 7 ? 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!!!

I'm getting there and now can name 9 ish :lol: 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.

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 :)

I was just thinking that, now it seems more of a business than a hobby that might or might not make you a career :cry:

 

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 :approve: Except me little Ashley Pullen wont be there bless him :cry:
